Just fyi these don't have sufficient ram to support ipados27 on-device intelligence features. M4 air with 12gb ram is sufficient.

Even more reason to buy it. The lack of forced AI is a selling point.

Only 8GB of RAM - it's interesting when an important spec is hard to find.

Not really. Apple never really advertises memory specs on mobile devices.

Agree, and these are for on device AI features. Also note that even the M4 Pro 256 and 512GB are only 8GB RAM. I was surprised that the m4 air is all 12 GB throughout, probably because they released it later and decided more memory was required.

Maybe the m4 might get a couple of OS updates more due to having more memory. I hope they give an option to disable AI features.

Stop spreading lies bro.

It doesn't have enough ram to support two features, advanced dictation and expressive voices.

Do you honestly think they would put out an OS that can't run on IPhone 17? Seriously?

The ram on this will be fine and iOS 27 actually has a new memory allocation system to help out with limitations, so it should improve performance for older devices
