The iMac Pro is dead and gone -- or is it? Apple could bring it back as the high-end sibling to the 24-inch iMac. If it does, here’s everything we could see.
When Apple killed off the iMac Pro and then completely removed the 27-inch iMac from its online store, we thought that was the end of the road for the larger all-in-one computer. Right now, Apple only sells one size of iMac: the smaller 24-inch version. But what about that gaping hole in the iMac lineup previously occupied by the 27-inch model?
And there’s another clue. On its website, Apple lists the 24-inch iMac as “iMac 24.” If it was going to be the only size option in the iMac family, it seems likely Apple would just call it “iMac,” as there would be no need for a differentiator. The inclusion of the measurements in the name could be read as an implication that there is another size on the way.
Design: Bright colors or muted tones? When Apple redesigned the iMac in April 2021, it brought back the classic, colorful look of the iMac G3 from 1998. The new iMac is kitted out in a range of snazzy colors, from pinks to yellows to blues, giving it a playful vibe that Apple hopes will make it down-to-earth and approachable, just like its G3 inspiration.
Bet on Apple silicon Still, the iMac Pro’s shape depends a lot on the chip that powers it. The 24-inch iMac felt like the first Mac that was designed around the benefits of Apple silicon, but that does not mean its higher-end sibling will go the same way. That might seem like a fitting chip for the iMac Pro, but if the device turns out to be a 27-inch iMac, it’s probably too high-end. More likely is the M2 chip that’s expected to make an appearance this year in the redesigned MacBook Air. That would be a more fitting chip for a consumer machine like the 27-inch iMac, while still offering a performance boost over the M1 in the 24-inch iMac, thus helping to differentiate the two machines.
