Apple’s 24-inch M1 iMac has never sold for less at $800 (Save $499), more

Apple’s 24-inch M1 iMac has dropped another $50. Best Buy now has it down to $799.99 shipped after we saw it drop from $1,299 down to $850 earlier in the month. Now, you can score a new all-time low at $499 off. This discounts the 256GB model with 8GB of memory and 7-core CPU lower than ever before. It comes joined by a price cut over at B&H that has the 8-core GPU model with 512GB of storage down at $1,499 from its usual $1,899 price tag. This is $400 off and a new all-time low on this elevated configuration. It’s rare to find a model on sale with more than 8GB of memory, and now today’s sale means you can also lock-in the best-ever discount. It features extra memory for multitasking, improved graphics, and Gigabit Ethernet, which is built into the power brick.

This might not be the latest version, but that just means Apple’s 24-inch iMac is an even better value. It packs an integrated M1 processor with its sleek design including a 4.5K Retina display with True Tone, as well as a 1080p FaceTime camera. Other notable features include 256GB or more of onboard storage, at least 8GB of RAM, and six speakers capable of supporting Spatial Audio. Get a closer look in our launch coverage.

By comparison, the new M3 iMac sports much of the same design as the older version. It has the same 24-inch 4.5K Retina display packed into the same compact and all-in-one form-factor. The only real difference is the improved performance of the M3 chip. But if you’re just looking for an affordable entry point into macOS and don’t need the absolute latest that Apple has to offer, the $850 starting prices above are going to be a whole lot better than the $1,149 sale prices of its 3mn processor machines.
