    I want to thank Best Buy for helping me set-up my computers. I replaced my 10 year old I-Mac for a new 8th Gen I-mac. Very impressed and happy with new computer. I do a lot of photo editing and it works well.

    This 21.5" iMac works well for what it is. I needed it for work while on quarantine and it fit my needs perfectly. I read reviews about the hard drive being lackluster and the processor not being the newest, best, but neither have given me any issues. For work, YouTube and general web surfing, this is more than adequate. I do think that the bezels are far too large for a modern computer. You could easily get another 2" of screen if the bezels were reduced. The downward facing speakers are also a little odd. You get some strange effects from this arrangement. The overall design is sleek and elegant and very sturdy as expected from an Apple device. it fits well in my limited desk space and has a very small footprint. The magic mouse is pretty neat, but takes some getting used to. Personally, I think they should do away with the standard magic keyboard in favor of the one with a number pad. The included keyboard is small and cramped.
