The 24-inch iMac got a major refresh in 2021, and in 2022, it's the larger 27-inch iMac's turn to get a design overhaul. We've been sharing "iMac Pro" rumors for a few months now, and today, we have a quick rundown of everything we might see in one bite-sized article and highlight video.



Feature List

  • 27-inch display
  • Mini-LED
  • 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate
  • Pro Display XDR-like design
  • Black bezels
  • M1 Pro/M1 Max chips
  • Thunderbolt ports, SD card slot, HDMI port
  • Ethernet port power adapter
  • iMac Pro naming to differentiate from 24-inch iMac
  • ~$2000 starting price
Release Date

We may not have too long to wait for the iMac Pro, with rumors this week pointing to a launch in spring 2022. If accurate, that means we could see the new iMac at a spring event, perhaps in March. Apple often holds its first event of the year in the spring, so the new iMac could be one of the first updated products of the year.

This is a Day 1 order for me, loaded, *UNLESS* they simultaneously announce new external monitors that play nice with the Pro/Max MBPs at 5k and/or 6k at prices that meaningfully undercut the XDR's price tag.

Nothing. You know absolutely nothing. There are unsubstantiated rumors and speculations but nothing is known until the machine is released. Stop claiming knowledge where there's at best tweeted conjecture.

Am I the only one annoyed by these cklick-baity "everything we know" headlines?
 
IMO:

Called an iMac Pro: Yes
27" MiniLED with ProMotion: Yes
Chin: Yes
Notch: No
HDMI: No
SD Card: Maybe
Ethernet: Yes (though maybe in the power brick)
M1 PRO and M1 MAX: Yes
M1 MAX Duo (Jade2C-Die): Maybe

At least one leaker did claim Apple wanted to keep the base price close to the Intel iMac 5K at around $2000. My guess is $2299-2499 for an M1 Pro with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD with BTO options up to 64GB RAM (with M1 MAX) and 8TB SSD.

I find it hard to get annoyed by a post on a site called "Mac RUMORS". If it really bothers people, jog on. Know, guess, speculate? I think we can all read between the lines.

Who pissed in your coffee this morning? You could have easily ignored the "click-baity" headline but you chose to:

A. Read it
B. Click on it
C. Responded to it

I'd say the problem lies with you more than Macrumors
