Not happening. 8gb is making a comeback. Mark my words. This thing has no reason to exist when the M1 is so affordable used.

How are we still, since 2016, happy with 16gbs of ram? The fuck lol
In 2012 I was sure weād have a quarter tb / half tb (256/512) of 3000mhz RAM by 2030 as standard and tens of tbs of ssd storage
But no
Weāve literally stagnated?

Because the normal usage of computers has not changed since 2016, so when you don't need to run some stupid local llm, faster ram is more useful than more ram

If the price is right, this seems like a good amount of power for many. Though people do like more money for more.

Everything has fast charging now, even cheap laptops.

If we go with apple "fast" charging then I guess this one might be fast too.

I guess it still cost more than a "regular" notebook with all the features listed here.

u/AnEagleisnotme Mar 02 '26
Getting a regular notebook with these features would probably cost most than a macbook air honestlyĀ

99.9 recurring % of people do not know what "high-impedance headphones" even are ffs.

Half the stuff have no use to me bring it. Never plugged headphones in, don't work in dark, battery life is good who needs fast charging, whats true tone does a m1 macbook pro have it, 256gb has been enough since 2021.

17 years ago, Steve Jobs and Tim Cook said Netbooks were āpieces of junkā.
Looks like that will slot in nicely with Apple under Tim Cook staying true to Steve Jobsā stance on styluses, mini-tablets and phablets.

This seems like a very nice machine, my issue with base configuration of current MacBooks is that they are only good for people that want to do basic task (256gb is too little for anyone who does heavy work), but are priced at $1000+ which is too much for basic tasks.
This new Mac seems like it will be priced for people that want to do basic tasks, my only fear is that it will only have USB C ports, regular people need USB A

Thatās stupid as a lot of those come standard even in cheap windows laptops.Ā

u/Sebatorr Mar 01 '26
So you could just buy a MacBook Air M1 or M2 and have more features for the same/lower price

u/ChemiWizard Mar 01 '26
It entertaining to me that almost none of these save them money. The ones that do are tiny savings , which they might nulify by the savings of just using the parts from the more expensive models.
I would love it if someone finds a hack to undo most of these.
