128gb of memory, it's a nice change for Apple not to lag in that department for once, wonder what such a machine will cost though.

128gb of memory, it's a nice change for Apple not to lag in that department for once, wonder what such a machine will cost though.
- Sharlin 8mo agoAt today's prices, the memory will probably cost more than the rest of the hardware combined :P
- Detrytus 8mo ago128gb was there for a while. I am kind of disappointed they do not have 256gb option.
- varispeed 8mo agoSame here. If the had 256GB option I'd pull a trigger. Now I might be looking for alternatives.

- ajdude 8mo agoI was really hoping to see 512gb but I guess they don't want it to cut into the sales of the Studio.
- vardump 8mo agoNo 256 GB model, so no purchase. What a shame.
- jeroenhd 8mo agoChecking Apple's store, I can't find a cheaper configuration than $5100 for the M5 + 128GiB version. Here in Europe, including 21% VAT, that's €6.124,00 ($7.094,35 equivalent). Because of pricing strategies and such, the 128GiB version comes with a 2TiB SSD at minimum, and also requires the M5 Max (not Pro) at its highest configuration. Not sure if this is new, but it should be noted that these laptops don't come with a charger any more.
- alwillis 8mo agoIn the US, power adapters are included: 70W USB-C Power Adapter (included with M5 Pro with 16-core GPU) 96W USB-C Power Adapter (included with M5 Pro with 20-core GPU, configurable with M5 Pro with 16-core GPU) USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable (2 m)
- adastra22 8mo agoBecause your countries mandate no power adapter for some stupid ewaste reason.
- jeroenhd 8mo agoThey didn't: https://9to5mac.com/2025/10/16/no-the-eu-didnt-ban-apple-from-including-a-charger-with-the-m5-macbook-pro/ https://9to5mac.com/2025/10/16/no-the-eu-didnt-ban-apple-fro... Devices should be offered without a charger. There's no law that states that that should be the default configuration. Nor that the charger should cost extra.
- pvtmert 8mo agoI know EU didn't ban chargers, but the common American sentiment somehow molded into that. It is interesting to see how mass-propaganda is playing out right before our eyes...
- NetMageSCW 7mo agoThe law that says a SKU without a charger must be offered means all devices will be sold without a charger and you can buy a separate charger if you need one. Why should anyone give you a free charger?
- snowchaser 8mo agoIn US, going to 128 GB from 32 is $1500 extra. However 32 GB is only offered with the 32 core version and 128 only with the 40 core version.
- joshstrange 8mo agoThey've offered 128gb of RAM since at least the M3.
