Apple iMac 27 inch 2012 Review
 |
| New Apple iMac |
It was on 30 November 2012, that Apple started selling its 2012 iMac through its Stores. When we are discussing about new i-phone or new i-pad then here comes new advanced and sleek desktop by Apple. Apple is leading brand of gadgets and smartphones in the world. It is followed all over by royal authorities, celebrities and other higher dignities. The iMac has always been about stylish looks and designs. User always found something new and innovative from Apple desktops. Let’s see what this fish has got. So let’s talk about its features and overall build quality.
Design and Layout:
Screen | 27-inch Screen |
Resolution | 2560 x 1440 |
Panel | Has Backlit panel with IPS technology which offers clear and share viewing from 178 degrees. |
Brightness | Up to 300 nits |
Lamination | Due to its full lamination process and coating on glass, it removes 2mm gap between the screen and the glass covering it. Also minimizes reflection by 75 %. |
Touchscreen | Has Touchpad but No Touch available, buyers will have to look elsewhere. This is major DRAWBACK of this cool desktop. |
Screen Care | It’s so sensitive that it picks every possible dust or finger points. So take proper precautions while handling it. |
Thickness | 5 mm at its edges. Incredibly thin. |
Optical Drive | Not available |
USB | 4 ports of USB 3.0 |
Thunderbolt Ports | Two |
Jack | 1 Mini-display and 1 Ethernet jack. |
SD Card Slot | Available |
Screen Angle | You do not have to adjust the angle of the display even if bright light falls on it. |
Frame | Silver Aluminum |
Watching images and HD videos on this screen is an immersive experience. Colors are vivid and clear. Even in some images it actually looked as if objects will pop out due to its detailing –level.
Inside Capability:
CPU | Quad-core 3.4GHz Intel Core i7 processor |
RAM | 8GB of DDR 3 memory |
GPU | NVidia GTX 660M with 512MB. Also higher versions available like GTX 675MX and GTX 680MX |
Drive | 1TB Fusion drive |
Run | OS X 10.8.2(latest version of Mountain Lion), Tweetdeck, iTunes, Apples Mail, YouTube video, Chrome browser and many more. |
Fusion Drive is new innovation by Apple i.e. it uses flash drive and put it with a larger regular spinning hard drive. It enhances its performance and applications open quickly.
Additional Details:
The iMac comes with Apple’s wireless keyboard and a Magic Mouse. You can also choose Magic Trackpad in replace of magic Mouse. Both are comfortable and good. You can pair them with computer via Bluetooth 4.0. But, I recommend you to pick Magic Trackpad.
Price:
It is available at $1,799 whereas 21.5-inch version available at $1,299. To get Fusion Drives, you have to pay additional $250.
