In this section of the "Here's the Thing about the M3 Macbook Air..." video, the speaker discusses Apple's pricing for upgraded specs on the new Macbook Air with M3 chip. He criticizes Apple for charging high prices for even the most basic upgrades, making the base price feel misleading. The speaker emphasizes that Apple Silicon computers cannot be upgraded, making it crucial to invest in higher specs for future proofing. The speaker questions whether the base spec of the M3 Macbook Air, which comes with 8GB shared RAM and 256GB storage, is sufficient for normal computing tasks. He suggests that for some users, especially those with less demanding requirements or buying from retail stores, the base spec may be adequate and they could save money by opting for an M2 Macbook Air or older M1 models. However, for users requiring more intensive computing tasks like media encoding, exporting, or gaming, the M3 Macbook Air is recommended due to its enhanced capabilities.
