Apple iMac 27-inch

Award: Editor's Choice!

Largest display among all-in-ones; fast dual-core CPU makes up for lack of quad-core (mostly); finally has an SD Card slot; wireless mouse and keyboard; Mini DisplayPort input ripe with possibility

Most Windows all-in-ones in the price range have Blu-ray; touch-sensitive mouse gestures not as responsive as we'd like; increase in AppleCare cost makes Apple's nickel-and-dime customer service policy even worse

Apple's new 27-inch iMac will charm plenty of you with its screen size alone. Fortunately, that won't lead you astray. Behind its expansive display, Apple has packed one of the fastest all-in-ones available, and added a few useful extras to sweeten ...

Apple iMac 27-inch (Core 2 Duo)

By Joel Santo Domingo

When it comes to the all-in-one desktop market, the Apple iMac is the standard bearer. And, like any other industry-leading product, this makes it a target for all of Apple's competitors. The unveiling of the new configuration is an annual event for ...

Continues design dominance. Wireless keyboard. Wireless Magic Mouse. Mini DisplayPort input. Better screen resolution than a 1080p HDTV. EPEAT Gold and Energy Star 5.0

Card reader is SD-only. No eSATA. Requires third-party adapter for HDMI or DVI input. No Blu-ray option

The Apple iMac 27-inch (Core 2 Duo) promises to be bigger and better, with more screen real estate, a higher resolution, and power savings to boot.

The Apple iMac 27-inch (Core 2 Duo) is certainly a class-defining product. As an added bonus, the exterior of the iMac 27-inch (Core 2 Duo) ($1,699 list) has been updated along with the interior. This will no doubt make it prettier on TV shows and...

Apple iMac (27-inch, unibody, 2009)

By Julian Prokaza

With a 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, the 27-inch iMac that we reviewed doesn't offer a huge improvement in performance compared to previous models. But it's still a worthwhile upgrade, offering improved specs and features, including an LED-backlit ...

Better specs at a similar price point to its predecessor ; big, beautiful, bright display ; all-aluminium case

Included Magic Mouse is an acquired taste ; with a widescreen, high-definition display, the iMac would benefit from a Blu-ray drive

With a 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, the 27-inch Apple iMac that we reviewed doesn't offer a dramatic increase in speed compared to previous models, but the LED-backlit display and specification tweaks are still very welcome. Unless your current iMac ...

It's said that a thing of beauty is a joy forever, but current Apple iMac owners have only had a couple of years to enjoy their desktop PC before being presented with a new object of desire. The latest iMacs are more evolutionary than revolutionary,...

Apple iMac 27-inch unboxing

By Craig Simms

Apple's new giant iMac is in the house, and we've unpacked it and poked around a little.

Apple's iMac has given birth to a new brother, at a giant 27-inches, 328 ounces. Other options include a 2TB hard drive (for the usual Apple overpriced AU$350 extra), up to 16GB RAM (for the usual Apple over-priced $1960 extra), and ATI's Radeon...

Apple iMac review (21.5-inch, 27-inch)

By Roman Loyola,

The new Apple iMac design lends itself more towards use as central part of a home entertainment centre, as well as boasting top-end performance.

The new iMacs introduce the most drastic changes to Apple's all-in-one aluminum design since the metal iMac was introduced a little over two years ago. The new design lends itself more towards use as central part of a home entertainment centre.
