Apple refreshes iMac with M6 chips, starting at $1,499
The Verge reports Apple updated the iMac with M6 chips, skipping M5, with prices from $1,499 and a design that otherwise looks largely unchanged.
Apple introduced a new iMac generation with M6 chips on Tuesday, The Verge reported, ahead of the company's Pro and Tell event scheduled for Wednesday1.
Prices start at $1,499, and the all-in-one desktop's design otherwise appears largely unchanged, according to that account1. The machine uses the same chipset Apple launched with the Mac mini in August, The Verge said1.
The refresh comes two years after Apple's colorful M4 iMac overhaul, skipping the M5 series on this hardware1. The Verge said the M6 is Apple's first 2nm chip and includes a dual 16-core Neural Engine intended to boost on-device AI tasks1.
M6 configurations start from a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU, up from the 8-core CPU available on the M4 iMac, according to the report1. Independent confirmation from Apple's product pages was not reviewed for this filing.
