Almost two years after Apple announced the original 24-inch iMac with an M1 chip, Apple has updated the machine with a more powerful M3 chip. The latest upgrade was long overdue as the machine skipped the M2 chip upgrade. Apple's new 24-inch iMac with an M3 chip is a competent device, and the company has spared no expense regarding the internals. According to the latest, the M3 iMac features more Unified Memory, features support for WiFi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.3.

M3 iMac features 24GB of Unified Memory, WiFi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.3

The new M3 iMac features the same design as the original M1 version, but the internals are where the device marks a difference. The M3 chip is based on TSMC's 3nm architecture, delivering advanced computational and graphical performance compared to the M1 chip. The company also saw fit to increase the Unified Memory from 16GB on the M1 iMac to 24GB on the new M3 iMac. This will allow the iMac to deliver faster computational performance while handling complex tasks.

Other than this, the new M3 iMac also comes with WiFi 6E, which will allow for a secure and reliable internet connection. Furthermore, the data transfer speeds would also improve. WiFi 6E will also allow the iMac to connect to 6GHz networks. Moreover, Bluetooth 5.3 is also part of the mix, allowing accessories to pair with improved connectivity and better range than before. Altogether, the company has significantly improved the machine, which would easily pass through another generational upgrade.

Externally, the device is the same as its predecessor, and it is also available in the same color options. The rest of the design has been kept the same amid rumors of a redesigned stand with more adjustable options. The M3 iMac starts at $1,299 for the base model and up to $1,699 for the M3 version with an 8-core CPU, a 10-core GPU, and 512GB base storage. You can get your hands on the device from Apple's online store.
