Apple is reportedly developing a larger iMac with over 30-inch display

According to the latest reports, a larger iMac with a display over 30 inches is reportedly in development, though its release date remains uncertain.

You might soon have the option to upgrade your workspace with a bigger iMac, as Apple is reportedly continuing to develop a model with a display larger than 30 inches. However, the exact timing of its release remains uncertain, according to the latest insights from Mark Gurman of Bloomberg.

Gurman, a well-known tech journalist, has shared that while Apple is actively exploring the possibility of launching this larger iMac, thereโ€™s no definitive information on whether it will be equipped with the upcoming M4 chipset. Although Apple is expected to release an updated version of the 24-inch iMac later this year, this larger model may not be ready for launch just yet.

Development and rumours

The first rumours about a larger iMac surfaced in early 2022 when enthusiasts began speculating about Appleโ€™s plans to expand its iMac lineup. At that time, reports indicated that Apple wasnโ€™t rushing to release this bigger model and had no immediate plans for such a device.

However, in July 2022, Gurman added fuel to the speculation by reporting that Apple was working on a larger-screened iMac aimed at the professional market. This news was particularly exciting for professionals who rely on larger displays for tasks like video editing, graphic design, and other creative work.

Fast-forward to July 2023, and Gurman provided another update, revealing that the large-screened iMacs were still in the early stages of development. Apple was reportedly testing a version with a 32-inch display, which would significantly improve on the 27-inch iMac, currently the largest in Appleโ€™s lineup.

Apple’s stance on iMac sizes

Despite the ongoing development of this larger iMac, Apple has remained tight-lipped about its plans. When the company refreshed the 24-inch iMac in October last year, there were no plans to release a 27-inch iMac, disappointing those hoping for a larger option.

Itโ€™s worth noting that Apple has never produced an iMac with a display larger than 27 inches, making this rumoured model a potential game-changer for users who require more screen real estate.

Based on the most recent reports, it seems likely that this highly anticipated larger iMac will debut sometime next year or possibly in 2026. Until then, Apple enthusiasts and professionals will have to wait and see if this rumour becomes a reality.
