Apple announced a new 24-inch iMac powered by its M6 chip on Tuesday, the second Mac to get the company's latest silicon this week. The all-in-one starts at $1,499 (roughly 4,350 TND) and lands on November 6, a day after Apple's "Pro and Tell" event.
The launch was revealed in a press release rather than on stage, and it follows Monday's iPad mini refresh. For buyers in the market for a desktop Mac, the headline is simple: the iMac now carries the same 2nm generation of Apple silicon that arrived in August with the Mac mini.
iMac M6 specs and what changed
The M6 packs a 12-core CPU and a 12-core GPU, with a Neural Accelerator built into every GPU core. Apple pairs it with a dual 16-core Neural Engine, the part it credits for heavy on-device AI work.
According to Apple, the new iMac delivers up to five times faster on-device AI performance than the M4 model, and it says the chip handles multitasking, photo editing and video production comfortably. The M6 is Apple's first 2nm processor, and on the MacBook Pro side the company claims up to 30% faster graphics and up to 25% faster AI workloads than the M5.
