![]() Before updating my computer would randomly die on battery power. Monterey even solved my battery issues thanks to the addition of ‘low power mode’. ![]() It’s worth noting that I did a fresh install rather than an upgrade. It feels like Monterey is just really efficient. I have a friend with an M1 air and he commented that my laptop seems just as snappy as his. I updated my 2017 Base Model Pro (non Touch Bar, 8gb of ram, 2.3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5) to Monterey from Mojave and it runs better than ever. This doesn’t address your specific question but but based on your iMac’s specs it may help. ![]() Looking for a tales of success or words of caution, and realizing that eventually new software updates for many products I use will require an OS newer than Mojave, so there’s some future proofing (as best I can) in mind as well. There are a few plugins I use that aren’t officially supported yet, but they still seem to work, and I’m sure that official support will come eventually. Monterey (12.2.1) has really been a dream on this M1 Air so far. Ableton projects hit similar CPU meter %s on both machines, so processor should be fine (4ghz quad i7). But my iMac does have a fast internal 1TB SSD, and 32GB RAM. It works well and I never thought I’d even consider a look toward updating its OS, especially since Catalina on another machine was a bit sluggish, and Mojave has felt problem free. Especially in the various system preferences, and general setup areas, menubar, etc. It’s weird for me to say this, but I like how much parity it has to iOS. I’m actually really enjoying Monterey on my M1 Air, so I’m considering updating my iMac. This is listed as one of the oldest Macs compatible with Monterey. Anyone running Monterey on a late 2015 iMac 27" ?
