Apple's Last Intel 21.5-Inch iMac is Now Vintage
Apple today added the 2019 4K iMac to its list of vintage products, which means repairs can only be done if Apple has the parts available. Products are added to the vintage list five years after they were last distributed for sale, and they're moved to the obsolete list at the seven-year mark. Vintage products can be repaired at Apple Stores and by Apple Authorized Service Providers if the parts are available, but that's not guaranteed. Devices that are obsolete are not eligible for repair and Apple no longer makes repair components. The 2019 iMac preceded the colorful, redesigned M1 iMac that came out in 2021. The machine featured a 21.5-inch Retina 4K display and the standard silver iMac design. The base model was equipped with an Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB RAM, and a 1TB hard drive. Pricing in 2019 started at $1,299.
