The new 27-inch Apple iMac adds a stunning 5K display for not much more than last year's high-end model. The design, while not updated, remains the gold standard for all-in-one desktops
Except for the new screen and a different GPU, the components are essentially unchanged from last year's version. The high starting price only gets you a mid-level Core i5 processor
Apple skips 4K and goes directly to what the company calls a 5K display in this expensive, extravagant all-in-one iMac desktop that will appeal to photo and video professionals -- or anyone else looking for the best possible screen resolution....

Brilliant 27-inch 5K display brings Retina to the iMac. High-end performance for video and photo editing. Fusion Drive comes standard.
Loses the monitor functionality of other iMacs. Upgrades limited to adding RAM. Lacks height adjustment. Rear-mounted ports aren't convenient

Such a beautiful jaw-droppingly brilliant screen; Excellent colour and brightness, with so much of each to offer; Monitor goes beyond the 4K UHD resolution, and is technically 5K, meaning video editors can see the full 4K picture when they're editing; Sol
Apple's SD card slot placement is still questionable on the back; Expensive;
If the Mac Pro is out of reach and you just don't have enough to splurge on the amazeballs Darth Vader-esque machine that sits in Apple's top-end, the iMac with Retina is an ideal second place, upgrading the already excellent iMac with a monitor that real...

Incredible screen, OS X Yosemite is a great upgrade, Well priced
Yosemite has a habit of dropping frames, Not good enough to be a pro video editing machine, Still no UHD content readily available
Listen. Few people really need this resolution, you want it. And that's ok. You're allowed to. If you're one of those people who has a need over a want, assess that you want to spend the extra $500 to get your hands on it. Think of it this way: you can g...
