Customers are saying

Customers value the 21.5" iMac's stunning display quality, ease of use, and compact design. Many appreciate the crisp, colorful picture and the user-friendly interface. Some wish for more RAM and a faster hard drive, and the lack of a CD drive is also a recurring concern. Overall, the positive feedback on the display and ease of use outweighs the negative comments regarding storage and upgradeability.

    I for the additional desktop space. I haven't MacBook air so this is just a supplement but it's so much powerful it's been coming in so clutch! My photoshop and indesign projects look 5xs better on my desktop!

    We bought this for small projects that me and my wife do, I have yet to use if to record my music but my wife used it for some photo editing and it worked perfectly and easily. She was skeptical about it before now she's in love with it made everything she did fun and the photos looked a little professional. Love our purchase!

    As usual, Apple delivers a reliable, easy-to-use, aesthetically pleasing computer. Ther Retina display is gorgeous, and especially stunning on a 21" screen. Earlier reports of traditional web pages looking grainy and annoying on the high-res display haven't been an issue for me; it up regulates the screen quality well. It's not quite as fast as I was hoping but handles apps well. Overall happy with the purchase and would recommend this iMac.

    After being a die hard PC user for the last 30 years we decided to take the plunge and switched to an IMAC. We have found the change fairly painless. Our IMac has been easy to use and we are glad we opted for the 4K screen. Great color, great speed while using the internet and confident that viruses will be held to a minimum.

    This is my first Apple computer and after many years on a PC--this computer is very easy to use at it is truly user-friendly. I also have had to contact apple support a few times while setting up the computer and each time they were very responsive, helpful, polite and got the job done! I am a bit, just a bit, in awe.

    Two things to consider before purchasing this... The hard drive is very slow and the RAM is not upgradeable. If you can live with these things you'll love this computer!

    I made the change from PC to Mac, after a long time in the decision process. My interests now lean towards photography, rather than business applications, so the iMac was a clear choice. The Best Buy sales guy Marc was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful offering information to assist me in my decision.

    This is a great product. Visually it is wonderful. Intuitive to use. The mouse moves easily and the small key board, I wasn't sure I'd like. But it works great. I am very pleased.
