That’s all I was doing with the original post I feel a company with Apples’ stature should sincerely reflect upon giving the customers the ultimate experience vs. They’d still make huge amounts of profits, just somewhat less than they do now.Įveryone knows the alternatives when they’re buying an apple product – doesn’t mean we as customers can’t try to show apple or at least express our opinions when Apple is in the wrong. Doing it this way may be the only way to make the absurd kind of profits that they do, but in no means would they make a loss if they did otherwise – offer customers some freedom. ‘Doing it this way is the only way Apple can remain profitable while other companies struggle’. But you may have a different opinion.īut hey, calling my comment silly. I personally don’t think its ok, which is why I’m still on my 2012 macbook pro, where they didn’t solder the RAM on to the main board. Whether you think thats okay or not is a matter of opinion. I never said Ive or Cook are, as you put it, ‘maniacally laughing about their ultimate power’ – but you’d be hard pressed to argue that they’re doing everything they can, at leas with the laptops, to make sure the customers can change as little as possible themselves once they’ve bought the laptop. Maybe ask apple to do it, but as we all know apple and its absurd prices aren’t the best option always. In the macbook pros, however, once you’ve gotten your laptop, you cannot upgrade the RAM yourself. I’m not very knowledgeable about the iMacs, since I don’t own one.
You may be right about the changeable slots in the iMac (btw I assume with memory you mean RAM). Sadly the new 4K 21.5-inch iMac uses soldered RAM, so unless you’re extremely handy with a soldering-iron, you’re stuck with 8GB or 16GB, depending on the spec you buy. Laughably, the upgrade option means that your brand new iMac could actually end up with more than twice as much RAM as it has flash storage. But if the price doesn’t put you off, check out our how-to guide to see just how easy it is to do.
It won’t, however, be cheap: the 48GB kit will cost $729, while the maximum 64GB will cost a cool $1195. And while Apple limits you to a maximum of 32GB, OWC (just like in years past) has just announced that it will shortly offer upgrade kits for 48GB and 64GB RAM …Īdding RAM is usually one of the best ways to boost the real-life performance of a Mac, though you’d probably need to be doing some pretty heavy-duty work to take advantage of 64GB. But the new 27-inch iMac still uses plug-in RAM, so you’re free to add your own RAM after purchase. With most Macs these days, soldered memory chips mean that whatever RAM you want, you have to buy it from Apple when you order the machine.
