Prosser is a poser. His intel is more often incorrect than it is correct.

Prosser: 2021 iMac to Come in Five Colors, Apple Silicon Mac Pro to Resemble 'Stacked' Mac Minis

He only saw the front of a prototype model and was told about the colours being similar to the iPad Air. Afterwards, some design guy did what he could with this information. The iMac won't look anything like this. It was the same with the AirPods Pro Max, Prosser came very close but not 100%.
I'll just leave this here...
Jon Prosser: 73.9% accurate - AppleTrack
Reporting on leaks for years on his YouTube channel, Front Page Tech, Jon Prosser only became a source in 2020 and made a name for himself by sharing the iPhone SE (2020) release date before anyone else. Rumor accuracy Rumor list 2021 October October product embargo, link MacBook Pro Monday...

Whether he's right or wrong about the look of the Mac Pro, I am intrigued how much it will cost free of Intel. The Mac mini isn't quite beefy enough for my needs, but I'm not in the several thousand dollars game.
So disappointing. I was really hoping for a block and tackle based computer that could easily handle some heavy lifting.
Question. In the Apple Silicon world, what's the benefit of an iMac over a Mac mini with a good third-party display?
one can only guess same difference as before. that the imac, at least at the higher end, will have a better gpu and perhaps cpu.

Same here. The rumors have been that there would be a new Mac Pro akin to the current one and a new smaller one that mimics the Cube. It'd be great if they could price that new one as a middle of the road solution with monitors to match.
Accurate on what? That a new iPhone and macs are coming this year? Well yeah! He has been wrong on all long shots and this is what matters most - predicting things that nobody expects or only few believe and being right.
Those old iMacs look better than the new ones. Bring back the CRT screens!
I honestly don't believe he is correct about the Mac Pro at all. They are not going to go from this huge expansive super tower that is universally praised for its expansion to some small trashcan again. They've learned this lesson.
Now if they're going to make a Mac Pro and a Mac Pro Max then sure that's certainly logical and I accept that, but I'm not going to accept them axing what the current Mac Pro represents (huge expansion for professionals). It's just not happening after last time.

Silver, Space Gray, Black and maybe the blue that matches iPhone 12/AW6 would be neat. I think the pink, green and Sky Blue are horrible for something like an iMac. The bright colors were fine on the first iMacs because that was the style Apple was all about back then…they were funky and interesting and Apple really needed a way to stand out from PC’s of the day. I know they use these pastel colors on the iPad Air but those are just different machines altogether from a desktop computer.
It is. And he's had specific, exact dates right on both Apple and Android products many times...Yes he has been wrong but so has every single other leaker. Many people here are delusional, sadly.
I think so as well, I am assuming the hinge will be kept simple but reflect the more rectangle approach as well (the look on prosser image look a bit off - rectangle screen but same old hinge); dream would be similar hinge to the magic keyboard (so that you can adjust the rotation of the screen as well as the height), but it would probably require more counterweight...
It's always annoying that Apple ties those together.
If you want a better CPU and more GPU cores, then you've got to buy an integrated display.
If you don't want an integrated display, then you have to buy a less capable CPU/GPU.
