With the M4 chip, the new iMac achieves up to 1.7x faster performance for everyday tasks and up to 2.1x faster performance for intensive workflows, like photo editing and gaming, compared to the M1 version. The built-in Neural Engine makes iMac a leader in all-in-one AI capabilities, supporting Apple Intelligence—a personal intelligence system that enhances productivity, communication, and creative expression while ensuring user privacy.
