For $20 more, seems like a no brainer. Am I missing anything? Thanks.
I plan on buying base 14 inch.
 
Bought the base and clicked through so fast that I misread and didn’t upgrade to the 96w. Wondering the same thing as OP…

Obviously not worth cancelling my preorder for, but I’m annoyed with myself for doing that.

I am pretty sure you can only take advantage of fast charging with the 10-core or higher (not the base 8-core). Also the 96W is fair amount larger, for what it’s worth.

Only the 96W can do fast charging… but it’s supposed to be bigger and less portable…

I actually changed my order because the 96W charger accelerated delivery by a week…:)
But I am wondering as well if there are any downsides to the 96W charger…
I am a little afraid that the battery might not like it very much…
