I agree it looks a little weird without it. I also don't like the softer colors on the front and the darker on the back. Should all be one color.
The colours are ok by me , wish they were a bit more defined tbh , looks wishy washy
The missing apple logo and the still huge chin really is annoying to me

You’ve cross-posted this “missing apple logo” grievance to at least three different iMac threads within the last hour.

Now we know what all those Apple stickers sitting in countless varieties of Apple boxes were needed for! The chin!!

I think they should do away with the chin. Instead bring on the notch!!!
Disappointed that there is no logo in the front . Why ever should they remove something that is truly iconic?????

There must be a pretty good reason for Apple keeping the 'chin'.

It's an incredibly strange choice in design.
It's as if the designer forgot to put the Apple logo on the front of it.

Yep, the cooling fans and the speakers. Either that, or make it thicker, or use crappy speakers and no fans, like an iPad.
But damn it looks ugly.
I don't think you people get it.
If the bezels are black and the logo is still there, it looks EXACTLY like a 2007 iMac.
This is why it was done. To make lipstick on a pig.

My thoughts exactly! Why stop at one apple logo on the front when we can now have 3 splashed across the chin 🖥️ for better viewing angles lol! 😅
Slap another apple sticker on the back atop the the existing logo for Apple inception. 😱

OT
Did anyone actually ever use the apple remote to beam iR signals through the Apple logo to control iTunes/DVD/CD playback?
Logo removed so thieves think its just a HP all in one?

Doesn’t matter to me, doesn’t annoy me. If you want the Apple logo on it I believe the box it comes in will have a sticker you can put on it if it annoys you that much.🤪

Why is having the Apple logo on the front so important? Is it an ego thing where you want to bring to anyone who sees it that you have a Mac?
I’ll openly admit that part of the allure of apple products is the prestige factor , what’s wrong with that ?
There you go , all with the apple logo on the front ..

Vanity is an empty ambition.

I think the issue is that without the Apple logo, it starts to look too much like a lot of the cheap iMac clones out there.
Edit: and I believe this is partially a vanity thing, but also partially that someone out there will mistake the two and be ripped off. I know this will already happen now but would like happen more-so with the new design.

Agreed. Also, at least apply the design consistently -- why have the logo on the front side of the Magic Mouse then?
