Best 24-Inch iMac Accessories (Updated)

You may think everything you need to start using your gleaming 24-Inch iMac is in the box and the basics are there: a keyboard and a mouse. The inbuilt 6 speakers are decent enough, so you’re ready to unbox, switch on and be comfortable. However, there’s always an additional device/accessory that will make your editing easier, your desk less cluttered, your viewing angle more to the way you like it among other good ideas.

What are those 24-inch iMac accessories and are they worth an imention or should they be put in the ibin? (sorry for the terrible ipuns).

Best 24-Inch iMac Accessories will improve our experience as iMac designs don’t always reach the great heights intended. Does anyone remember the simplistic hockey puck iMac mouse of the first iMacs? It went down with tech enthusiasts  like a dead bondi, blue, (read about the first bondi blue iMac here) balloon, though as a past owner I did not share their anathema. Maybe I’m more easily pleased.

As an owner of the original 1998 iMac I can tell you my pleasure lasted 2 weeks before numerous round trips to the local Apple repair store almost caused a computer switch in my household to duller looking, cheaper to repair make. Yes I’m that old. I digress, a current grudge in the tech press is that Apple has once again failed to address the disliked location of the Lightning port on the underside, of the new iMac. In layman’s speech, the new Magic Mouse 2 becomes unusable while charging.

At least these days the magic mouse uses rechargeable batteries instead of AA batteries and then there’s a Lightning cable. In fact there’s a trifecta of good news. 1. After 2 hours charging the iMac gives you a month’s use. 2. You may call this an Apple hack but the mouse charges using a separate Apple iPhone Lightning Dock too. 3. You can buy more advanced blue tooth mouse that’s compatible with the 24-inch iMac.

The MX is very comfortable with its ergonomic design, allowing you to scroll vertically and horizontally which is a large bonus and it glides effortlessly in any direction. If you’re in a cafe and find yourself sitting at a glass table without a mat, this mouse will still work perfectly well. logitec have been producing mice (mouses) for decades so they know what they’re doing.
