Apple Launches 24-Inch iMac Featuring M3 Chip and Up to 10-Core GPU in India: Price and Specifications Revealed

Apple has pulled another rabbit out of its hat, introducing the revamped 24-inch iMac with the brand-spankin' new M3 chip, following the M1-powered iMac's grand entrance in 2021. This exciting development was unveiled at Apple's Scary Fast event, where they decided to keep the same sleek design as the 2021 iMac model, powered by the M1 chip that made waves three years ago. But don't be fooled by the familiar exterior; under the hood, it's a whole new beast.

The star of the show, the 24-inch iMac with the M3 chip, struts its stuff with an 8-core CPU and up to a 10-core GPU. Apple claims it'll blow the M1-based iMac out of the water, delivering up to two times better performance while also being more energy-efficient. Talk about a turbo boost!

Now, let's talk turkey. In India, the 24-inch iMac with the M3 chip kicks off at a starting price of Rs. 1,34,900. This beauty comes equipped with an 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU, 8GB of memory, a zippy 256GB SSD storage, and two Thunderbolt ports. As a cherry on top, Apple throws in the Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse, and you've got your choice of colors – green, pink, blue, or silver.

But hold on to your seats because there's more. If you're craving the 10-core GPU version, it's yours for Rs. 1,54,900, or a sweet deal at Rs. 1,44,900 for education. This one's a mirror image of the previous configuration with an 8-core CPU, 8GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD, two Thunderbolt ports, Gigabit Ethernet, and two USB 3 ports.

It's like a technicolor dream!

But it's not just about the muscle; this 24-inch iMac with M3 is also a feast for the eyes. It boasts a 24-inch Retina Display with a dazzling 4.5K resolution and a peak brightness of 500 nits. The connectivity is nothing to sneeze at, with Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, up to four USB Type-C ports, two Thunderbolt ports, and Gigabit Ethernet support. For those all-important video calls, there's a crisp 1080p FaceTime camera, and you can crank up the volume with the six-speaker setup that supports Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos. Oh, and did we mention it comes with the snazzy new macOS Sonoma straight out of the box? It's the whole shebang!
