Kuo: 24-Inch iMac With New Design to Launch in Fourth Quarter of 2020
Earlier this week, Kuo claimed that this redesigned iMac will be one of Apple’s first two Mac models with a custom Arm-based processor, with the other being a future 13-inch MacBook Pro.
Following years of rumors, Apple today confirmed its plans to switch to its own processors for its Macs, promising “incredible” performance and features. Apple said that it plans to release its first Mac with custom silicon by the end of 2020, and it expects to transition its entire Mac lineup away from Intel processors within around two years.
In the meantime, Kuo expects Apple to refresh its existing Intel-based iMac in the third quarter of 2020, which encompasses July through September. It is unclear if this model will feature a new design. Apple last redesigned the iMac in 2012.
A last-minute rumor suggested that Apple was going to unveil its redesigned iMac at WWDC, but the keynote did not include any hardware announcements.
