Apple's 24-inch iMac is an ultra-thin all-in-one desktop computer that was refreshed with a new design, M1 chips, and new color options in April 2021. Apple's larger 27-inch iMac hasn't been updated since August 2020, and there are rumors of a similar redesign for that model with an even larger display, perhaps as soon as late 2021. Apple also sells a barebones 21.5-inch model that's primarily aimed at the education market and hasn't been updated since 2017.

I was also looking for a 27" to replace my older IMac too. I'm holding out for a new version.

Maybe another third-party chip or rare earth mineral or something else.

Excellent thought.
