Apple’s iPhone lineup is selling well, but the Mac is in a serious rough patch
www.theverge.com
Mac revenue was down 34 percent year over year.

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
