New iMac with M2: Concept with Design and Specifications

With the arrival of the first M1-chip Macs, all eyes were on the iMac. This is a team that for years has been maintained with a conservative design and that with the renewal of the processors of the M range is expected to also change all its aesthetics. The great mystery is how it will end up being made and it has been a designer who has shown specifications and a design that without a doubt we all wanted to see. In this article we go a little deeper into this concept.

The design we all expect for the iMac

This concept that has been published on the Brasile Grand YouTube channel shows in just over 1 minute what the new iMac with M2 could look like. Above all, the groundbreaking design that has been proposed by eliminating the pronounced bezels that the equipment has now stands out and that without a doubt gives a very old aesthetic to the range. Coinciding with all the rumors on the table, a design is proposed that resembles the Pro Display XDR that was presented jointly with the Mac Pro in 2019. In this way the work would be much more comfortable when taking advantage of the full size of the team.

At the rear we are used to a curved design right now that could end up changing as shown in this concept. It would go to something totally straight giving a much more sober touch to the architecture of the team. But above all I would highlight from this front is the camera that would not be limited only to recording our face while we are in a conference. The ideas that are raised is the implementation of Face ID technology with the aim of unlocking the equipment in a much more comfortable way when you get in front of it. This would make the iMac finally have a biometric recognition system like MacBooks with Touch ID have right now.

The specifications with which it would arrive

Throughout the concept, beyond just focusing on design, it also provides some interesting data on technical specifications. Many of these coincide with the different published reports that refer to this new team. It starts with the M2 chip that would give it much more power than it has right now in Macs with M1. To this is added a 1440p camera, up to 32 GB of DDR4X RAM , storage that could reach up to 4TB in SSD and even a screen with a variable size: 21, 24 or 27 inches with 5K resolution. Regarding the connections, you could bet on an Ethernet of up to 10 GB to guarantee a solid data transfer as well as four professional microphones and different USB-C ports, 2 USB-A ports, Thunderbolt 3. And for professionals there the Micro-SD Port connections would be abandoned and obviously it would come with the possibility of configuring it with a dedicated graphic.

The latter is quite interesting since according to this concept Apple could be able to make different GPUs available to users. One that is already more than known as the Radean Pro Vega 64X. But there would also be the possibility of integrating an Nvdia RTX 3070Ti that this year we have seen that they have stood out for their power. In the end, this renovation is expected not to be limited to a simple processor change but to go a little further with updates to the rest of the hardware and also in its design. However, this video is still that, a concept based on rumors and that unfortunately is still far from confirmed. Will the new Apple iMac end up looking like this type of video?
