For a while now Apple's entry-level Macs have had just 8GB of RAM unless the buyer chooses to upgrade that at the point of purchase. The same goes for the latest M3 iMac and M3 MacBook Pro, too. And that's once again raised the question of whether or not it's time Apple moved on, giving buyers at least 16GB of RAM.
That's especially the case when you look at Apple's Pro machines, with the M3 14-inch MacBook Pro shipping with just 8GB as mentioned. While you could easily argue that 8GB is enough in the iMac, some would say that anything with the word Pro in the name should come with more. And it would be hard to argue.
