8 GB of RAM is a thing of the past: the new Apple iMac offers at least 16 GB

The base configuration of the new iMac with the Apple M4 processor offers 16 GB of unified RAM. Users have criticized Apple for using only 8 GB of base RAM since 2012, when the first MacBook Pro was introduced with a Retina display.

Notably, Apple still sells the M3 14-inch MacBook Pro, M3 iMac, and M3 MacBook Air laptops with 8GB of RAM as base RAM, forcing consumers to pay $200 extra for the extra RAM.

It is expected that all future Mac computers from Apple will be offered with at least 16 GB of unified (built-in CPU) RAM. According to Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman, Apple is testing four new Mac models, all of which offer 16 or 32 GB of memory.

The new iMacs feature a 24-inch Retina display with 4.5K resolution. A special nano-coating is available as an option for the display to reduce glare. The all-in-one is also equipped with a new 12-megapixel Center Stage camera with a wide-angle lens and Desk View mode, which allows you to simultaneously show the user and an overhead view of his workplace.

The new computer also offers up to four Thunderbolt 4 ports, up to 32 GB of unified memory and new accessories in the color of the all-in-one PC, equipped with a USB-C connector. The new iMac starts at $1,299.

Pre-orders for the new iMac are open today. Deliveries of the new monoblock will begin on November 8. Apple is also expected to introduce new MacBook Pro laptop models and a new Mac Mini nettop this week.
