The fanless MacBook Air can't run as hard as the MacBook Pro, which has internal fans for cooling. The other factor that can affect performance is cooling. The green and purple versions of the new 24-inch iMac. If you're trying to figure out which one you have, the entry-level models generally have the seven core GPU version. Both have eight CPU cores, but one has eight GPU cores while the other has only seven GPU cores. The differences that could affect performance come in part from the two different M1 versions. They all use the new M1 processor, the same OS and have similar RAM and storage configurations.

In a lot of ways, the current MacBook Air, Mac Mini, 13-inch MacBook Pro and 24-inch iMac are all the same computer.
Every time there's a new Mac, some people say, "It would be great if this had a touchscreen," and in this case, it's true. Something similar with a touchscreen makes a better case, as the keyboard and touchpad are not especially conducive to kitchen use.

But would I really do that enough to justify keeping an iMac in the kitchen full time? Probably not, but I'd be tempted to lug it in for an online cooking class. I could see the appeal, especially as an alternative to propping a laptop up to follow along with a recipe. For a short time I tried setting up a Microsoft Surface tablet as a kitchen countertop computer, but even that took up too much space. In my own modestly sized Brooklyn apartment kitchen, I doubt the iMac would have fit comfortably between the Balmuda toaster, Nespresso machine, Instant Pot and other gadgets fighting for limited counter space. The new iMac arrived just before a family trip, so it ended up in this open-air cabin kitchen for a little while. Unless you're very concerned about scratches, you likely can get any color of the iMac (2021) without having to worry too much.Meet the kitchen computer. You won't be carrying it around and taking it with you everywhere you go, so the chances of scratching it are way slimmer. Now, keep in mind, your iMac (2021) isn't a laptop. The silver aluminum that Apple uses in its Macs has always been better at hiding little nicks from the human eye than its darker colors, and I would imagine that the same would be true with the iMac (2021). My space gray MacBook Air definitely has a few small but noticeable scratches on the outside casing that I haven't noticed on sliver MacBooks.
With Apple products, I've always noticed that darker colors tend to show scratches, scuffs, and other little marks much more easily than lighter colors. I'm not confident that any iMac (2021) color will offer a better viewing experience over another color, so it's all about your preference. Unfortunately, the white bezel is on every model regardless of which color you get, so you can't really avoid it. Typically, I would suggest that if you really care about watch movies or media on your devices, you should go with the darkest color as it will be the least distracting when viewing content fullscreen.Īpple made the odd decision of making the iMac (2021) have white bezels around the screen, which will likely stick out like a sore thumb while watching content. If you want to see all the iMac (2021) colors, check out the Apple website so high-resolution photos of each color. The back, front, and stand are all uniform and should look the same. The only iMac (2021) model that's different is the silver version which is all one color. As you can see in the pictures up above, the back of the iMac is a darker and deeper color, while the metal stand and the chin on the front of the iMac are a lighter shade. The first thing you need to be aware of when getting the iMac (2021) is that all the bright and vibrant colored models are actually two-toned.
