When it comes to computers, Apple may be better known for its sleek and popular MacBook laptops, but it also has an outstanding reputation for making quality, high-performance desktops. There are a handful of modest discounts on the latest models, and those on a tight budget can check out the 2023 M3 iMac, which is available at a $550 savings. To help you make the most of these deals, we've rounded up all the best iMac deals out there below. The latest M4 iMac is our overall favorite desktop this year, and it's even better if you can pick one up for less.

Best M4 iMac deals
The new M4 chip is even faster, and Apple has (slightly) tweaked the colors that you can choose from, too. The new Macs support Apple Intelligence and will work with the latest MacOS software for years to come. This is clearly the best iMac yet, and we've found all the best prices, so you don't pay a penny more than necessary.
There aren't any direct discounts from Apple, but if you use your Apple Card*, you can get 3% off the retail price. And if you have an old device lying around, you can score some extra bucks off with a trade-in. Exact trade-in value depends on the device being traded, with the highest values coming from M3 iMacs. You'll also get three free months of Apple TV Plus with the purchase, as long as you're a new or returning subscriber.
You can choose from seven colors and between an 8-core and 10-core CPU and GPU, as well as different storage options.
Apple's latest iMac is in stock and available at Amazon. The retailer is offering $117 off a new iMac if you choose the blue variant. Smaller discounts are also available on the other colors.
You'll find select configurations of the 10-core model on sale for up to $151 off right now as well.
If you're after one of the more advanced configurations of this all-in-one desktop, you may be able to find some savings at B&H Photo. The online retailer is currently offering $104 off the 10-core model with 512GB of storage and a blistering 24GB of RAM. (Note: This deal only applies to the silver variant.)
Best Buy is offering the new iMac M4 in all four colors, but there's no current discount available. You can save when you trade in a similar device, and you'll also get some free Apple service included.
Best M3 iMac deals
Even though this is an older chip, it's still super speedy, its availability and deals are becoming scarce.
Best Buy is one of the only retailers that still has the M3 iMac available, but it isn't offering any discounts right now. However, you can also trade in an old computer for even more savings.
Adorama has one of the best offers out there on this previous-gen desktop. Right now, you can pick up the 16GB model in silver for $1,349. That's $550 off the original price.
