For my use this computer works very well. I am now 66y old. I was a big time gamer since the mid 1980's. ( from 2000 to 2018 mostly online games like the Everquests. Wow etc ) Now i just do surfing / videos and the odd game on Apple Arcade. I also pretty much replaced gaming with language learning. I recently upgraded everything. 24" iMac 16g. iPad Pro(m2). Macbook Air (m2). Apple Watch Ultra2. Airpods pro gen 2. The only thing i wish is that the iMac was available in 27". I did consider the Mac mini or studio, but for my use i figured those would be over kill.
Thanks for the comment. It is all about what we want to do with the computer. When it meets all our needs, it is the best tool. Enjoy it. Happy Mac computing . (Haven't you considered MacBook Air with 27"monitor, for its portability convenience?)
As a Mac user since 2009 (27” iMac and another in late 2014, both of which I SO LOVED, I have to say that you are RIGHT ON about the MANY shortcomings of the new, highly vaunted and extremely limited new iMac 24” system which Apple is currently soaking people for. I was gifted one at Christmas and would never have accepted it had I known the frustration I was letting myself in for. I am a power user and always spec up any system which I purchase but this was a surprise FOR SURE.! And I had no input. To say I hate the system would be the kindest thing I could say as in truth, I really want to throw it VERY, VERY FAR AWAY. And now, in order to have a system which will do what I need, I have to go get a MAC STUDIO AND STUDIO DISPLAY. But this time, I will use my own money and spec it up as I need. Of course, my house payments might suffer……..please do not also become just another$$$$ for Apple! ARGH.
What specs is your iMac? My 2019 iMac bit the dust and I know I need Mac Studio, but it’s expensive. Thought about getting an iMac to hold me until the next generation of Mac Studio comes out and I’ve saved up enough money.
For what I do, Mac nini does wonders. In my opinion, Mac Studio is for pros who depend on it to make money. If you do and can claim in taxes, that's the way to go. Otherwise Mini can manage. I made a similar video on Studio too. Thanks for both for the comments. Happy Mac computing.
Thank you, for providing an excellent summary of the pros and cons of Apple's colorful 24-inch iMac desktop computers. During my first two decades (during the 1990's and 2000's) as an Apple home computer user, I only picked-up All-in-One desktops a 15-inch 5400, white 20-inch G4 iMac, glossy white 20-inch G5 iMac, and glossy white 24-inch Intel iMac. However, starting in 2010, I now only buy "mac mini" models and pair them with an Apple monitor (smile...smile).
@@letgeorgedoit Thank you, for replying to my post. With all the M-1, M-2, M-3, and now M-4, changes Apple, Inc. is doing, I decided three years ago to, just wait until the Spring of 2025, before buying a new Apple desktop system. However, if buying today, I would pick-up a M-2 "mac mini" pro model and pair it with an Apple 32-inch XDR 6K monitor. But, since Apple is a bit tricky over the next 9-months who knows, they may come out with both a better "mac mini" model along with a new display (smile...smile).

Glad it was useful. My favorite is Mac Mini too. Has more than enough power to do what I need. Thanks for the comment.

Nobody ever wonders why no Face ID?
Regular mac users might know. But anyone got to macs after getting iPhone might wonder.
Indian?
