but then again, if you’re someone who does this a lot, you might not want to buy one an M1 Mac right now.The mid-range and high-end models that will undoubtedly offer more RAM options and more processor power are undoubtedly coming next year.īut if you combine the efficiency of the unified memory architecture with the speed of SSD storage, and consider most everyday use cases, I’m pretty sure that most regular users could get by with 8GB of unified memory-or, if you want to be absolutely sure, upgrade that to 16GB. If you’re someone who does this a lot, you probably want more memory. What would cause your Mac to run out of physical memory? If you leave an awful lot of apps open at once, or if your browser has hundreds of tabs open, or if you’re using an app that loads a very large file (like, say, a Photoshop file) into memory. Yes, when a Mac runs out of physical memory, it will page the contents of memory to disk-and even super-fast SSDs are slower than main memory! Though the speed differences are a lot less than back when we used slow spinning disk drives. Sure, a lot of people feel they need it-but do they, really?
I'm fully hooked into iPhone though, I've told myself I can quit whenever I want and go back to android but like you say, they "just work"īut it’s also worth considering just how squishy the need for more memory can be when you poke at it. I know what you mean, I just feel lie i'm too old to learn a new OS Just wanted to balance up the opinions here but I'd rather pay a little (or a lot) more for something I know is a work of art (sorry couldn't help myself!).
I can see it from other people's perspectives, they are expensive compared to other brands and what they can do is comparable etc. The build quality and reliability is IMO second to none, plus the technical and customer support from Apple (but you would expect that given the price of their products). I used to buy Windows laptops but seemed to have no end of problems with them, at best they seemed to last a couple of years, I had a couple of Acer's, a Dell & a Toshiba, eventually I decided to take the hit and get a MacBook, I've never looked back since. I've just purchased the new MacBook Air with the M1 processor, it's replacing an older MacBook Pro (2016) which in turn was a replacement for an even older MacBook Pro (2012 - which I'm still using to this day to WFH).
