iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017) (2017)

Apple announced the iMac update on June 5, 2017, with orders that day and Apple Store sales scheduled from June 7.

Display and connections

It had four USB 3 ports, two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports, SDXC, Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2 and FaceTime HD.

Options and recreation

Apple lists up to 32 GB memory for the 3.4 GHz base; the 3.5 and 3.8 GHz bases could reach 64 GB and offer a 4.2 GHz quad-core Core i7. Storage options also depended on the base: the 2 TB SSD appears for the 3.8 GHz model, not every model. Today's technical page mentions Mojave and does not determine the June announcement's software.
