I just bought an iMac M3 for my use at home. The iMac in my office at work is 12 years old and it served me well until I recently retired. I ordered it was 24GB RAM and 1TB SSD. It’s screaming fast!

I've been using iMacs since 2005. My last 2 machines have lasted me 7 years with my latest being a a 2021 M1 iMac. I don't see that 7 year upgrade cycle changing for me as the M1 is more than capable for my needs and probably will be for a long time!

If u happen to upgrade from ur intel iMac to the M3 iMac, then I say this is a big upgrade. If u have an M1 iMac, I probably hold off for a year or two

100% agree!

Reviewers: "M3 is for normal people, office, social media, watching media..." Me and many people with M1: "Software development, video editing...". This M3 is faster than many recent high-end computers in recent years, computers that people were using to do all sort of heavy lifting stuff.

Final Cut works fine on the iMac. I have done over 100 videos for KZread on my M1 iMac. Your statements about using Final Cut Pro are demonstrably wrong. You should have tested it before posting false information. Yes my M1 iMac has 8GB of ram because they did not have a 16GB available. It surprised me that it was no problem. I would recommend getting the 512 GB hard drive because the 256GB is slower.

Love it❤, thank you for this informative video, Matt. Keep it up, really love your reviews

I bought a clever adapter on Amazon that elevates the Magic Mouse by about 15mm making it easier to hold and use. It also incorporates a MagSafe-compatible wireless charging coil which mates to the bottom of the mouse via a Lightning plug on the upper surface of the adapter. Placing the mouse on top of a charging pad or puck does three things: illuminates a white LED on the end of the adapter, disconnects the Bluetooth and commences wireless charging.

There are so many professional tasks that can be perform using this computer. If you are a writer, you don't need a crazy computer to do your job. I see lots of KZreadrs thinking that they need a pro computer to edit 4k videos. I draw digitally and this one should be more than sufficient, if you consider I use a 2013 iMac and is still powerful enough. I guess it depends on what to do. Excellent review, mate, keep it up!

Matt...GREAT video...thank you so much. I'm currently using an early 2019 iMac 27-inch Intel machine with a molasses-slow 1 TB "Fusion Drive" (ughhh). I added some memory myself when I bought it, and it's served well as a family desktop machine. I decided to upgrade to this iMac M3 24" in the top spec, and upgraded to 16 GB of memory and the 1 TB SSD in an attempt to future-proof a bit. I think your assessment is spot-on regarding the new iMac M3. It's not meant for power-users, however is quite suitable for about 90% of those that want a highly capable family desktop machine. And for those awaiting the release of a 27-inch iMac with Apple silicon...I think Apple has made it pretty clear over the last week that it's NOT forthcoming.

We love this knock on the door. This is super Great

Informative and comprehensive. Like a number of commenters I was on a 27” 2017 with the i7 chip. I recently sold it for more than Apple was offering as a trade. I was waiting for this new iMac but I’m underwhelmed. Fully spec’d it would be uber-expensive. Thing is the 4.5K screen (even though smaller than the 27) is attractive for photo editing. Going with the M2 Mini requires buying that expensive Studio Monitor that pushes the cost of entry way up. A conundrum.

@MattTalkTech

8 ай бұрын

Indeed! Getting a M2 mini and a Studio Monitor is more. But you would get a 27 inch screen and 5K display. If it was me wanting a great screen and M2 Mac desktop, I would get this iMac instead but with the 4x USB-C Ports

No one needs to spend $1,600 for a Studio Display. Buy a nice Samsung, Asus, Dell, or other 4K monitor. Save a ton of money and use it to spec out the M2 mini.

A really good walkthrough! When checking thermal, I missed the power adapter that got the Ethernet port. And also, what was the workload when checkinh thermal? Only Finder running? Any other apps? That's important info :)

If I had a choice, I'd love to get a 13inch MBA M2 in silver. My old laptop was a 2013 15inch Macbook Pro and it recently got broken. I think the new MBA is the best in terms of price, performance, and portability. By the way, love this new video on the imac M3! Keep the news coming!

