The editors didn't like
Expensive compared to Windows systems
Connectivity ports are inconveniently placed on the back of the iMac
Same strengths as 2012 iMacs; thin edges; decreased screen glare; faster than predecessors
Same weaknesses as 2012 iMacs; no optical drive; no RAM upgradability in 21in models, from $1599
The new iMacs have the same strengths and weaknesses as the 2012 iMacs that ushered in the current design: strikingly thin edges and decreased screen glare, but at the cost of eliminating the optical drive from the iMac line and RAM upgradability in the...
Haswell processors, 802.11ac, Beautiful slimline design, Nvidia 7 Series graphics, Good custom build options
No optical drive, Limited upgrade options, £50 or £100 more expensive than last year, No Hyper Threading on standard processors, Didn't get a Retina screen option

Other big-screen all-in-one systems have handy extras missing here, such as touch screens and HDMI inputs
Anyone who bought last year's redesigned iMac doesn't need to upgrade, but for owners of older models or anyone looking to switch, the latest 27-inch Apple iMac offers a wide-ranging set of internal upgrades....
I'm going to keep this brief: the Apple 27-inch iMac with Retina 5K display is fantastic. I love it. Even though it's long in the tooth, I'd totally buy one if I had the money, and the only thing that would give me pause for thought – aside from the non-a...
This new range of iMacs benefits most from the price drop when compared to last year's line up. While there is the new £899 model on offer, we think it will be worth paying the £150 extra to upgrade to the 2.7GHz model.Share this articleFind the b...
Abstract: The 21-inch version of the iMac has found its way into reception areas in many businesses as a kind of technological fashion statement. However, its 27-inch big brother is a different proposition altogether. The iMac’s large, high-resolution display has a...
