iMac has always been about having a huge, immersive place to see and create amazing things. So making the best possible iMac meant making the best possible display. The 27‑inch iMac with Retina 5K display has four times as many pixels as the standard 27‑inch iMac display. So you experience unbelievable detail. At such a scale, even the best existing technologies wouldn’t have made this iMac possible.

So impossible is done! — developing a display with the performance to light up 14.7 million pixels, reducing energy consumption while maintaining high standard for brightness, and advancing image quality for the most striking contrast ever, all of that done without compromising the incredibly thin design, just 5 mm at its edge.

An incredible amount of engineering was required to bring the Retina display to the iMac family. Witness a design that’s just 5 mm at its edge — yet entirely capable of making everything around you fade into the distance. This ensures that nothing gets between you and your favorite content. Seamless and beautiful, iMac with Retina 5K display is an elegant addition to your workspace, representing a depth of technology at the height of design.
