Apple iMac upgrades to Intel 10th Gen CPU and Radeon Pro 5000

Apple suddenly updated its website with the model Apple iMac 272020, whose price was 14,399 dollars. According to the renderings published on the official website, the appearance of the device remains unchanged, and the much-maligned oversized bezels are not narrower. Apple announces updates the 27-inch iMac processors to Intel’s 10th-generation Comet Lake and also switches the webcam to a high-resolution 1080p sensor instead of the low-resolution 720p found on other Macs.

Although the screen frame has no improvement, the screen display effect or certain additional upgrades, mainly the addition of TrueTone, the function allows the screen in different lighting conditions to adjust the screen color temperature to ensure the display effect; In addition, the iMac 272020 also supports optional nano-textured glass, the technology on the ProDisplayXDR display was first introduced to reduce the glare common with mirrored displays by adding a texture to the glass that is invisible to the naked eye, making the reflection of light on the screen diffuse.

SSDs are now standard across the board, and there will be many new configuration options – including a “nanostructured” version with less reflective frosted glass.

The 27-inch Apple iMac starts at $1,799 and is available for order now and ready to ship this week. The 21.5-inch iMac starts at $1,099 and ships next week. Apple is also giving the iMac Pro a small boost by introducing the 10th-generation Intel chips for $4,999, which will also ship next week.

The Apple iMac 2020 looks identical to the latest generation, including the large black bezel around the display and the large metal chin on the bottom. These are not the aforementioned ARM-based iMacs that were announced some time ago.
