Apple has started accepting pre-orders for the 24-inch iMac, 2021 iPad Pro, and the new Apple TV 4K on its online store. The company had announced all these products at its ‘Spring Loaded’ event on April 20.

During the event, Apple had only mentioned that the 2021 iPad Pro, 24-inch iMac, and the new Apple TV 4K will be available in the second half of May. Leaks suggest all these products will go on sale from May 21.

The newly redesigned iMac features a bigger 24-inch 4.5K Retina Display. Despite the bigger display, the 24-inch iMac is 50% smaller in volume. It is powered by Apple’s M1 chip and offers up to 80% better performance than the outgoing 21.5-inch Intel-based iMacs. It can be configured with up to 16GB of unified memory.

2021 iPad Pro

From a design standpoint, the 2021 iPad Pro might not look that different from the 2020 models. However, Apple has made some major internal upgrades. The 2021 iPad Pro features Apple’s M1 chip, the same chip that it uses on the 13-inch MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, and the 24-inch iMac.

The tablets also feature Thunderbolt connectivity allowing you to connect high-bandwidth storage devices and other accessories. The front camera has also been upgraded to offer the ‘Center Stage’ feature. The 12.9-inch iPad Pro features a Liquid Retina XDR display, which offers a peak brightness of 1,600 nits and a contrast ratio of 1 million-to-1.
