I need to replace my desktop, which is a Dell that runs Windows. I was looking at the iMAC Pro, but the MACbook Pro may be more interesting. Can I plug a large monitor into a MACbook Pro, and get the same performance I could get with a desktop?
@@DeborahCarlston Yes, that's exactly what my setup is. I am using my M3 Pro MacBook Pro 14 as a desktop with a 28" 4K monitor, keyboard and mouse, and printer, hooked up to it.
I'm a big fan of 27" iMacs and I'm still on one now. As soon as Apple announced Apple silicon I bought the best iMac I could a i9 ten core 27" iMac and that ten core i9 still performs great next to M1 and M2 Macs. So if Apple was to come out with a 32" iMac as long as it not crazy overpriced I'll order one day one. In mean time I'm still considering a Mac Studio with Max chip.
Supporting multiple platforms is really expensive the development and especially QA costs are way high. Apple loves their big profit margins to much to do that.
I still have my late model 2015 27" iMac. Loaded it with 32gigs of Ram and mostly use Photoshop and RUclips. Still really great performer but I am worried about the newer OS systems not able to run on this machine. And what that means for future versions of Photoshop.
Wow, love to hear they're thinking about larger iMac, i thought they'd abandoned those, i got mines back in 2015 and its' been the core of everything i do, its getting a bit slow now though but I just couldn't step from a 27" to a 24", i'd miss the space too much.. Loving the idea though of the Mac Studio too as its so portable you could literally stick it in a case and take it anywhere really, its a powerhouse! :)
This imac 32inch sounds too good to be true. It could be true quite easily. But the price of this thing isn’t going to be comparable to the studio display + mac mini system or your macbook pro. A 32inch display with mini led is going to be very expensive specially at the 6k resolution they will have to release it at. If they release it at any other resolution, mac OS will struggle with the scaling and/or it won’t be retina. The xdr display for example is £4500 just as an example. So if this display is 6k, mini led, 32 inch and with pro motion, it’s better than the xdr display. That plus the pro m4 chip, camera, keyboard, mouse, webcam, microphone array, speaker system, wireless chip, ports…this thing is going to be around £7000+. 3200 usd wont even get you the display alone. So no chance.
I'm at a stand still right now in my Home Studio. I was waiting for M3 "STUDIO" ...not now, so I need to wait longer for either New iMAC w/ M4 or "STUDIO" M4. ( plus need to buy Monitor ) ...Hmm?
@@sismachine are YOU POSITIVE that I can use my 2017 27" 5K iMAC asa Monitor when I buy the new M4 STUDIO ( or any other current Mac) ? Please don't get me TOO excited :) Thank you for responding, George
@@GeorgeAmodei21 there’s an adapter called Luna Display that apparently does it. I want to try it, but my current MBP is not USBC, so I’m not sure if it will work.
Matt, I'm a long time user of the Iphone and watches. My daughter has been trying to convince me to get a mac for years. Your videos are providing the education I need to be more comfortable taking the next step.
Thanks for the info! I sure hope this is true, I have been holding out for a couple years now. I just hope it is not insanely expensive. I love my 27" iMac, while 30 or 32" would be nice, I would rather not spend more than $3k for a new computer.
I’m planning on getting the M4 13-inch IPad Pro as I’m in the market for an iPad since my original 1st gen IPad Mini. Especially because Zbrush is available on the new iPad, I hope Blender comes to in some capacity.
I just recently in the last few months picked up a 5k 27in 2019 imac 8 core i9 with 1T fusion drive and 64 gigs already in it for $600 mint condition. I'm looking to upgrade the SSD myself....Any ideads? I want to use for music mainly. I'm not sure how its gonna keep up yet. Of course, I would love a new 32" M4 Pro imac. But, for what I paid for mine and its still supported, I gotta ride this out a bit.🤷♂
Do we really need an imac pro anymore though? It's not like you can upgrade the ram yourself and the mac studio just seems like a such better buy as you can invest in any minot you want. I get this imac pro to be less than a mac studio plus an xdr.. then maybe but at what costs? How much would the imac pro m4 mac top line cost?
I had an imac from 2008-2017, was one of the best computers I've ever owned. The screen did however start to have issues (to be expected for such an old computer), this is why I would hesitate to buy another one but at the same time that issue could happen with an apple laptop as well. An M4 max Mac studio would probably be the best option for my workflow and could change out the monitors when they inevitably give out.
