True, though I wonder how many will actually be watching movies on an iMac as opposed to say their big screen TV. Watching movies on my desktop setup with my office chair has never been a thing for me.
The problem is, the whole font of these new 24" iMacs is made of glass.
In contrary, the old iMac had the chin just made of aluminium.
You just need a simple sticker, if you want an Apple logo on the new 24" iMacs. How that would look is another question.
I don't know, why they didn't make an etching inside the glass or directly on the coloure aluminium chin.
looks smaller than the official apple reveal video
I have a question for people who own iMac and MacBook Pro or air.. up close 227 ppi v 218ppi is any difference up close ?
thanks

Imagine a future where people hold off on redecorating their rooms because their Mac won't compliment the scheme any longer...
Considering the technological constraints* Apple designers had at the time, previous gen iMac design is better. Even though they had to have a chin and larger screen bezel, it still looks modern, balanced and justified.
May be some of us are tired of it because it's been out for such a long time, but I'd guess that this new design is not that future proof to last that long. If I haven't ever seen an iMac, I'd pick the older design.

After watching the video, my thoughts are the same - aluminium iMac we've known in recent years is still so much more elegant. Even chin looks bigger without the logo. Adding M1 and color option is nice, that's about it. Really hoping bigger "Pro" version will bring back some of the mature elegance.
what apple has to do with this video?
Why all this fusss with this video...when the review embargo is lifted in less than 4 hours...
what a**l means?
Embargo for the imac lifts at 9Am EST...and for the ipads tomorrow at the same time
The black border has also been my main complaint about white-colored front plates on older gens iPhones and iPads for years, so annoying and never gets used to it after all this time. That's also the main reason I always went for grey shades.. Thanks God Face ID devices use black display border (regardless of the backplate color). The new iMac is surely a one-step forward and 3-steps backward in terms of design.
The packaging makes you want to never throw the box away!! I like the brilliant color.
What kind of connector is that power cord?
The Touch ID will be great. I use it constantly when using with my notebooks.

If the Pro machines look anything like this I'm going to keep my 2019 and 2012 models for a while.
Do you mean, what does Apple have to do with this video? A lot.
They provided this channel with an iMac, under embargo, to review and share later this week. No different from people like iJustine, MKBHD etc.
Ergo, Apple provided the iMac. They CHOSE this channel to go on to share/review the iMac when the embargo is lifted. Why did Apple pick this poor quality channel, is the question.
So basically a biased video then, hence one of the reasons I stopped watching Ijustine, MKBHD etc.
I like his videos, but he uses far to much the "leak bomb" word on tittles, I started to skip some of them now.
