Apple on Tuesday at its Spring Loaded event unveiled its newest line of iMacs, a rare refresh for what used to be one of the company’s most important products. The all-in-one devices are a major redesign of the current models, with slimmer borders around the screen and a flat back. The new model has a 24-inch screen, up from 21 inches, and an improved camera, microphone and speakers. The updated iMacs start at $1,299 (£1,249, AU$1,899) for four colors, including blue and red, and $1,499 (£1,449, AU$2,199) for a wider array of colors, including yellow, orange and purple, and more features. Preorders start April 30, and the devices will be available in the second half of May. A new 1080p camera is tailored to video calls, a key feature as millions of people around the world have been forced to work from home amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Apple said the camera has a larger sensor that helps it perform better in low light. The iMac’s keyboard also comes with Touch ID, the company’s fingerprint security sensor.
