How does the 24-inch iMac's design differ from the 27-inch model?

Question

In what areas do the new 24-inch iMac and the older 27 inches iMac differ in terms of design?

Answer 1

When the new 24-inch iMac is compared to its older sibling, the 27-inch model, it can be concluded that the latter is three inches thicker and heavier. Overall, it has a more rounded design but with a sparser aesthetic than the 27-inch Apple iMac. Unlike the other models, this version does not have the chin logotype; therefore, the Apple badge can be baffling to locate. The new 24 inch does not have a stand which is larger in size, camera cut-outs, and RAM doors, which were previously found on the larger model. The iMac also has a cleaner design, as its speaker and exhaust vents are located within a strip on the lower edge of the device. Apple removed the old rubber pads, which have now been replaced with those that were seen in leaks regarding the new MacBook Air, and changed the chromatic Apple emblem, which was seen on the back of the device.

I must say that the old iMac’s (& iMac Pro’s) design looks so much more sleek and modern even though it’s thick. It has some class to it.

The old design is better.  I don't care how thin it is.  I want ports and functionality.

---

I don't know why but I feel like the old design of the iMac looks more premium than the new one. At least from the front.

---

I really don’t like the direction apple are taking with these iMacs. They’ve gone from being something used by professionals to making it something that goes in a kids bedroom.

---

27' imac still a great option , ports are needed most of the time Sr.

---

That old 27 inch mac looks so much better. The new one looks like a kids version with the white bezels

---

Although it is thinner and faster, I am still in love with the current 27 inch iMac design, it still looks more modern than the new 24 inch iMac.

---

IMO, design of the iMac 27 keeps on being way more beautiful than the newer iMac 24 M1

---

The old 27 iMac design was a beautiful silhouette.

Wow side by side the original iMac looks soooooooo much better than the new one.
