Last year, we saw Apple discontinue its 21.5 -inch Intel iMac post the launch of the new 24-inch redesigned iMac early in 2021. Yesterday, the Cupertino giant launched one of the most powerful all-in-one Mac desktops in the form of the Mac Studio alongside the 27-inch Studio Display. So now, the company has discontinued its 27-inch iMac model, eliminating the offering from its product portfolio.
This is a surprising move by Apple as it last updated the 27-inch iMac with SSDs, Intel’s 10th-Gen processor, and a nano-texture display in 2020. However, it seems like Apple now wants to offer only M1-powered iMacs across the board as customers only have the option to get last year’s 24-inch M1 iMac or get the latest Mac Studio powered by its M1 Max or the latest M1 Ultra chipset.
