rMBP 2013 SSD Size?

Doubtful.

It means less profit, and no company will willingly decrease profits.

 

You can always BTO more SSD size (up to 756GB on some models). its the RAM you are stuck with.

Dunno if the base spec will be upgraded. If so there probably would be a price increase (or no discount). Small storage can be a marketing thing, offer a "low" price on the base model an count on everyone will wanting more SSD to provide the profit margin.

 

Agreed. SSD's have come down in price but are still expensive. In order to meet introductory price points we are at least a generation away from 256GB SSD's being entry level.

 

Well, you can always BTO up to 16GB RAM as well.

SSD prices have been coming down pretty rapidly, so I would hope that before long, Apple would start passing that along to their customers. However, looking at how static the pricing has been on flash upgrades for iPhones and iPads, that may be wishful thinking on my part. How long has it been now that Apple has been charging $100 for the bump from 16GB to 32GB of flash? We can now buy 16GB of equivalent performance flash packaged in an SD card for $10 to $20 retail.

 

I guess he meant the 13 inch rMBP since 128gb SSD is not available on the 15 inch model....

 

maybe it will make more people buy it due to the fact that they can upgrade ^^

 

That didn't come out the way I wanted it.... never mind.

 

do you think apple will increase the 256gb standard ssd on the 15 inch ?

 

Not on the 13".