When comparing All in one computers and you see that Dell is way cheaper like in the example in this video you also notice that Dell go for a 2K display while Apple is going for 4,5K. This is a classic Apple thing. Already when the first Mac came out in early 1984, that Mac 128k had a "hi res" display but it was a non-color display. I think it was not a black & white display, it was a grayscale monitor? This had to to with GUI and WYSIWG. So when writing a document and using the font that you want you should get that result also from the printer. At that time (early/mid 80s) you could use a color display, yes. But color displays had not that good enough resolution (pixel density). And there's a good reason why Apple wanna use "Retina" diplays. These cost more but it's worth it. Some customers might not agree and feel that 2K 24" is good enough. But Retina is the future and the price will come down by the years: more affordable. So it's these kind of factors why iMac cost more than similar PCs. It's also interesting to look at the history of iMac and the display panels being used, for the only or cheapest/smallest model: 1998-2002 15" CRT, G3 2002-2004 15" flat panel (the globe iMac), G4 2004-> 17" G5, later Intel Later -> 20" Later -> 21,5" Later-2021 21,5" Retina (?) 2021-today 24" Something like this. Maybe some year or so is not 100% correct: For the cheapest "1299 US dollar" model. You get the idea. It's a strategy from Apple that they use. Always improve. And at the same time being a company that wanna make profit. It's so obvious that the iMac development team always got the instruction that the cheapest model must cost 1299. So that's probably why the cheapst model is missing Touch ID and 2 extra USB-C ports for example. The display is VERY important for Apple's products. That's a conclusion. Macs began the transition to Retina in mid-2012 (WWDC 2012) with MacBook Pro 15, then MBP13 late 2012. Still selling non-Retina MBP. Later on, model by model got Retina. For iMac they started in late 2014 I think with 27" 5K (still selling 2,5K). As as it was possible to sell the 5K model at the lower price point they "killed" 27" 2,5K. They had the same strategy for 21,5" when moving from 2K to 4K. Look at Apple Vision Pro. Compare that to the competition. Apple got a super resolution! So what I believe is that Apple want all normal customers to not even think about things such as pixels. We don't wanna see pixels! And how to solve that? So many and so small pixels that we cannot see them. When looking at these classic photos from old cameras, you cannot see pixels. It's so good resolution. It's insane. It's that kind of experience that Apple want us to have with our Macs. So why did Apple not use Retina for Macs before 2012? Probably because it was too expensive. Apple couldn't fit it into the budget ("cost of parts"). Apple waited and hoped for THAT price reduction. Apple was also very early with Retina for smarphones with iPhone 4 in 2010. Sony Ericsson and Nokia had a few models 2010 and earlier with "Retina" or close to but those were not the high volume models. Apple did this with their high volume model very early. Going from 163 to 326 ppi. Samsung and some other launched phoned with 400-something ppi later on but Apple still used 326, some people complained that iPhone got a "bad ppi" but average people could probably never see the differnce. Now iPhone (non-SE) got that 400-something but that's probably because of the display makers that moved to higher ppi. This was a long story about displays and resolution/ppi. Apple will not "move back in time" with worse displays to sell a cheaper "all in one desktop Mac". Never gonna happen. And Apple never wanna compete with lower and lower price and have the goal to sell the cheapest products. Apple wanna sell the BEST products. And "the best products" is the most important thing in the balance between how good a product is and how much it cost - and at the same time sell millions of these every year and they don't wanna change the price to customer every week/month. We don't know exactly how many per year and IDC/Gartner can only speculate/estimate on that. What many people probably forget is that the first iMac in 1998 also costed 1299 dollar. Same as the starting price now in 2023-2024! Is a 1299 dollar product cheaper (for a customer) now than In 1998? Good question. Probably both yes and no, depends on how you count.

The M3 is only 25 seconds or 6% faster than the M1 on your video editing test. Thats not very impressive and not worth the upgrade over a base M1

Awesome video. Always so informative. Love the red color! ENTRY IPHONE 15 PRO MAX GIVEAWAY 🎉🎉🎉🎉 PICK ME 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Nice video though you use the worthless words “actual”l and “actually” too often.

"proper performance gains" - for WHAT? This iMac is capable of nearly for anything a professional uses a computer. Only those working in particular professions such as editing 8K video, or rendering complex sets of objects, etc. will need more a computer. The iMac finds its way into the offices of doctors, for example. Are not doctors professionals?

There's nothing new....its an M1 with an M3 chip inside

For an M3...this iMac is almost a toy. SHAME! No Pro, No CAPABLE RAM and STORAGE...No large screen...Lots missing. Pay a premium...for what? SAD

Good to be patient for the base M3 Mac Mini in 2024.

Apple made a massive mistake on the evening of the live launch . They made a big effort and made a statement of " SCARY FAST" Then they announced this pile of 💩 the M3 iMac there is nothing scary fast about the new iMac whatsoever .... Ok the new range of laptops are quicker . But they should've left out the this iMac . That was a mistake ... if they were going to include this iMac in there "scary fast" launch they should've launched an "iMac Pro or ultra " etc ..... Apple must think we all were born yesterday . No wonder their sale are going downhill they deserve what's coming to them ...... My feedback has no reflection on this KZread video and I appreciate the effort but has gone into this ...
