Although the 21.5-inch iMac technically hasn't seen a hardware update since 2019, Apple does now ship these models with an SSD. This change was made alongside the refresh seen to the 27-inch models in August 2020.

There are a few discounts on 27-inch models, but they aren't quite lowest-ever prices. The 27-inch iMac with 3.1GHz 6-Core, 8GB RAM, and 256GB SSD is $1,689.99, down from $1,799.00. Additionally, the 27-inch iMac with 3.3GHz 6-Core, 8GB RAM, and 512GB SSD is $1,876.93, down from $1,999.00.
