M6 iMac Coming This Year in New Colors

Apple is readying new iMac models with an upgraded chip and new color options, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.

Apple iMac M4 hero feature
Writing in his latest Power On newsletter, Gurman says the new version is likely to be an updated 24-inch model with an M6 chip, replacing the existing M4 model that arrived in October 2024.

New colors are also said to be on the menu, though Gurman does not say what they are. The current ‌iMac‌ comes in seven colors, including green, yellow, orange, pink, purple, blue, and silver.

Otherwise, no major design changes are expected. Apple is reportedly developing a 24-inch ‌iMac‌ with an OLED display, but this won't arrive for several years.

"All signs point to the M6 models being close to launch," says Gurman, with the new models expected to arrive before the end of the year.

Several years?

To simply slap an OLED display on the thing?

I'll never buy 24" iMac ever, no matter what specs or price. I'll buy a 27" or 32" in a heartbeat.

Apple should put the Apple logo back on the front of the iMacs. They seem like a knock-off brand computer with out it.

The whole series of iMacs are just so ugly. What a shame. They used to have the most beautiful desktop computers in the Intel iMacs.

Still using the 27" 2020 last intel iMac with 128 GB RAM. I'll NEVER get a screen smaller than this, only bigger.
