Report: Apple launching updated iMac with M6 chip and new colors later this year
After a two year hiatus, Apple is working on a new iMac with the M6 chipset and updated color options, per Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman . It should release “before the end of the year.”
Apple is set to unveil an updated iMac later this year, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. The refreshed iMac will feature the M6 chipset and new color options, according to the report. This marks the first time the iMac has received a refresh in two years, as the device had previously skipped the M2 and M5 chip families. While Apple didn't disclose the specifics of the new color options, the last refresh in 2024 only altered the shade of the existing seven color choices.
The iMac with M6 is anticipated to launch before the end of the year, signaling a significant update for the Mac lineup. Other Mac models set to arrive this fall include overhauled MacBook Pro models with touchscreens and Tandem OLED displays, new base model 14-inch MacBook Pro with M6, Mac Studios with M5 Max and M5 Ultra, and potentially a refreshed Mac mini with M6 and M5 Pro.
Apple's M6 chip will be the first Mac chip to utilize a 2nm process, although there will be no M6 Pro, M6 Max, or M6 Ultra models. Instead, the company plans to expedite the launch of the upcoming M7 family.
