Today we are going to cover everything there is to know about Apple’s highly anticipated iMac 2018 starting with specs, possible launch date and ending with expected price. The topic that we will cover the most is the CPU one since that is the hardware part that matters the most. With that being said, let’s get into it.
Processor Variants
As previously mentioned, the most important piece of hardware that the upcoming iMac 2018 will have to offer is the CPU.

However, Apple might also take things to the next level and introduce a 64GB RAM model.
Expected Launch Date and Price
iMac 5 was revealed back in 2017 in June during the WWDC conference. However, Apple’s didn’t reveal iMac 2018 during this year’s WWDC conference and this leads us to believe that Apple might be planning to launch the device in September, at the same time with its next-generation iPhone models.
