But can it pull off the most impressive feat of all. Shipping with 16GB RAM standard.

Be careful what you wish for because they’ll probably just charge the extra $200 while killing off the 8gb option, which won’t actually help anyone and just remove a cheaper option.

My parents are perfect examples of it. The only app they use is safari, and have like 5-10 tabs at most. And I imagine most users who are not here on reddit are like that. 8gb is just fine for them.

Yes, 8 GB is actually fine for casual users. However, 8 GB at $1600 is just price gouging.

I bet apple has statistics on how many users experience high memory pressure and what they are seeing is telling them 8gb is fine
