Refurbished Apple iMac 27" 2015 5K

About this imac

The refurbished Apple iMac 27-inch from 2015 brings together a large Retina 5K display with Intel processing power in Apple's signature all-in-one desktop design. Whether you're running multiple browser tabs, editing photos or managing spreadsheets, the combination of a 27-inch screen and either an Intel Core i5-6500 or Core i7-4790K processor handles everyday computing tasks with room to spare. All units are professionally refurbished, tested and graded, then backed by a 12-month Buyer Area warranty and 30-day returns.

Inside, you'll find a choice of Intel quad-core processors paired with either 8GB or 32GB of RAM, making this used iMac adaptable to light office work or more demanding creative software. Storage configurations vary across the units in stock: a 1TB hard drive offers traditional capacity, a 512GB SSD delivers faster boot and load times, and the 500GB Fusion Drive sits between the two with a hybrid approach. The 27-inch display remains the centrepiece, giving you plenty of screen space for side-by-side documents, photo libraries or video calls without the clutter of a separate monitor and tower. Each unit runs macOS Ventura, keeping you current with modern app compatibility and security updates.

Performance for everyday tasks and creative work

The Intel Core i5-6500 configuration balances power and efficiency for web browsing, email, cloud-based productivity suites and video streaming. Step up to the Core i7-4790K variant with 32GB of RAM and you gain headroom for photo editing in Lightroom, working with larger spreadsheets, or running several applications simultaneously without slowdown. Both processors are quad-core, so even demanding software benefits from the extra threads. Storage speed makes a real difference to daily use: the 512GB SSD option boots macOS in seconds and opens apps instantly, while the 1TB hard drive prioritises capacity for large media libraries at a steadier pace.

Display, connectivity and the all-in-one advantage

The 27-inch screen eliminates cable sprawl and frees up desk space compared to a separate monitor and PC tower. You sit down to a clean workspace with the keyboard and mouse of your choice—both connect easily via Bluetooth or USB. This second hand iMac's built-in design also means fewer plugs and less dust gathering behind multiple boxes. Ports and wireless connectivity details are listed in the specifications table below, so you can confirm compatibility with your existing peripherals and network before you buy.

Which configuration to choose

If your workflow centres on web apps, email and light document editing, the Intel Core i5-6500 with 8GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive will serve you well. For faster app launches and a snappier feel, look for the 512GB SSD option—you'll notice the difference every time you boot up or open a large file. Creative professionals and power users will appreciate the Core i7-4790K paired with 32GB of RAM, which keeps performance smooth when you're juggling multiple browser tabs, editing high-resolution images or compiling code. The 500GB Fusion Drive offers a middle ground, combining SSD speed for your operating system and frequently used files with hard-drive capacity for everything else.

Who this refurbished Apple iMac suits

This 2015 model remains a practical choice for home offices, small businesses and students who want a large screen and the simplicity of an all-in-one desktop. The 27-inch display makes research and writing easier by showing two documents side by side, while the macOS Ventura operating system keeps you connected to iCloud, the latest Safari browser and a wide range of productivity apps. Because every unit has been tested and graded before dispatch, you know exactly what condition to expect—Grade C units show more visible signs of previous use, while Grade B examples are closer to original condition. Both grades carry the same 12-month warranty and 30-day returns, so your purchase is protected either way.
