I don’t get why are they using different arrow keys on MacBook and external keyboards? I love the short left and right keys on my new MacBook Pro, I wish they had it consistent, muscle memory is a bitch
I got so used to the Apple logo on the chin bar that removing it makes it looks like a knockoff product.
The 4 identical ports, 2 with Thunderbolt icons feels like a real swing and a miss at cleaner UX. Is it really that infeasible to just make all identical ports behave identically? My parents have a story about how at age 6 I moved our Apple IIGS into my bedroom. They were more bewildered than angry. The one thing I remember is my older brother saying how because every port was uniquely shaped even a child can set up…
(It’s a limitation of the I/O bandwidth on the M1, which makes me wonder why they didn’t wait for a new generation before building desktops with it. Maybe they were afraid of having no iMacs on the shelf since the old ones were discontinued?)
Did I see it correctly, that the iMac only comes with 8GB Ram configurations? Doesn't the MacBooks come with an 16GB option?
macOS is not windows that OS and the apps over there are supper efficient it is the same story as iPhone vs Android phones, android always needed 2x more ram/battery than iPhones because the android ecosystem is bloated and slow, just like windows

Just another proprietary cable for them to sell. It is so funny the fan base just goes along with it too.
And people and reviewers lamented the loss of the proprietary MagSafe power...
Does it only come in a 24" configuration? It'd be nice to upgrade from my 9 year old 27" iMac but I'd hate to have a smaller screen.
I suspect this device is targeted towards kids and students (as evidenced by the colours and the choice of voice actor), and Apple wants adults and workers to buy a (more expensive) future iMac Pro with a bigger screen.
Can't wait to see the teardown, I wonder how much of it is glued together. Who wants to bet that despite there probably being no pressing need to do so, the SSD will be permanently soldered onto the motherboard rather than as a M.2 NVME card?
It would be amusing if they were using the same board across all their devices (i.e. Air, Pro, iMac) and the only variation was the cooling solution.

Why does a stationary computer need to be so thin that they can't fit an ethernet port and have to place it in the charger?
It doesn't need to be but it is. What are you gonna do, bloat the case just to fit an Ethernet adapter? Also, what's wrong with it being in the charger? This is actually genius, this way only a single cable leads to the machine itself.
Jokes aside, putting the connection on the power brick actually seems like a really smart idea for cable management under the desk. And, you will have one fewer cable plugging into the back.
