Apple’s $1,299 M4 iMac at long last bumps the base model to 16GB of RAM Andrew Cunningham | usagoldmines.com

Apple’s week of Mac announcements kicks off today with a new lineup of 24-inch iMacs, Apple’s first Macs to launch with the M4 processor from this spring’s iPad Pros. The new models still start at $1,299 can be preordered starting today and will begin arriving on November 8.

Processor aside, the biggest functional upgrade to the base model may be the bump from 8GB to 16GB of RAM, the first time Apple has bumped up the RAM in a base-model Mac since 2012. The base iMac’s price is staying the same at $1,299, effectively saving you $200 compared to the M1 and M3 models. Base storage remains the same at 256GB, though it is at least possible to add external storage; there’s no way to add RAM to a Mac after you’ve bought it.

The new iMacs also come with tweaked versions of the existing Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, and Magic Trackpad accessories that use USB-C ports for charging rather than Lightning ports. These were some of the last remaining Lightning products in Apple’s lineup; the iPhone SE, iPhone 14, and Apple TV remote are still keeping Lightning alive for now.
