Apple is reportedly preparing an updated iMac powered by an M6 chip, with new or revised color options. The report, attributed to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, says the release is expected “before the end of the year,” following a pause in iMac updates for roughly two years.
The accounts agree that the change centers on moving the iMac to the M6 generation rather than delivering a major redesign. One outlet frames it as a product-refresh rather than a large overhaul, suggesting the iMac’s lifecycle may be relatively short as Apple transitions toward the next M7 generation. While details beyond timing and the chip upgrade are limited in the reports, both sources tie the expected launch window to Gurman’s reporting and Bloomberg’s newsletter update.
