However, entry-level MacBooks face issues with limited 8GB RAM.

Apple argues that 8GB RAM is efficient and on par with 16GB in other systems.

Memory efficiency in M3 MacBook is an area of focus for Apple.

It is possible that Apple will launch its M4 Macs starting at 16GB or 32GB models.

Mac mini, iMac and MacBook Pro may go without 8GB RAM altogether.

Often, demanding features of AI on upcoming Apple Intelligence platform require more RAM.

Potential unchanged pricing for higher RAM could benefit customers.
