When you think about Apple computers, the iconic iMac is likely the first Mac that springs to mind. The colorful desktop computer is unlike any other, but its high asking price is enough to put some people off. Thankfully, you don't always have to pay full price, especially if you don't buy yours from the Apple Store. To help you make the most of these deals, we’ve rounded up all the best iMac offers below. The latest M4 iMac is our overall favorite desktop this year and it’s even better if you can pick one up for less.

Best M4 iMac deals 

The new M4 chip is even faster, and Apple has (slightly) tweaked the colors you can choose from, too. The new Macs support Apple Intelligence and will work with the latest MacOS software for years to come. This is clearly the best iMac yet and we’ve found all the best prices so you don’t pay a penny more than necessary.

There aren't any direct discounts from Apple, but if you use your Apple Card,* you can get 3% off the retail price. And if you have an old device lying around, you can score some extra bucks off with a trade-in. Exact trade-in value depends on the device being traded, with the highest values coming from M3 iMacs. You'll also get three free months of Apple TV with the purchase, as long as you're a new or returning subscriber.

You can choose from seven colors and between an 8-core and 10-core CPU and GPU, as well as different storage options.

Best M3 iMac deals 

Even though this is an older chip, it’s still super speedy. However, availability and deals are becoming scarce.

Adorama previously had one of the best offers out there on this previous-gen desktop. The retailer was offering the 16GB model in silver for $1,299. That's $600 off the original price, but the company has no iMacs in stock currently.

How we choose iMac deals at CNET

For iMac deals, highlighting any retailers offering direct discounts is our priority. However, these types of discounts can be hard to come by, especially for newer models like the iMac M4. There are sometimes creative ways to save with trade‑in discounts, bundle deals, card savings and more, so we’ll highlight those from reputable retailers when they arise.