I am looking to get this new iMac you are predicting, sure hope it comes out soon. In the meantime, sure would love a new MacBook Pro. Love your channel and info!
I'd love to replace my ageing Intel Imac from 2020 with a new Macbook pro M3 and going to get the iPhone 15 pro at some point! Great Video dude, Will me taking a closer look at this new Imac when it comes out as well.
I will definitely will get and ipad M4 but my doubt is which size i would get, or the mac book air - i need new hardware for this 2024 my current mac is too old😅 but still running 🎉
Thanks for this video update on the progress of the iMac Pro. I have been holding out for purchasing a new Mac for years waiting on this release so hopefully I’ll be able to make the plunge this year or next. I have a 2015 27” Intel iMac and I’m booting off an external SSD drive which put some life into this computer, but it’s still a little sluggish and I can’t update to the current OS or apps. I would love a laptop as well so hopefully I’ll be the lucky winner, especially since my birthday is in late June. Keep on creating that great content!
Hey man I liked your video and I have never had an Apple computer until now and I really want this because I want to do good work. I wish you continued success, I liked your RUclips channel.
This is the option I wanted but because of the shaky rumors I caved and got a specd out m3 iMac. Thinking if I really needed to I could add a studio Display as a second monitor down the line while also getting setup to transition to a Mac mini/studio after that. For the power I need it was difficult to justify the added cost to get a comparable m2 Mac mini + studio display for just 3 more inches. If the studio display was 30” or more I maybe would’ve justified it. This 24” display has been surprisingly comfortable, and the m3 chip is great. If I do decide to upgrade it’ll be nice to have a larger iMac option as well.
An iMac 32 inch will definitely be on my shortlist the instant it is offered Matt !! Can’t wait ; My trusty old 27 inch served me well for 10 years and so looking forward to the 32 inch for sure!! 😮
I would love a 32" iMac Pro with M4 Max or so - and I don't mind if it a little bit thiccer so it doesn't overheat or throttle or so. So all this sounds amazing!
My wife and I are planning to get a m2 macbook air for digitizing embroidery. ❤ i hope it will support software for our new hobby . More power to your channel!
i just now stepped up to intel macs, having only had an mac mini 2014 that bridged my PowerPC G5 imac into the future as i used it and the mac mini for years. i have a macbook air 2015 and imac 2017 now with apple watch ipod touch and ipad. also apple tv and homepods.
Still using a 2011 27inch iMac, still stuck on High Sierra, still using Logic Pro 10.4.8. Despite being the centrepiece of my studio for 13(!) years and making music professionally for the entire period….it’s time for an upgrade! Very close to pulling the trigger on an M2 Mini, but if there’s a new 32 inch M4 iMac on the horizon then take my money! (Although I bet here in Australia we’ll be looking at $4.5AU to $5kAU entry level 😢)
it will be nice to see the iMac make a solid comeback! about time!! Im looking to upgrade my 2019 MacBook Pro with a new M series MacBook Pro but I don't know which to get, I like the 14" but am so used to my 16".
Have 2017 27” iMac, still good, would definitely get a larger one, but I doubt if you would be able to upgrade the ram as you currently can (came with 8 gig, I upgraded it to 32 fairly easy and much cheaper than apple ram) .
Will you be waiting for the NEW M4 Pro or M4 Max iMac Pro?
M4 Max iMac Pro 🙌
I need to replace my desktop, which is a Dell that runs Windows. I was looking at the iMAC Pro, but the MACbook Pro may be more interesting. Can I plug a large monitor into a MACbook Pro, and get the same performance I could get with a desktop?
Price matters
Yes
@@DeborahCarlston Yes, that's exactly what my setup is. I am using my M3 Pro MacBook Pro 14 as a desktop with a 28" 4K monitor, keyboard and mouse, and printer, hooked up to it.
Definitely curious about what kind of power is in the M4 series chips. I’m still trying to find good deals on the M1 MacBook Pro
I am super intrested too
M1 iPad and MacBook still killing it
I'm a big fan of 27" iMacs and I'm still on one now. As soon as Apple announced Apple silicon I bought the best iMac I could a i9 ten core 27" iMac and that ten core i9 still performs great next to M1 and M2 Macs.

