## Description

Product Description               Newest Version • 4K Retina display: With over nine million pixels on show, the 4K Retina display on 21.4-inch iMac is a dazzling experience that you have to experience to really understand how stunning it is. Designed to ensure that your eyes won't be able to discern individual pixels from a normal viewing distance, images take on a new level of realism, while text is sharp and clear. Colours on the Retina display are rich and vibrant, while a high contrast ratio makes blacks appear blacker and whites whiter. • Lifelike images are brought to the smaller screen. For the first time Apple has built its 21.5-inch iMac with a Retina 4K display and a resolution of 4096 x 2304, which equates to a total of 9.4 million pixels. This is more than four times the number of pixels available in the standard 21.5-in iMac models. To further enhance its impressively thin edges and sleek curves, the 21.5-inch iMac with a Retina 4K comes with updated Apple Magic accessories to make Apple's small-scale powerhouse an object of pure beauty. • Fifth-Generation Intel Core i5: The fifth generation Intel Core i5 processor will handle whatever you throw at it, allowing you to multi-task and work on intensive applications without experiencing any lag. Applications run faster and more efficiently than before. So everything you normally do on a computer you can do even quicker. Send email, write reports, create presentations, touch up photos, edit home movies and all the little (and big) tasks in between. The i5 uses the Intel HD Graphics 6000 GPU to ensure visuals are smooth whether you're playing a game, watching a video or editing a photo. • Sleeker wireless accessories: An extra sprinkle of fairy dust has been added to the wireless accessories to give them all a more spellbinding shape. The Magic Keyboard has had the cylindrical battery section removed, allowing it to lie completely flat. A similar design update was given to the Magic Trackpad 2 by making it white all over for matching aesthetic results and with the functionality to support Force Touch gestures (same as MacBook Pro). The Magic Mouse 2 is lighter yet sturdier and designed with an optimised base for a smoother glide                  Box Contains               iMac 21.5" 4K Retina, Core i5 3.1GHz/8GB/1TB/Intel Iris Pro 6200

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delighted with my move to Apple iMac with 21.5 inch Retina display
*by S***E on 12 March 2017*

I was exasperated by Windows 10, an upgrade of which blocked my access to the internet. Without internet access, Microsoft could not verify my purchase of Office 365 and blocked me from continuing to use it, although I had paid for a further nine months of use. I purchased "Switching to a Mac for Dummies" from Amazon and, after reading it, decided that, despite being naive on the ways of computers, I could manage a change to an Apple iMac All-in-one. I use my home computer mainly for e-mails, on-line shopping, word processing and spread sheets. The iMac comes with word processing and spreadsheet software that is adequate for my needs. The "Dummies" book has proven indispensable for getting a grip on the iMac and its mouse and keyboard. The supplied keyboard is fine for my pick and peck typing but might not suit a trained typist. I am reluctant to pay Microsoft for Office on the iMac after my bad experience with their products. Despite the cost, I am delighted to have emigrated to Mac. This is my first All-in-one computer and this 21.5 inch iMac screen is clear and bright..

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ And welcome change from Windows to Mac 😁👍
*by M***  on 25 April 2017*

After becoming completely drained with the new OS by Windows ( 8, 8.1 and 10 ) which i hate with a passion i chose to move over to Apple Mac, what a welcomed change.So easy to use and set up, only problem i had was moving my iTunes Library of some 4000 Tunes, i attemptied this with the Apple Migration Windows Tool, but only purchased content migrated. I had to do a complete reset of the Mac and reinstall the software. I then purchased a program that allows you to transfer music directly from your iPhone to iTunes and this worked so im very pleased.Not so good if you are a Command & Conquer Fan like me as everything is just far too close over the Window's version.Expensive but worth it...

### ⭐ The computer is 2yrs old but the hard drive is 20yr old technology and it renders this machine almost useless
*by J***D on 30 January 2017*

Slow, slow sloooooooow. Unbelieeeeeeeevably slow hard drive. I'm not joking here it is as slow as my 10yr old budget PC laptop that I thought i had condemned. No dvd drive. Rubbish keyboard for typing - looks smart but is horrible to use. It has crashed numourous times. The monitor is stunning which is a good job because you will be staring at it for a long time waiting for anything to happen. What a hugely expensive dissapointed this is. It is my first Apple mac and probably my last. And, all that is from someone who was just was fed up of using an old windows vista laptop. I still get it out sometimes when the mac won't work on a website or i just need to move some files around its so much easier!
