You know they have to give them back, right? They’re review units, not gifts.Doesn’t matt mean less contrast ratio? Also it’s not fair these you tubers all get given free machines especially when they have money

They have more intel Mac products coming, support for years, and its close to 2 Trillion, but beware this unusual marketplace. (stock price)everything new and shiny are kept for the next arm based imacs...is obvious and the right aproach...Apple wants to be a big redesign from form factor to their accessories . This is marketing from an almost 2 bil company
Nowadays, a computer lasts probably 5 years on average. It'd be hard to decide whether to get this one or wait for the armmacs.
That would almost certainly be a terrible idea, given how delicate it is and how prone to contact laptop displays are.
Given that people still use PowerPC Macs... 15+ years?
This design is a classic. It looks no less stunning just because it has been around for a while. And one benefit of the ”chin” is that it effectively raises the height of the actual display and the webcam to where you want them to be. I think the 27-inch iMac is to computers what the Boeing 747 is to aircraft -- yes, an old design, but nonetheless one that remains impressive every time you see it. It is still unmatched in terms of style among desktop computers.I for one love the look of these iMacs. I don't get this unending problem with bezels. I never notice them, they don't bother me. Besides, without the bottom "chin" or whatever it's called on these iMacs, where would you put your post-it reminders??
At least my late 2015 27" 5K looks the same as the current models, for just a while longer.
man the hype train is going full steam. The new iMac is way overkill for almost all those who now have to do office work at home.
How many new Work At Home employees would have received a new 2020 company issued iMac if they were still working in the office?
Agree. And it is somewhere to park your post it notes.I'm one of those who don't get the bezel problem. On a phone it makes sense since you have to hold it. But a 2-in. wider screen on my desk isn't a big deal. I have a narrower LG monitor attached and never think about the difference.
But FaceID or TouchID should a feature.
$500 to etch the screen!
Trillion. Almost two trillion (1.95T today) 😳everything new and shiny are kept for the next arm based imacs...is obvious and the right aproach...Apple wants to be a big redesign from form factor to their accessories . This is marketing from an almost 2 bil company
Wondering how long these things will be usable, considering the switch to ARM. Maybe 5 years max?
Although I need an upgrade, this is too lacklustre to purchase.
- Same outdated design
- No face ID login
- No backlight on keyboard
- Nothing to get excited about

Here's the breathless hyperbole from the Gizmodo article that was quoted in the OP:
"On Geekbench 4, a synthetic test of overall system performance, the iMac’s single-core score of 6382 and multi-core score of 42417 impressed us all. Joanna Nelius, Gizmodo’s resident PC and processor expert, exclaimed: 'What the hell did Intel do to this CPU?'"
And here's the reality:
The single-core GB4 results they found for the 2020 iMac with a 3.6 GHz 10-core 10th-gen Intel i9 are only 3.7% faster than than that for the equivalent 2019 machine (3.6 GHz 8-core Core i9-9900K): 100 – 6382/6157*100 = 3.7%.
And the per-core multicore results are only 5.1% faster:
100 – 42417/10/(32293/8)*100 = 5.1%
Doesn’t matt mean less contrast ratio? Also it’s not fair these you tubers all get given free machines especially when they have money
32 GB of storage is apparently too powerful for Mashable. I bought the 2019 MacBook Pro with 4 TB of storage.
For starter, design the stand so it can go up/down not just tilt up/down. Then add the face ID, target display mode, backlit keyboard, and expand the screen to the edge.What design change want in iMAC ? Something is well designed and look great than why change ? Does BMW for the last few decades changed it's front grill(two kidney looking) design ? NO. Because it is timeless. Same for iMac.
