Speakers and webcam need improving
Rear sockets aren't the most convenient
Pretty pricey
Price
Ports on the rear difficult to access
Extra RAM from Apple is pricey
1TB Fusion Drive drop in SSD portion (no issue for 2TB)
Not all applications will render resolution optimised
Screen not able to produce 100% of Adobe RGB colour space. Less powerful GPU reduces performance in accelerated apps
We'll hold off on our final verdict until we can more thoroughly test these new iMacs. Our initial impression is that the entry-level model isn't the best deal because it only offers a hard drive and the build to order Fusion Drive takes the price very cl...

Despite making a few compromises this new version of the iMac With Retina 5K Display still has the performance needed to handle the high-end graphics and creative applications that can most benefit from that 5K display. The relatively modest disk perfo...
It's admirable that Apple has added the Retina disaplay to another of its 27in iMacs, bringing the price of entry to the Retina screen down, as well as reducing the price of the existing Retina model. It's probably only a matter of time until the only rem...

Even better 5K display with wider color gamut, Handles tasks like 4K video with ease, Stylish and practical design, Decent builtin speakers
Base model performance suffers from weak graphics, slow disk drive, Needs USBC & more default RAM, Expensive compared to similarlyperforming PCs, Magic Mouse 2 is terrible
Apple's philosophy this year can be summed up with the cliché "if isn't broken, don't fix it." Skylake and better graphics hardware at least keep the iMac relevant, and people new to the Mac platform may be happy, mostly because of the incredible display...
