Mac sales are down.
I’m really not surprised. They are just a bit too expensive once you start upgrading the storage and ram.
I have been holding out on buying a Mac since the M2 was rumored to come out.
I keep hoping that the base model will have a larger amount of storage and ram, but it does not.
They keep selling faster processors, but I do not need that, I need more storage and I’d like more ram.
At this point, I’m just going to buy a used M1 air. If Apple had 512 and 26 standard on the base air, I’d pickup a new one today.
Do you disagree? What can Apple do to increase Mac sales?
People always tell me how affordable the Mac mini is when I complain about Apples’ pricing. Huh?
719€ for a computer that has 8GB of memory? Shared between cpu and gpu? In 2023?
Excuse me?
That’s also just a waste of good wafers for how capaple Apple silicon is.
Nice, I paid less than 300€ for a new PC with 16GB shared memory about a month or two ago. This was with a 512 GB SSD, Ryzen 5700U system so not exactly garbage
That’s a fantastic deal you got there
Not even a deal IME
Apple could win over a lot more people by simply making user expandable systems.
also cutting their price in at least half.
i can get better hardware than their “amaazing” chips for half the price where i live.
