If you’ve been waiting on a new 27-inch to upgrade your desktop setup, maybe consider the new 24-inch iMac or a Mac Studio instead. Despite reports to the contrary, Apple this morning said it won’t be releasing a larger screen all-in-one desktop.

The company is positioning the 24-inch M3 iMac as a compromise between the 2019 Intel iMac’s  21.5- and 27-inch displays. The M3 model’s 4.5K resolution, meanwhile, quite literally splits the difference between the old 4K and 5K models. It shares both of those characteristics with the M1 iMac released in 2020 – in fact, the new model is quite similar to its predecessor in most ways beyond the chip upgrade.
