Some important information to keep in mind:

In April 2021, Apple introduced the 24-inch iMac, available in seven vibrant colors and equipped with the powerful M1 Chip. Take a look at our assessment of the 2021 24in iMac. Instead of releasing an update for the 27in iMac, Apple chose to discontinue it in March 2022. However, there are speculations about a possible new iMac Pro – find out more in our rumors section.

It is expected that a new iMac with M3 chip, possibly with a 24-inch display, will be released before the end of 2023. You can learn more about it here: New iMac 2023.

Upon release, the iMac models were priced as follows. However, it is worth noting that the prices in the United Kingdom have significantly increased since then.

Where can I purchase an iMac?

You have the option to purchase an iMac directly from Apple in the US or at Apple UK. However, there are numerous stores and Apple Premium Resellers globally that provide discounts on both new and older Mac models. Certain Mac retailers also offer considerable discounts on Apple products and accessories, allowing for potential savings of several hundred pounds on select iMac configurations.

However, be cautious. The Mac being sold by the reseller could be an older version compared to the one currently sold by Apple. We have noticed resellers promoting Macs with discounts based on their previous selling price by Apple, even when Apple has released a newer Mac at the same price – making the deal appear more appealing than it truly is. Therefore, make sure to verify the age and specifications of the device being sold and do not assume it is the latest model.

To estimate the value of the previous model, check out Apple’s refurbished store to see the price at which they are selling the older version (keep in mind that purchasing from Apple, even in a refurbished state, includes a one-year warranty).

Another method for cutting costs on a new Apple device is to take advantage of trade-in programs offered by Apple and other retailers. Learn more about how Apple’s trade-in program operates and how it can save you money.
