For me a 512GB SSD was the biggest Apple mistake I ever made.

Yeah, with 48GB this is a really unfortunate pairing for an otherwise great device.

most of my storage is in the cloud, even my dbs on local development are on AWS so i don't have a need for a lot of storage space

512 could be enough for dev. Not so much for some like video editor.

if you do any AI development and want to run a large model locally, you need the space to store it. or, if you do any kind of video editing, then you will fill up 512 gb very quickly.

Just running XCode with a few platform files, Creative Suite and a few other apps and my 1TB model always seems out of space. I have external SSDs for data, photos, video, etc and a huge NAS, but just day to day it feels like 2TB is minimum size when you factor in swap/scratch space.

$2500 for only 512gb in 2026 is ridiculous despite everyone making excuses for Apple's pure greed.

Apple is one of the most profitable companies on the planet for a reason folks. They're making hundreds of billions of dollars of net profits every year.

Using that logic you wouldn't need this laptop at all. You can just use cloud compute

thats what im saying, what used to be local is now cloud which reduces the need for huge amounts of internal storage
