The price of Apple’s 2023 iMac powered by M3 chips has dropped to its lowest price yet.

Amazon $1,149

A word of warning: While this is a good deal on paper, we do feel that the 2023 iMac’s base specs aren’t quite up to par. In this day and age, with applications becoming more and more demanding, it’s hard to seriously recommend a computer with just 8GB of RAM. That’s why the iMac doesn’t score higher than 86.

On the plus side, the M3 chipset is very fast, and the iMac’s display is still great. Although this is a desktop system, it’s light, so moving it from room to room or propping it up on something isn’t too difficult – the inability to adjust the screen vertically is a bit disappointing.

There are some things to keep in mind here, but if you’re looking for a nice, nice new computer to perform relatively basic tasks (you won’t be doing much gaming or video editing on a system with these specs) and don’t worry if you If you don’t mind spending a little money, then this iMac might suit your needs.
