The device is expected to carry 16GB of RAM for the first time and feature three Thunderbolt 4 ports. The new chip in the model is expected to feature a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU, marking an upgrade over the 8-core CPU design of the M3 chip.

M4 iMac
Apple could upgrade the 24-inch Mac with the M4 chip, giving it a performance boost over the current M3 model. The new machine could also feature an upgraded 16GB of RAM and a 10-core CPU, just like the M4 MacBook Pro M4.
M4 Mac mini
Apple's Mac mini is expected to receive the biggest upgrade with new M4 and M4 Pro chip configurations. The machine could also receive a refreshed design with a significant size reduction, making it appear similar to the Apple TV.
