16GB or 32GB of ram (MacBook Pro 2020)

There it is! Wauw this computer feels a lot different than the 2018. You can notice that it is a little thicker, and this keyboard feel just right. It is a weird experience, in a good way!

Installing everything now, and might as well download all original photo’s due the 1TB storage which is overkill.

Turbo boost switcher Pro is turned on, let’s see how much battery i can squeeze out of this beauty!

thanks all for your reco

Nice!

Is that space grey? I'm typing on my silver 16" right now and it matches perfectly. Must be the lighting

Hey there,

I allocated 8GB of Ram to Parallels and I am honestly afraid to give it more than that.
The laptop is super fast though, no slowdowns and the battery life is amazing.

I'd suggest giving Parallels 4 or 6GB of RAM. That may help the page swapping, without seeing a reduction in performance of Windows.

Hello. I wanted to enquire: I currently run Illustrator/Photoshop on a Windows 10 with 8GB of RAM and it is perfect for my needs. Is the RAM performance of Windows = MacBook, i.e. will a Macbook give me the same performance for the same designs I made on Windows?

Ordered a 16GB MBP M1, just couldn't go with 8GB even if it is unified memory.

I know MS Office runs better on Windows with less RAM and a slower CPU.

no. max it up 16 gb if m1 laptop. 8 gb in windows is not enough either if you open browser high memory like chrome. The best of my usage this day 10 to 12 gb.
