Gurman wrote that he has not “ seen anything to indicate there will be a new iMac until the M3 check multiplication , ” which would mean the 24 - inch iMac skips the M2 generation all in all . The M3 micro chip will be manufactured using the 3 - nanometer operation , which could bring performance improvements that are right than the 20 percent we ’ve interpret between the M1 and M2 , both of which are 5 nm chips .
Gurman pronounce the M3 models “ wo n’t arrive until the arse close of this year at the former or next yr . ” Apple release the redesigned 24 - column inch iMac at an event in the spring of 2021 , so a 2024 release would be a full three years between models .
While Mac users have learned a great deal about the tech behind Apple ’s M - series chips and how they perform , there ’s still a lot to learn about Apple ’s release cadence with the chips . A 32- or 36 - month gap would be the farsighted time yet between updates . For case , the M1 MacBook Air stuck around for about 20 month before the M2 model arrive , but the M1 Mac mini had a near-26 - month ledge life . However , Apple and its yield partners are still feeling the effects of the supplying issues that occurred because of the pandemic , so it remains to be seen if the consumer - level chip release cadence modernise a more predictable pattern .
Gurman ’s story did not advert any change in the conception or other feature of the 24 - inch iMac . In past reports , Guman has mention Apple ’s programme for alarger iMac Proto complement the 24 - inch model , which could be released this class .
