Apple iMac 24-inch M4 — Two Thunderbolt Ports VESA Mount Adapter + Gigabit Ethernet + 16GB RAM + 256GB SSD

Apple iMac 24-inch M4 — Two Thunderbolt Ports Overview

The Apple iMac 24-inch M4 — Two Thunderbolt Ports price in Kenya is KShs 214,500. This all-in-one Mac suits a study, home office or reception desk where a sharp screen, clear video calls and a complete keyboard-and-mouse setup matter more than a separate tower. Its 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU and 16GB unified memory handle everyday documents, browser work and photo projects, while the 4.5K Retina display keeps text and images detailed. If your desk needs more connections, Touch ID or two external displays, compare the Apple iMac 24-inch M4 — Four Thunderbolt Ports before choosing.

A 4.5K screen for everyday work and creative projects

The 24-inch display measures 23.5 inches diagonally and has a 4480 × 2520 resolution, 500-nit brightness and P3 wide colour. It gives spreadsheets, photographs and reading material useful detail without filling the desk with a large monitor. True Tone adjusts the display to ambient light; colour-critical work still benefits from controlled lighting and an appropriate calibrated workflow. This two-port model has standard glass and is not a touchscreen.

What the M4 and 16GB memory are suited to

The M4 combines an 8-core CPU and 8-core GPU with a 16-core Neural Engine. The listed 16GB RAM + 256GB SSD configuration is a sensible fit for office applications, study, video meetings and moderate photo or video projects. Hardware acceleration for formats including H.264, HEVC and ProRes helps supported editing applications, but complex effects, large media libraries and heavy multitasking warrant a higher-memory machine. Check that specialist work or course software supports Apple silicon and macOS.

Unified memory is shared by the CPU and GPU and is not a later RAM upgrade. The 256GB SSD holds macOS, applications and your files, so usable space is lower than its advertised capacity. A fast external SSD can expand file storage; it cannot increase unified memory. For a desktop built around an existing monitor, the Apple Mac mini with M4 offers another route without buying a second built-in screen.

Stand or VESA: choose how the iMac fits your desk

The catalogue offers a Stand configuration for placing the computer directly on a desk, or a VESA Mount Adapter configuration for an appropriate monitor arm or wall mount. Choose the mounting version for the intended installation; a VESA adapter is not an included monitor arm. Check the mount’s compatibility, load rating and desk clearance before installation. Both choices retain the same M4 processor, 16GB memory, 256GB storage and 4.5K display.

Gigabit Ethernet or No Ethernet

The Gigabit Ethernet configuration supplies a wired-network connection through the power adapter, useful for a fixed office desk or large transfers over a local network. The No Ethernet configuration relies on Wi-Fi unless you add a suitable network adapter separately. Both support Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3; the router, network and local spectrum availability determine the wireless features you can use. Ethernet choice does not change the processor or storage.

Two Thunderbolt ports and one external display

Two rear Thunderbolt 4 / USB4 ports support compatible storage, docks and displays at up to 40Gb/s. The iMac supports its built-in display together with one external display up to 6K at 60Hz. Plan the ports around your actual accessories: a USB-A device, HDMI display or memory card may require a separate adapter or dock. There is also a 3.5mm headphone jack supporting high-impedance headphones. The built-in panel is not a general-purpose HDMI monitor input.

Video calls, sound and included controls

The 12MP Center Stage camera keeps you framed in supported calls and offers Desk View to show your workspace. Apple specifies 1080p video recording, rather than 4K recording from the 12MP sensor. A three-microphone array and six-speaker sound system make calls, lessons and media practical without immediately adding external audio equipment.

The standard two-port package includes Magic Keyboard without Touch ID and Magic Mouse. Both charge over USB-C. If you prefer multi-touch gestures, the Apple Magic Trackpad (USB-C) is a separate accessory. Blue, Green, Orange, Pink, Purple, Silver and Yellow finishes change the appearance, not the computer’s performance.

What is included and what to plan separately

The package includes the iMac in the selected mounting and Ethernet configuration, Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, a 143W power adapter, a 2m power cord and a USB-C charge cable. A VESA arm, external storage, USB hub and paid software subscriptions are separate. This is a mains-powered desktop with no laptop-style battery; consider an appropriate UPS if your workspace needs protection against power interruptions.

Which M4 iMac should you choose?

Choose this two-port iMac for a tidy everyday workspace with modest connection needs and one optional external screen. The four-port M4 is the more useful comparison when you need a 10-core CPU/GPU, included Touch ID and Ethernet, additional memory/storage choices or nano-texture glass. Judge the complete setup—including adapters and storage—rather than the computer price alone.
