Apple iMac M3 review: Pricey, but a worthy all-in-one with good performance

The iMac 24-inch is the singular Apple device, outside of the MacBook Pro, to incorporate the latest 3-nanometer M3 chip. Although the all-in-one does not deploy the more potent chips within the M3 line — currently reserved for the MacBook Pro — the entry-level chip in the iMac M3 inherits innovations such as hardware-accelerated ray tracing and dynamic caching. This is of significance, as the chip and its associated advancements constitute the sole elements steering the user experience in the all-in-one, which otherwise bears an identical appearance to the last-generation model, powered by the M1 chip.
