Apple’s awesome new M1 iMac finally received its obligatory teardown by the fine folks over at iFixit. You may not be surprised to learn there’s very little packed into the computer’s slender aluminum shell.
That doesn’t mean it’s not exciting. The M1 iMac is, as we’ve come to expect from Apple, an engineering marvel. It’s rather astonishing that the brilliant minds in Cupertino can squeeze so much power out of so little.
Like other M1 machines, the new iMac is one of Apple’s fastest computers to date. Its custom silicon promises up to 85% faster processing and two times faster graphics over the 21.5-inch iMac.
And yet, the new iMac measures just 11.5mm thick. It’s thinner than two 11-inch iPad Pro units stacked on top of each other. It’s also an absolute stunner — and that beauty isn’t just skin-deep.
