Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman says Apple has no plans to debut a new 24-inch iMac until late 2023 at the earliest. That prediction comes from Gurman’s most recent newsletter, where he says he expects Apple to skip an iMac with an M2 chip and will instead wait to release a model powered by an M3 chip.
“I haven’t seen anything to indicate there will be a new iMac until the M3 chip generation, which won’t arrive until the tail end of this year at the earliest or next year,” wrote Gurman. “So if you want to stick with the iMac, you’ll just have to sit tight.”
The as-yet-unannounced M3 chip is expected to be manufactured using TSMC’s latest 3nm process, providing additional performance and power efficiency improvements.
Apple last updated the iMac in April 2021, powering it with the M1 chip. The iMac boasted a new ultra-thin design and was available in seven colors, including green, yellow, orange, pink, purple, blue, and silver.
