    I purchased this Mac to replace my previous iMac that had developed a serious corruption. The setup was incredibly simple with all of my information being downloaded to the new machine through the Apple iCloud system. It took only about 30 minutes to get everything up and running. Best Buy was great about matching a competitors sale price - no problems. Mac is the way to go if you don't want to spend a lot of time (or have the skills) to mess with hardware. Overall a great computer at a great price.

    This was my first Apple iMac. I have used HP Computers since the late 1980's. The iMac was a snap to get operating. It is very familiar to me because I have been using Apple iPhones for years. I believe my on-line security was at risk with the HP's. The iMac is faster without the typical wait to load web pages. Maybe the best part is I don't need to use anything from Microsoft.

    I always bought a PC due to price. The PC I just purchased had a defective USB port. Took that PC back. I decided to spend the extra money and purchase the iMac. Wow! Why did I wait so long? Seriously, incredibly easy to set up. I have an iPhone X and the iPad Air which was a piece of cake to sync. The one piece unit with a beautful look and so user friendly just makes me happy. The only downside is there is no DVD player. I will purchase an external drive. Happy with the iMac.

    My new iMac desktop is terrific

    My old iMac was over 8 1/2 years old, and had many problems. It's conceivable that I night have had the disk cleaned after copying the saved documents and emails, but it was also excruciatingly slow. My new one is figuratively and actually many steps up in speed, ease of use, and pleasure. As a previous Windows computer user, replacing computers was at least every 4 years. Changing to Mac wasn't easy initially, but now I'd never go back.

    I have been an Apple user for many years. So when looking at a computer that was fast and reliable... I always had an eye on a Mac. After comparing to other computers... it was a no brainer.

    This new version is heads above my old 2009 2.9GHz model. Had a good 10yr run with it but was time for a new machine as Ive been editing a lot of video lately and it was lagging. This one is super fast in comparison and soo thin it looks like a giant iPad. The new display is super colorful as well and breathes new life into my photos/videos. It also comes with the cool new wireless smart mouse and keyboard.

    I was previously a PC guy. And had reservations about switching over but I was very pleased at how easy the transition was. Still using both but more of the MAC. Excellent service.

    This iMac desktop is a thing of beauty. It's the perfect size for the space I have to work with. I'm grateful for my Best Buy Apple Master, Cody, being on the job the day I went into the store to begin the process of selecting a new computer. He steered me in exactly in the right direction with this 21.5" iMAC. It's been virtually painless in making the transition from a PC to this Apple computer. I'm quite satisfied!

    This iMac is everything I need and more. It is perfect for being a full-time student. I love the ease and accessibility between the iMac and my other Apple devices, such as having a web page or text message open on my iPhone and resuming the activity on my iMac. Also, I was slightly concerned with this iMac being a little slower than the other models but it is the fastest computer I've ever owned! Overall, great buy.

    I bought this I-Mac particularly because of my vision problems. It is a great improvement on my former computer screen. I am a new Apple user and have found the I-Mac operating system to be straight-forward and easy to learn. Also, the screen is simpler for me to view and interpret than the most recent version of Microsoft Windows.
