I think people are conditioned to want more than 8, and didn't trust the M1 to use 8GB as well as it does.Wow. A lot more 16GB responses than I expected.
Perhaps, or it may just be that they are trying to future-proof their purchase. I was expecting to see something like 80% opting for 8GB and 20% opting for 16GB, but the poll results show close to 50/50.I think people are conditioned to want more than 8, and didn't trust the M1 to use 8GB as well as it does.
Lol.I recomend 32gb, it is wisest choice. my m1 has 32 and is just enough and quite fast,
Which MBP do you have?Honestly my current MBP has 8GB and it does swap often. Also, one of the reason I want a new computer is for online teaching, where I now often have a video feed open next to multiple app (Teams, Word, Numbers, Safari) which make my current MBP chug a lot. I know it's not only the ram, but it's clearly a factor.
