Apple's M6 iMac Is Here, but the M4 Still Has a Strong Case - TechRepublic
Apple’s new M6 iMac is faster than the M4, but getting the most useful upgrades means spending beyond the entry price.
Released November 6, the new all-in-one desktop starts at $1,499, bringing faster processing, graphics, storage, and connectivity. However, buyers seeking four Thunderbolt ports must step up to the $1,699 configuration.
The improvements are more compelling for demanding workloads than everyday tasks. Existing M4 owners have little reason to replace a capable machine, while new buyers must decide whether the higher-tier M6 justifies its $200 premium.
