@ThomasVanhelden Месяц назад

Putting the charging port on the side of the mouse would ruin the design aesthetic Apple is looking for. It would also be uncomfortable to the touch when using the mouse. Putting the port on the front or back would also ruin the design. Considering that you only need to charge the mouse a few times a year, I understand Apple's decision. They're offering a beautifully designed mouse, which is unique in the market at the moment. It doesn't make sense to provide something that already exists and is produced by so many manufacturers. Apple created this mouse for people who care about the look of the mouse and like Apple's unique aesthetic. I'm not saying it's a good mouse, but I do understand the business decision behind it. As a software engineer, I rarely use a mouse, and when I do, it's the Magic Trackpad.

I bought an iMac M3 24gb 1tb ssd. It’s a terrific machine, which saves a lot of space in my small workspace. If I went with a Mac mini pro with studio display, I’d be spending ~$1,000 more. If a pro chip was an option for the iMac, people would complain how expensive it is, and push people to the larger setup. But, if I was working on my computer 8-10 hrs a day, and needed more screen space or performance, then I’d opt for a more expensive setup than what’s available for the iMac. As a casual everyday computer for photo editing and some light video editing, the iMac is really nice to have.

@alexblankenship7385 Месяц назад

That's the configuration I would go with. It's expensive but worth it, it's as close as your gonna get to a Pro All-in-one. I like that they offer the 24gb RAM, honestly it's a powerful enough computer to do Pro workflows, I've ran Unreal engine 5 with no hiccups so far.

Really found this video useful and I am ready to get my 4th iMac over 25 years of being an Apple fan and I totally agree with your points on the mean amount of RAM on the entry models coupled with small storage, no Ethernet connection, and only two points at the rear. Coupled together with the price of upgrading the negative points is stalling me ordering one straight away. Great review. Thanks, Maurice from Malvern UK.

@ByteReview 4 месяца назад

yeah I 100% get this! Battery is amazing so you should never need to charge and use it at the same time, however when that does happen (however slim the chance) then there's nothing you can do!

@freddiefox. 4 месяца назад

@@ByteReview You can charge the mouse for about ten minutes (while you go to get a coffee) and it will give you three hours or so use, until you can give it a full charge later. I do think the rechargeable accessories are so much better than having to insert batteries, like we used to, which cost a lot more money. A full mouse charge lasts about a month. I also keep a wired mouse handy anyway, which is useful if you ever need to troubleshoot Bluetooth connection issues, so sometimes I use that, if I need to charge the magic mouse.

@Manuel-rl6um 4 месяца назад

I understand all your negative points too, I'm very peaky with noise as well. The only two computers I had that were quieter than this iMac were the MBA15 M2 I bought later, or a custom PC I built with an i7 8700 with a good config of case, fans and power draw which resulted in a dead silent PC even when running Cinebench, loved that thing.

@ed61730 4 месяца назад

I missed the old iMacs so much, the all in one is great for my desk... I actually loved the speakers on the iMac Pro too... maybe they are having thermal issues? I guess we'll see if they ever launch one. There is still rumours of a new 32inch mac display... maybe they aAs someone who used to have an iMac pro and mostly used iMac for like 5 years before that.. I got over the idea of the iMac now that the macbooks are so much more powerful. Studio display plus a mac studio is so much better plus it means you do not need to keep upgrading the screen just the main box.

@erestube 4 месяца назад

If you look at the Apple website and their different product pages, you can see pictures of the products with lots of app icons floating around . The iMac has general productivity apps and "general family use" apps but no heavy duty creative apps. Those are on the mac mini and studio pages. This is probably a big clue as to the direction Apple is going and how we should be shopping.

Thank you, for this excellent review and "heart-break" about Apple's new colorful 24-inch iMac desktop computer. A few years ago, I was in this same position when it came to the M-1 "mac mini" because, we all waited and waited for Apple, Inc. to give it the M-1 Pro processor chip. After waiting several years Apple, finally added the Pro processor chip with the M-2 "mac mini" models. But now, I am not planning on buying a new computer until the Spring of 2025 ... so, too bad for Apple, Inc. (smile...smile).

@jimtipton8888 4 месяца назад

I find it odd that the only Mac without a Pro chip is the iMac. I think if they built it, people would buy it like crazy. Lacking a Pro iMac makes the Studio line much more appealing as a desk top solution. Personally I prefer the versatility of the MBP's.

