This update of EveryMac.com features sitewide preliminary compatibility details for macOS Monterey (macOS 12), iOS 15, iPadOS 15, tvOS 15, and watchOS 8 as well as an all new iMac M1 Q&A to completely cover the latest iMacs.

Each of these operating systems announced at WWDC last week is available now for developers, is scheduled for a public beta next month, and final consumer versions are promised this autumn. Additional details can be added as they become available.

EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Comparison, Ultimate Mac Sort, and Ultimate Mac Lookup have been updated, too.

Remember that EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Comparison makes it straightforward to perform side-by-side comparisons of Mac and device specs, benchmarks, operating system support, and more.

EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Sort, on the other hand, makes it easy to see all Macs that meet multiple specific criteria. For example, if you want to see all 13" MacBook Pro models with Core i7 processors that support macOS Monterey (macOS 12), you can do so with just a few clicks.

EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup has been updated with additional identifiers for Macs and devices from hands-on inspection and submissions by helpful readers. Thank you very much to those who contribute info. It's appreciated always.

The iMac M1 Q&A answers "What are all the differences between the '2021 M1' iMacs? Which is really best?" and "How fast are the '2021 M1' iMacs compared to each other? Are they actually faster than Intel iMacs?" and much more about Apple's colorful desktop Macs.

For those interested in saving money on a new iMac, Apple Authorized site sponsor Adorama has the new models available to order and with free shipping.
