We recommend Apple's new 27-inch iMac to digital media editors and others with serious performance needs on the strength of its impressive speed, its connected device potential, and its market-leading 27-inch display. ...
It's not only the size of the screen of the Apple iMAC 27” that is beautiful, it is also the clarity. The resolution is higher than on a standard Full HD screen, so you're looking at something that is pretty special. This means that whether you're watching a movie or editing a photo you've taken, you'll find the truest colour and tone possible, making the iMAC a pleasure to use. When it comes to
The Apple iMAC 27”comes with just 4GB of RAM and is powered by the older Intel Core i5 processor. What this means is that this isn't the desktop you want if labour intensive apps are the way you'll be using your desktop PC. When we put the Apple iMAC 27” through its paces we found that the Intel Core i5 couldn't really handle the same amount of multi-tasking as we've seen on faster Core i7 proces
The screen of the Apple iMAC 27” is amazing and more than lives up to expectations, but when it comes to performance this is much more a pedestrian affair than we were expecting. Apple iMAC 27” is tagged with Apple, iMAC 27”, full HD, all-in-one and de...
The iMac remains an incredible piece of technology, combining superb build quality with excellent performance – and of course that unrivalled Apple design aesthetic. Install Windows on it and you’ll get good gaming performance too. Not the choice if yo...

Wellcalibrated screen, Highend design and finish, Not many cables, Good general performances, Very quiet
Limited, inaccessible connectivity, No Bluray player, Terrible mouse, Adapter required to connect nonApple monitors
The iMac 27 inch has been built with high performance components (even more so than the 21.5 inch) and a very good quality screen, webcam, chassis and audio. Like the 21.5 inch however, it lacks a greater selection of everyday connections, Blu-ray compati...
Stunning design, Great performance, Big, beautiful display
Very expensive, No USB 3.0 port or Bluray player, Awkward port placement, Thunderbolt ports aren't useful yet
Apple's refreshed iMac isn't very ambitious, but it's still the most attractive, elegant and eminently usable all-in-one computer out there. It's extremely expensive compared to its Windows rivals, but the iMac is great fun to use....
Apple's newest iMac is an outstanding all-in-one, but its high price and limited performance improvement mean it's not worth upgrading from a recent model. ...
Abstract: We became quite fond of the 27in iMac and it's easy to see why, from its sleek design, quiet operation, and its huge, high quality, high resolution screen. Apart from the increased performance, the main difference between this model and its immediate p...
