The 24 -inch iMac once had an front apple logo. Here is what it would have looked like
The Apple logo has always been placed before and in the center of the iMac, until the first model of the M series released in 2021. This iMac M1 had a updated design that lacked an Apple logo on its “chin”. And each iMac since then has followed suit.
According to a post X from Kosutami_ito, Apple planned to place an Apple logo on the Menton engineering validation tests (EVT), the plan was to put the Apple logo. But then Apple decided not to do it, and we don’t know why.
Kosutami_ito has history of leaks, with previous accuracy, a year-long year, they displayed that Apple had killed its range of fine cases, which Apple did quietly. In the post iCac, it is not clear if the frame before the image is a real Apple prototype, a product produced by a non -Apple company or an artistic interpretation of what the Apple Imac Apple logo would look like.
The last sentence of the post – “Then they removed it until today” – also raises questions. What does that mean? The image of Apple’s production by a new iMac M5 that will have the logo? Or do they show an image of an early M1 prototype that has not been seen publicly until today?
A disassembly of the iMac shows that the chin houses most of the vital components of the iMac, with a lot of empty space behind the display panel. It seems that Apple aimed to make the iMac as thin as possible, and the chin plays a role in this goal. And as I point out in my examination of the iMac, the chin makes a good place for the post -it notes – with an Apple logo.
