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