The tension is rising, everyone wants to finally see the new iMac 2021, but Apple is still making a big secret out of it. The following draft arouses anticipation for Apple’s new all-in-one computer.
The iMac has offered few surprises in recent years. Apple updated the interior of the all-in-one computer, but the shape remained unchanged. On the one hand, this ensures value retention, on the other hand, sooner or later boredom arises. But that’s over this year, the experts have long agreed: The iMac 2021 will also get a new cover.
Nobody has seen it yet, but the reports from the informants are the same – elements of the iPad Pro (narrow display frame) therefore form a symbiosis with the structure of the acidic Pro Display XDR. The Italian design student Alberto Rapisardi will help those who still can’t imagine anything like this. His design aims to give us a possible idea of the new iMac 2021, which will also be the first iMac with Apple’s own chips. Apart from an ambitious handicraft project by a tinkerer that Apple already anticipated.
iMac 2021: Mac mini meets Pro Display XDR
At first glance, the concept is a bit clumsy – a shock. To put it bluntly, a Mac mini was married to a Pro Display XDR. But appearances are deceptive, the grace of the design is shown above all from other perspectives. Then the aha-effect sets in all of a sudden.
Adorably the view of the “rump” and on the side waist. The actual computer base then no longer looks so coarse, almost graceful.
If Rapisardi has its way, the customer can choose between a 24-inch and a 28-inch model. He is silent about the resolution, but 4K and 5K, as already now, are probably the minimum among the technical data.
The iMac inherits the simple base attachment from the Pro Display XDR. If you want, you can also use VESA adapters and hang the iMac on the wall or connect it to alternative swivel arms. Clever: The iMac can also be used as an external display, a feature that has been wanted for years.
The connections are in the computer base, i.e. in the foot, and should leave nothing to be desired. There was even room for older USB-A ports.
This iMac is almost 20 years old? Can not be, right:
The mouse needs it …
Even the keyboard and mouse have been redesigned. We just don’t really want to believe in the Touch Bar. Apple allegedly wants to eliminate this in future MacBooks. So why should they be reintroduced to the iMac first? A redesigned Magic Mouse, one that you no longer have to put on your back to charge, is more desirable. The design shown here finally removes this “eyesore”.
We’re still only seeing a draft here, but Apple’s new iMac will soon actually be admired. A performance at a possible Apple event in March is not entirely excluded, but we would rather expect a later release date in May or June.
