After a two year hiatus, Apple is working on a new iMac with the M6 chipset and updated color options, per Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman .
It should release “before the end of the year.”
Apple’s M6 chip will be the first Mac chip based on the new 2nm process, though there reportedly won’t be an M6 Pro, M6 Max, or M6 Ultra chip – with the company instead accelerating the launch of the M7 family. Nevertheless, if you’ve been holding out for a new iMac, your wait shouldn’t be much longer.
All signs point to the M6 models being close to launch, and you should be able to buy one before the end of the year.
The iMac isn’t frequently refreshed. It skipped the M2 and M5 families of chips, and it’s still yet to receive a larger display option – with Apple instead directing high-end users to use a Mac Studio or Mac mini alongside a Studio Display. Nonetheless, Apple is preparing a new version with the M6 chip .
