Is the iMac Pro Still Worth Buying in 2023?

Question

Zauważyłem, że ceny iMaców Pro pociągnęły w dół. Czy uważacie, że jest to wciąż jakaś dobra oferta w Apple w 2023 roku?

Answer 1

Yes, the iMac Pro can still make sense economically within the realm of Apple computing. That is of course if you are able to secure a bargain. It may be an old model but it does boast an impressive display, provide acceptable camera quality and decent performance for its price. As the mid-tier Apple offering is quite limited, the iMac Pro may be a good option for those who are looking for a strong desktop but do not want to pay for the latest models.

Thanks for making the prices spike up . They WERE still the same as they were 2 years ago, now they're gonna double up.

Yes, you are right. But - if you rendering or gaming on your iMac Pro you have a "Jet-Fan-Plane" on the desk.
And if anyone buy a used iMac Pro jet, what is in the next year when the m2 and m3 released.
Next point is energy consumption, what is getting more importent.

The problem is that no one knows when Apple will partially or completely drop support for X86 machines

Nice content Luke. Only concern I have is the impending demise of X86 support in future versions of MacOS with no hope of patching. Spending $3500 on a computer that's going to have support dropped by 2025 is a very poor value for someone like a musician who tends to keep computers until they are fully unsupported and then upgrade. Just a thought.

Maybe in the USA...but elsewhere people still overcharge a lot you might as well buy new M1 or M2...
