Twitter leaker spills some details on Apple’s plans for the larger-screen iMac.<\/b>
\nWith just a few Intel Macs remaining to be turned over to Apple silicon, there are still a couple of big models left waiting to get their \u201cM\u201d makeover. Chief among them is the 27-inch iMac, which still has the old look and old chip. According to Dylan (@dylandkt), who has accurately predicted details about the MacBook Pro, iPhone 13, and 24-inch iMac, has spilled a ton of details about the larger iMac that certainly sounds like the return of the iMac Pro, which was discontinued earlier this year, right down to the space gray enclosure. iMac (Pro) Promotion and Mini Led Base model 16gb Ram 512gb Storage M1 Pro and Max Dark bezels HDMI, SD Card, Usb C Similar design to iMac 24 and Pro Display XDR Starting price at or over 2000 dollars Ethernet on brick standard Face ID was tested (Not confirmed) 1H 2022 Dylan reports that the iMac will have the \u201csame M1 Pro and M1 Max\u201d as the MacBook Pro that launched last month. He also says the base model will come with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage like Apple\u2019s high-end laptops. Currently, the 27-inch iMac starts at 8GB of RAM, with options to expand to 128GB. Elsewhere, Dylan says the iMac will pick up the same ports as the MacBook Pro. While the current 27-inch iMac already has an SDXC card slot, an HDMI port, which would be the first time an iMac had a video port other than Thunderbolt\/USB-C. Dylan doesn\u2019t say whether the USB-A ports will be going away, though he does say the Ethernet port will be moved to the power adapter like the 24-inch model. As far as the display, Dylan says it will keep the same 27-inch screen, which is somewhat surprising considering the move from 21.5 inches to 24 inches with the M1 model in April. However, he does report that the panel will be getting the mini-LED and ProMotion treatment like the MacBook Pro (likely without a notch). He reveals that Face ID was \u201ctested\u201d but \u201cnot confirmed\u201d for the new model. Apple has yet to bring facial recognition to a Mac. He doesn\u2019t mention the resolution, but the current model has a 5K panel (5120 x 2880). As for the look, he only says it will have \u201cdark bezels\u201d and have a \u201csimilar design to iMac 24.\u201d Dylan says the new iMac will arrive in the first half of 2022. He previously reported that Apple delayed the launch of the iMac so it wouldn\u2019t compete for attention with the MacBook Pro.
