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

• 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

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.

do you have nightmares about the notch? LOL

 

[fwmireault]

I really doubt the 2000$ starting price with all these great specs, but we can only wish it’s true

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

The notch is coming.

It's so extra!

 

[jz0309]

I'm still baffled about the HDMI port, and yes, I realize that some want a 2nd display but ...

Maybe I am too used with the notch but I actually find it looks great 😅

 

[Bustycat]

It will have a chin and a notch.

 

[anthonymoody]

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.

 

[dlewis23]

It will have a chin and NO notch. Very excited to get one.

 

[fragnssim]

Continuo a sperare in una versione da 30" o 32"

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?

 

[arefbe]

Shouldn't the headline be "Everything We Guess Summarized"

 

[anthonymoody]

Continuo a sperare in una versione da 30" o 32"

I'd love that too, but you might be sperare-ing for a while...

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

It will have a chin and a notch.

What about Apple wheels for the iMac? 😂

 

[azentropy]

do you have nightmares about the notch? LOL

I have nightmares about a notch and white/light grey bezels.

 

[HiVolt]

LOL. These "rumors" are always hilarious. It's just ideas mish-mashed together from recently updated products and hoping they will stick.

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

 

[e1me5]

10 GBit Ethernet as standar.

 

[rpmurray]

I'm going to be so disappointed if it has only an M1 Pro/M1 Max chip. Or only comes as a 27 inch. And if they're going to use the "Pro" moniker then it better come with four Thunderbolt and four USB ports.

Edit: Forgot to add, I'd REALLY like to see it come in an all black design.

 

[bradman83]

It's cute that MacRumors keeps trotting out these iPad-Pro-on-a-stand renders of the new iMac that they used before the 24" came out like the final product isn't going to have a chin bigger than Jay Leno's.

 

[diamornte]

It’s not going to cost $2,000
