Best computer the money can buy!

This is my 5th generation IMac in the last 20 years. I have three of them at my office ranging from 2017 to this recent one and one at my house. They truly are a workhorse. Fast, Precise and very durable. It is also very light weight considering the whopping 27” monitor size. I would recommend this for sure!!

Love it!

I've a web developer and have been using MacBook Pros for some time now. First time using an iMac and I have to say it's bumped up my productivity 100%.

Apple of My Eye

Looooove my new Retina 5K. Fast, fast especially compared to my mid-2011 iMac. The display is really beautiful - a real bonus when working with Photoshop and Nik. Adding extra memory (I loaded another 16GB into back bay) was a snap as well. ADORAMA even overnighted it to me when adding VIP service to the order. Thx!!

Awesome machine

Chose this for my first Mac. It is so awesome. Went in for the base configuration and just upgraded the hard disk to 2TB. The 5K display is brilliant. It has a premium look. The supplied keyboard and the mouse suck though. They are not ergonomically at all. Luckily you can use your old windows input devices instead.

Just flat out amazing!!!

Great customer service. Fast shipping, super fast. I called and got a HUMAN BEING on the phone (such a rare and great experience). I asked about price matching another online company. They did, no questions asked. On top of that the, better than amazon prime shipping time, was free AND they didn’t collect sales tax when everyone else was.

iMac 27

Overall great computer as always. GPU is fantastic make rendering super fast. If possible increase the ram. The standard 8 gig is not enough for heavy design work.

Very happy with the computer & the service getting it shipped

The Apple Mac is the only computer I would buy, since my first Iic This does all I need to do what is needed with the speed I need. As far as Adorama, I ordered the Mac I the found out that it became temp. out of stock. The customer service deserves a big shout out for their friendly help getting the order changed to another Mac (that was in stock) and rushing it out as they promised. My new source foe Apple products. I am very pleased.

AMAZING

This is the fastest computer I have ever been able to work on! It took a little bit because it was drop shipped from Apple… but it was worth the wait. Only thing I would do is order with 8GB of RAM and then upgrade to 64 on my own, to save quite a bit of money.

Impressive iMac

There never was a question for me about what to replace my burnt out iMac with . . . as a writer I've been using a Mac since the Mac Plus in the late '80s. User friendly and virus free was perfect for my needs.This 2017 model replaced my late 2012 iMac. I wasn't sure I'd experience a real difference between the two, but I immediately noticed an improvement in speed as well as markedly higher quality screen graphics. After adding another 12 gigabytes of RAM I saw performance improve even more (that's another good thing about the iMac . . . easy to pop in more RAM). I'm usually simultaneously running a couple different browsers with multiple windows open, MS Word, Mail, Adobe Lightroom, and a drawing program (EasyDraw); and then all that will still be up when my wife uses Excel to budget. The 2012 iMac with 8 gigs of RAM never had a problem handling things, but I have to admit 20 gigabytes works a lot better.All in all this model has proven to a be superb upgrade.

Fast & beautiful

Replaced an almost 10 year old iMac 27" (mid 2009) due to bad video card. This iMac even better in all respects. Fast, great display, lighter, more features. I look forward to another 10 more years of Apple reliability, performance & service. Adorama not only had the best price but also was prompt, great communication and fast shipping. Great all around.

I bought this to replace my 21" iMac with 8G of memory and a standard hard drive. I was amazed at how fast this new computer was. I no longer had to wait for Photoshop to load. Click the app and there it was.

Love The 2017 iMac

I upgraded from the 2012 15" Mac Book Pro to the 27" iMac. Wow!! What a difference. The colors are more vivid. The speed is sooo much faster. And the screen brightness is way more than I expected. With the added monitor real estate, I can increase the font size to help with my aging eyes! I cannot believe it took so long to upgrade to the 2017 iMac! No regrets!

Very pleased!

By Edward M.

This Mac will be my last computer, so I spent more to get something that I know will last and I'll enjoy in my waning years. I wanted the solid state drive because of it's speed with no moving parts. I' m 78 now and slowing down and love this Mac. Adorama had the best price with a good reputation. The computer arrived quickly and the double box it came in had no dents or rips in. Very pleased!

I am very pleased with this new computer and the price I paid

By David B.

