In terms of look and, quite honestly, the majority of its functions, the Apple iMac M3 2023 is the same as the 2021 model. This is amazing since it has a beautiful 24-inch high-resolution display, a superb overall design, and comes in up to seven colors with matching accessories. The big difference is what’s powering its performance: Apple’s M3 silicon. It’s quite a change, too.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

The M-series CPUs from Apple, which put an end to Intel inside, are found in the second generation of iMacs released this year. The 2021 model was equipped with an M1, and Apple skipped past its M2 chips in favor of the new M3 hardware that was unveiled with the upgraded 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro laptops in this iMac. The performance is unquestionably outstanding in every way.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At $1,299 (\u00a31,399, AU$2,199), the entry-level M3 iMac offers an eight-core CPU and eight-core GPU, 8GB of unified memory, and a 256GB SSD for storage. The $2,299 model that I tested has a 10-core GPU, 24GB of RAM at maximum capacity (compared to 16GB on the M1 iMacs), and greater storage.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the iMac, Apple now offers three configuration starting points, and it’s not too difficult to figure out how they differ. All you’re getting with the third option is an increase in storage from 256GB to 512 GB. There are only two versions: the base model, which costs $1,299, and the step-up model, which costs $1,499; both may be customized with more memory and storage as well as extra accessories. Still, there are enough differences to justify spending the extra $200.<\/p>\n\n\n
