    Bought this for my Mom to replace her ailing Windows PC. This one is much easier to use and harder for her to mess up. The only challenge was overcoming the barrier of being used to Windows and now having MacOS.

    This computer has been the best one I have ever purchased. With all the preinstalled apps along with working top notch with my iPhone, iPads. I have been a windows user forever and this made my life so much easier. Photo editing was great with 4k retina.

    I recently bought the new 24 inch iMac M1 for my main computer and was going to recycle the late 2012 iMac 21.5 it replaces until I decided that perhaps the 21.5 inch would be a good second machine for the bedroom. It still ran very well but could only upgrade to iOS 10. All of a sudden I thought "I wonder if a new late model Intel based iMac is still available? I tried eBay, Sweetwater, B&H Photo, Amazon...nothing available unless it was used or refurbished. I then sent on Bestbuy.com to see but wasn't optimistic after all of the "dead ends." Lo and BEHOLD!! There was THIS late 2019 iMac!! It was ON SALE for $999. Could it be true?? YES! The deciding factor was the display is Retina 4K. OMG! I am a display freak and don't like pixels. I hit ORDER NOW and picked it up a couple hours later at my local Best Buy. GRAB THIS THING WHILE YOU CAN!!! It will make a great secondary iMac or if you don't do a lot of power-play on your computer, a great primary computer. Granted it's only got 8GB RAM but my old iMac 21.5 also had just 8GB RAM and I never had a problem. I still cannot believe these are available new. THANK YOU BEST BUY. This model really DID retail for $1499 new. It's not fake news. This is BY FAR the BEST BUY I've ever made at BEST BUY. One more thing, the Intel Core i7 is my sweet spot with computers but this one's i5 so far is very snappy and very useable. SERIOUSLY, if you want an all-in-one desktop computer with 4K display for the price of an entry level MacBook Air....$999....this is a STEAL. Best Buy ROCKS. PS: If you don't grab this now while it's still new and available, you'll kick yourself. Don't say I didn't warn you.

    This 4K iMac is the absolute best bang for your dollar! You don’t like macOS you say? No problem. Just install Windows running virtually or physically and you have the option of switching back and forth! It’s a no brainer. The screen by itself on this computer would cost you about $600 and the performance is enough for most gamers! Also, don’t forget the audio on this thing is enough to throw a party! Don’t be a lemming and think about the benefits of getting quality hardware for whatever your need may be.

    This iMac replaced my late 2013 model and I am very pleased with my purchase. The iMac's SSD and processor are great and it is incredibly fast. The display/graphics are awesome as well especially when compared with my previous iMac. Big Sur is great as well. I was torn between this and the new 24'' iMac but based on my usage and needs, I am happy that I went with this model. I HIGHLY recommend this iMac.

    I was looking to add equipment to my one-person small business but had a limited budget, and needed something where photoshop would work on it. This out of box deal was great and works well. NEED to get an external harddrive as the computer itself doesn't have enough space, but that's not a problem.

    My son needed a computer for his school work for 7th grade. I saw this computer on sale for $500 off, and thought it was a great deal. I was able to pick it up the same day from our local Best Buy. Being a Mac, it was a super simple set up. Needless to say my son is thrilled and I use the machine while he's at school. We ended up hooking up a Dell monitor to the Mac for more space. No issues so far!

    I purchased this computer to help out with teaching classes on line, and it has worked like a gem. no issues at all. I love MACs and will always use on in the future. I am used to how they function, and am very pleased with the speed of the computer. Of course, MACs are a lot more expensive than PC's, but they last a long time. My last MAC lasted 10 years.

    A Great iMac For What It Is, Soon To Be Extinct!

    I purchased this iMac for my wife. It's her first experience with an iMac since she's only used Windows based PC's before. After giving her an hour or so lesson on the operation of MacOS I turned her loose and let her learn one the fly. This particular model is near the bottom rung of the Intel based iMacs. So set your expectations accordingly. You can't replace to upgrade the RAM or SSD unless you really want to preform what is akin to brain surgery on this iMac. It does just about everything you need to do well. If my wife didn't need that one piece pf software the runs on Windows and has no MacOS equivalent I would have gotten her the M1 iMac. That being said you can run Bootcamp on this (I run it from an external drive. There are many videos explaining how to do this.), It does run the native Apple apps well. We run the Microsoft Office suite and Quicken on it and it works great. So if you can get one on sale and need it for home or student use it a good investment.

    The Classic iMac offers more.

    There are many things to like about the new M1 iMacs but just as many to be disappointed in. Case in point is that the entry level model which is still un-upgradeable but only has 2 USB4/Thunderbolt 4 ports both of which require USB-C cables or adapters. This Intel iMac has 2 Thunderbolt 3/USB3/USB-C ports and 4 standard USB ports and an Ethernet port and an SD memory card slot. If you only use WiFi and all your other peripherals are wireless then that is less of a problem. But if you have a USB backup hard drive or use USB flash drives, you will need adapters at $15~80 a pop. The other noticeable difference is that you may still find apps that don’t run on Apple silicon but run just fine on the older Intel iMac. Given the choice, I went with the classic Intel iMac, even knowing the future wil be with Apple Silicon. Chances are that by the time you can read this, the 21.5” i5 iMac will be sold out, but it is worth considering while still available.
