Don't let anyone lie to you and claim 8GB is enough for professionals. (youtu.be)

This video is silly. Showing that an 8gb machine is slower or not usable for blender or light room is both obvious and besides the point. The people buying the 8 gigabyte version not running those apps anyhow. Do a few tests just running a browser and basic office apps. That's the audience for this model.

But that can be done with the MacBook Air line or a refurbished M1 MacBook Pro 14-inch at lower costs. The latter comes with 16GB of RAM as the base model.