I have my 27 i9 3.6ghz 128gb ram and I'm still happy 😂
No reason Apple can't still support older Intel iMacs.
Supporting multiple platforms is really expensive the development and especially QA costs are way high. Apple loves their big profit margins to much to do that.
We still have 2 iMacs 27” Intel and love them. I won’t buy the 24” but would buy the 32” in a heartbeat.
Not crazy overpriced? I don’t think you know what the word ”Apple" means.
I plan to get myself an old refurbished 27" intel imac because of its 5k display.
I have a loaded 27” iMac paid $ 1,500 for it and it has a add on magnetic bezel that makes it a touch screen.
My thoughts exactly .
Great idea!
Sorry to break it for but the 27” intel iMac is AMAZING!!!
My 27 is still flying and I'm happy with 128gb ram is on fire
Do m4 chip iMac can run wineskin so I can use windows software without restarting? This bezel is cool of this 2024 imac. Thank you
That is a pass for now... we don't know really know that until release of the chip and software is updated to work with it full

Looking forward to getting the new iMac for running Logic and Final Cut

def wanting to get the MacPro for editing. Sounds incredible
What range of pricing on these iMacs ?
I was completely underwhelmed by the 24 in iMac. Smaller display, hardly any ports, no SD card..... courage. My 2017 i7 with 1TB SSD is going strong.
Matt, I'm a long time user of the Iphone and watches. My daughter has been trying to convince me to get a mac for years. Your videos are providing the education I need to be more comfortable taking the next step.
Would definitely buy this!! My 27” iMacs best years are over now. It’s already 10 years old, but I don’t want to buy a small 24” one…
Me either
I plan on getting the Imac 32 inch pro when it comes out.
Planning to get M2 Max Mac Studio this year
Thanks for the info! I sure hope this is true, I have been holding out for a couple years now. I just hope it is not insanely expensive. I love my 27" iMac, while 30 or 32" would be nice, I would rather not spend more than $3k for a new computer.
picking up my ipad pro this week
For Photoshop and Lighroom, only photography, not video editing, will be better this upcoming one or the Stupio M2?
Does it come with target display mode?
Plan on the IMAC M3 soon....
Considering buying a Mac Studio this year
I’m planning on getting an M4 iMac if it launches this year.
I'm currently on an M1 iMac and would love to upgrade to an iMac Pro when and if it comes out.
definitely going to get the brand new imac if it comes out, but i am just going to stick with the imac 24" for now
I'm planning on getting the 27" imac as soon as i can i only have the late 2015 Macbook pro at the moment and need an upgrade
I’m planning on getting the M4 13-inch IPad Pro as I’m in the market for an iPad since my original 1st gen IPad Mini. Especially because Zbrush is available on the new iPad, I hope Blender comes to in some capacity.

If there is a chance for an iMac 32, I guess that means I'll put a hold on the Mac Studio and wait this out. 🤠
I hope to get a Mac Studio M4 for my music studio recording setup.
General question if someone on here could help out. Would an Imac be a good purchase for a general computer user?
Il get one for sure 👍
I will definitely will get and ipad M4 but my doubt is which size i would get, or the mac book air - i need new hardware for this 2024 my current mac is too old😅 but still running 🎉

Hi Matt, do you have any hints that the M4 would have Thunderbolt 5 support?
Hopefully a new updated Studio or new 32 imac
Was planning on max studio but will hold and see if Mac Pro coming out… then defo a max pro

I plan on getting a m2 pro Mac mini!
I'm hoping they do it like your renders, with the black bezel. I hate the white bezel on the current models.
Definately getting a 2024 IPad Pro 13 with the new Oled screen with M4 chip! 😎👍🏼 Love your channel! Keep up the great work!
Planning on buying either an iMax M3 or Studio Max M2 (waiting to see if a newer one is coming in June).
