Colourful Apple Silicon iMacs
Probability: Low.
A report from popular leaker Jon Prosser back in February suggested that Apple was planning a lineup of more colourful iMacs, although Prosser suggested that these were only in the prototype stage, and many details remained unknown.
Over the weekend, however, cryptic leaker @l0vetodream tweeted a set of images placing Apple’s “Spring Loaded” event logo beside the colourful 1990s era G3 iMacs, unveiling a new round of speculation that Apple could be planning to unveil these rumoured new iMacs at tomorrow’s event.
However, it also looks like @l0vetodream walked that back in a follow-up tweet. It’s hard to figure out what this leaker means at the best of times, but with Prosser’s earlier information we’re skeptical that these new iMacs are actually ready to go quite yet, although dwindling stocks of the 21.5-inch iMac do add some more fuel to the rumours and speculation.
What Might Be Coming: If Apple does release these colourful new iMacs, they’ll almost certainly feature Apple Silicon, but likely just the M1 or a minor variation of it. These would likely be entry-level consumer Macs, positioned at the same level as last fall’s M1 MacBook Air and baseline MacBook Pro.