@jack_2612 4 месяца назад

I think a MacBook Pro is far more convenient as of today, even compared to a Mac Studio (unless you need the IO and are positive you are gonna use it in a desktop setup period). The MBP can really do it all and unless you were already set with a laptop, it's the better choice. You can even get 120hz or 240hz (if I'm not mistaken) displays with it and the same goes with the Mac lineup. The iMac is just what you get and not being able to upgrade neither the display nor the chipset is kind of a no-go for most. I actually think a MB Air combined with a 4k monitor is a better buy than an iMac, because you can build a clean setup anyways without clutter. This is really a product for companies, you buy a batch of iMacs and you get keyboards and mice/trackpads already included, plus you don't have the clutter of regular tower+monitor+wired keyboards setups you tend to see in offices. For the regular consumer, this is not good value at all in a world where the Mac Mini exists

I agree, I really want to love the iMac but when I spec it up to something that I think will last me 5-7 years it comes out to around £2,300-2,400. For that price, I can get an M2 Pro Mac mini and a great 4K monitor, etc and still have money left over. So, it’s a No from me.

@ByteReview 4 месяца назад

I think there's a lot of people in a similar boat!

@iTalktech1985 4 месяца назад

If you spec it out right for around 1800 it would last for sure 5-7 years. The 4k monitor you would be getting with a Mac mini would be missing what makes the iMac and studio display the main feature. I tried to go the route you are talking even with a 4k LG Ultrafine and M2 Mac mini and was not the same at all.

@jimjamarch 2 месяца назад

Strange review - it seems the biggest negative points are the fact that you have to upgrade on certain features that’s just what it is. You already have the highest spec machine that you’re testing so why are you not happy with them? Is the speed really a big deal or is it just a hunger for more gear?

I do like it and Im new to Macs maybe I should have gotten a dell with the faster Intel 9 processor with 36 gig of ram and lots more ports so Im stuck with the M3 which is not bad Ill just have to get used to that color wheel poping up at least it hasn't frozen yet.

I won't buy one based on the soldered-in components. That benefits only the manufacturer.

I’m pretty surprised that you done “hate” the Magic Keyboard, most of the mechanical keyboard fans usually don’t like this keyboard

Magic keyboard is really nice, I type loads on a MacBook / iPad and it feels very similar so I don't mind it at all

The 256 Gb flash is a much bigger problem on an M3 iMac than it would have been on a 256 Gb M1 iMac. The reason is that the 256 Gb M1 iMac has two 128 Gb flash modules which is faster than the single 256 Gb flash module in a 256 Gb M3 iMac. The reason for this is that simultaneous I/O to two flash modules is faster than I/O to a single flash module. Apple should not rely in end users having a deep technical knowledge to know that a 512 GB flash module and 16 Gb of RAM is essential for all serious tasks. I presume that you had more than 256 Gb of flash and that was not the cause of most of your problems?

Yeah this is the 512GB version. No issues with flash speed here.

I don’t think the home computer is dead. We have kids and they just have iPads for primary school and personal use. Inset up my old iMac for the family but no one used it

Standard Apple passive upselling. Release a product with inferior specs to force you to upgrade. You then see that the price with upgrades bumps you up toward Pro or Max territory, so.......

@gr-os4gd 4 месяца назад

Or maybe making sure there's a product config for a wider range of price points. 🤔

@TheDanEdwards 4 месяца назад

You do know that Lenovo, Microsoft, Dell etc. all have plenty of products that start at 8GB RAM, don't you? "Inferior specs" is just relative.

@David_10157 4 месяца назад

I “really really” disagree with you. There are plenty of top level creators with massive channels making great content using the iMac.

@ByteReview 4 месяца назад

And fair play to them, it's great for that but a MBP / Mac studio is better suited for sure

@@dchartest9661 Sueddu. Look up her channel. Nearly a million subscribers, puts out lifestyle content weekly, uses an M1 iMac. Conversely this creator only does reviews which is the least artistic expression of the medium. I wouldn’t even consider it artistic. It’s product placement.

Apple cares so much more about aesthetics than functionality. This extends from the appearance and features of their products to their softwares and apps to their uniform. The missing SD card slot is a good example. Another is, I have always preferred Keynote over PowerPoint but honestly, PP is built for function. What takes me one click on PP takes me 4 clicks and an annoying hovering window that blocks my field of view on Keynote. It just doesn't make sense. Their uniforms, also, are designed in a way without a name embossed because "it doesn't look nice next to the apple logo". Instead they have their employees wear lanyards because it "looks more professional". So they would rather have people do more for more just because of *aesthetics*. I hate this about Apple.
