    Lack of Ram comments incoming, 5, 4, 3, 2……..

      fwiw, Ive been using my base model 16" M1 macbook pro for about 3 years now. It has the 16/512 spec and its been the best machine ive ever owned.

      16GB RAM has never been a limitation.

        I love my 8/256 M2, runs VM's like a dream, even with multiple tabs open

      Thank you Apple Intelligence for standardising minimum 16gb ram

    • +2

      Even if you’re drinking the apple kool-aid, the conventional wisdom for those more familiar with x86 systems than arm is that 16gb is the minimum you can get away with in 2024. It’s just poor marketing when ram is so cheap at low sizes to not include at least that much.

    • This has finally been addressed! Thanks to needing more to support Apple Intelligence all new Macs get a minimum of 16GB :)

  • First post so please go easy on me :)

    16GB RAM, can't even open 2 chrome tabs

    • Watching dirty chicken porn?

        Shhh thats @jv's secret

      • I hope that means kfc advertisements

    • For this price I can build a gaming pc that can play crysis, mine bitcoin, watch Bonnie Blue and have 10 NRL matches playing at the same time!

      • Never played, got all I need, don't not what that is, and ick. Can it do anything else?

    Also Macbook Pro 14" (M4 Pro) 12/16 Core CPU/GPU 24/512GB Black is $2967 i guess that 10% off too

    just realised Some of the Macbook pro M4's @ officeworks have a 10% discount.

  • Are these better than base 14” M2 Pros?

    • Single core performance yes, multi-core roughly the same, graphics no (Though the difference isn't huge).

    Worth upgrading from M2 air?

    • +2

      Not if you don’t need the extra power

    • Not really worth upgrading any m series. M4 really targeted intel and possibly m1/m2 but I couldn’t find any difference between m2 pro 16 and m4 pro

    • What issues are you facing?

  • isnt' this the retail price for the m4 models?

  • +6

    too much RAM

    • +1

      Sadly you can't download less RAM - you could create a 8GB ram disk to keep things in check.

  • Hey, I'm new to mac - I have a Macbook Air M3 8/10 24/512 on order and the price is very similar to this - would I be better off going with this as opposed to the air?

    I don't do a heap of major editing or anything. Mainly some light coding and photoshop, maybe a game here or there.

    • +1

      It's going to be almost no difference. The M4 is slightly faster, but you have slightly more ram on your M3, so depends on your workload. There might be a slight benefit with the M4 in Photoshop/compiling, but it's honestly going to be fairly small.

      You’ll be fine with the air. Only time I’ve had the fans turn on with my M1 MBP has been when playing WOW for extended periods or batch exporting photos in Lightroom. Rest of the time the cpu is barely taxed.

      Main differences are the mini LED screen, more ports plus sd card and active cooling but you pay for it in price, size and weight mainly. My wife’s M3 MacBook Air can just squeeze into my PGYTech camera sling where my MBP is just slightly too chonk

    • I’d get the MacBook Pro. The screen and performance bump on sustained loads due to fan (batch photo exports, gaming) outweighs the extra 8gb ram you get on the air.

  • Apple users are THE MOST resale value conscious consumers I have ever witnessed. They will upgrade due to resale value VS needing the upgrade.

    • Kinda crazy, personally I just use a laptop until the wheels fall off so to speak

    • There's a mix - a lot of the Apple users I know buy new and only upgrade when absolutely necessary or buy refurbs.

      Any comments on Samsung users upgrading due to trade in value? I did this - got rid of my perfectly good S20FE with no issues due to trade in deals and coupons.

      • Second hand Samsung's are insanely good value - you can get nearly $900 off the price of an S24 Ultra if buying refurbished - so I'd say not.

        • Interesting - any recommendations for retailers?

          • @ihfree: I got mine from Phonebot around a month ago for $1269. Using it to type this right now - it felt like brand new.

            • @DiggyWombat: Thanks will have a look. Got a second s20fe that is in need of an upgrade soon.

  • I wish retailers sold the nano texture option.

  • This is essentially the regular price through the education store in case anyone has discounted apply GC to use

    • Discounted GC, flybuys 10x points, One pass 5x points !!

      • Sorry is that through this store, or the edu store?