My son had used Adorama for computer purchases in the past. He showed me how to use Apple Insider to get a discount from Adorama. I placed my discounted order and it arrived a day earlier than expected. I am very pleased with this new computer and the price I paid.

The vision is brighter than ever
A desktop experience that draws you in and keeps you there. This is the idea behind today's iMac. And now that idea is more powerful than ever. The new iMac is packed with all-new processors, the latest graphics technologies, innovative storage and higher-bandwidth connectivity. And it all comes to life on the brightest and most colorful Retina display iMac has ever seen. So you get an even more immersive experience - and a scintillating new way to take it all in.

Performance - Think fast - We did

Performance boosts across the board
Faster and more powerful than ever, iMac is now equipped with seventh-generation Intel Core i5 processor and the latest high-performance graphics.

Graphics that render you speechless
iMac features powerful new Radeon Pro 500 series graphics that make a spectacle of everything you see. The 27-inch iMac with Retina 5K display is loaded with up to 8GB of dedicated VRAM. It delivers visual effects and 3D graphics that exhibit raw power in its most polished form. On top of that, you get advanced video editing capabilities. Now you can edit multicam projects in Final Cut Pro X with up to five streams of full-resolution 4K video.

Accelerate your every move
An all-new seventh-generation Intel Core processor in every iMac. It's more speed than iMac has ever reached before. And Turbo Boost gives you even more power when you're using processor-intensive applications like Logic Pro or Final Cut Pro. It all takes place behind the scenes, but you'll see the difference in so many ways.

Storage that's lightning fast. And whip smart.

A virtual first for iMac
VR makes its debut on iMac, with the ability to edit 360deg. video in apps like Final Cut Pro and create cutting-edge 3D VR content.

Retina Display, Retina at its most brilliant

Brighter than ever. More colors than ever
The Retina display shines even more vividly on the new iMac. With one billion colors and 500 nits of brightness, graphics leap off the screen in a whole new light. And the pixel density is so high that you won't detect a single one. Text is so clear and sharp, your email and documents will look smarter than ever. It's simply the best Mac Retina display yet.

The color you shoot is the color you see
The world is full of spectacular colors and iMac brings more of them to your screen. The Retina display uses P3 color that shifts away from standard white LEDs to advanced red-green phosphor LEDs. So all three colors - red, green and blue - are more equally represented and show off real-world color with more balance and precision.

Connectivity Thunderbolt 3 - Make some powerful new connections

Double the speed and bandwidth of the previous generation
Two Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports come standard on all iMac models, each delivering up to 40Gb/s data transfer for external drives and cameras and twice the bandwidth for video and display connectivity. Four USB 3 ports give you plenty of options for connecting peripherals, including your printer, iPhone, thumb drive and more. And with ultrafast three-stream Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2 wireless technology, you're instantly connected to all your favorite content.

Turn your workspace into a showcase
Thunderbolt 3 lets you add one 5K display to the amazing one already on your iMac. Or, as another option, you can connect two 4K displays and put over 32 million pixels into play.

Design - A lot can happen in 5 millimeters

Iconic design. Advanced engineering. Talk about modern art
iMac has always been the ultimate in form and function: An all-in-one computer that puts everything - display, processor, graphics, storage, memory and more - inside one simple, stylish enclosure. The new iMac includes the most advanced, most brilliant desktop display we've ever built and it's filled with all-new technologies that take power and performance to a whole new level. Yet it's still just 5 mm thin at its edge.

Apple Accessories - Rechargeable Remarkable
The new Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad makes typing, editing spreadsheets or navigating pro apps a breeze. Paired with Magic Mouse 2 or Magic Trackpad 2, it works like magic with iMac.

Optional Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad
Whether you're working or gaming, the new Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad makes everything as easy as 1-2-3.

Magic Keyboard
Designed with a sleek, low profile and engineered for stability so you can type with comfort and precision.

Magic Mouse 2
A streamlined design gives the Multi-Touch mouse a solid build and a smooth glide for quality you can feel.

Optional Magic Trackpad 2
Designed with Force Touch technology, it lets you press a little deeper on a large, click-anywhere surface - and do a lot more.

macOS - It's why there's nothing else like a Mac
macOS is the operating system that powers everything you do on a Mac. macOS Sierra introduces Siri to Mac - along with more ways to enjoy your photos, shop securely online and work seamlessly between devices.
