iMac 4K 21.5-inch was launched this week by the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), and of course it was disassembled by iFixIt to show us what is hidden inside the new product from Cupertino, and in this article we will discuss the details.
According to iFixIt, the iMac 4K 21.5 inch is the most difficult Mac to repair, and that's because Apple decided to weld the RAM to the Mac's logic board, so users can't upgrade the RAM, but neither I can't change any faulty module without changing the whole motherboard.
Moreover, the processor is also welded to the motherboard and cannot be replaced without it, the Fusion Drive does not have any connector on the motherboard, so users cannot in any way modify the storage space provided by it for the new iMac.
Moving on to the screen, the people from iFixIt discovered that the outer glass and the LCD panel are welded, so they must be replaced together, so the final cost of any repair will be much higher than in the case of the old iMac models, Apple seriously complicating things.
The conclusion for all this is that any person who buys iMac 4K 21.5 inches must stay with the product as he got it from the store, if he does not want to have serious costs with the replacement of components or possible upgrades.
