garbage deal, no one should be buying 8gb non expendable in 2022.
Actually it's a great deal, because 8 gigs and the M1 is more than enough for the average person.

i'm an average user, all i have is 10-15 chrome tabs and some MS files like word and excel, and i'm pushing 9gb, and before you argue safari, i prefer chrome because it sync up with my preferences on my pc desktop, plus i had more crashes on safari than on chrome.

Bigger issue for me would be the Safari bug

Do you have an 8gb version of the M1?

I have two and they’re both very responsive with lots of tabs open.
