Soldered in, or upgradeable at least? The former would be a huge reason to never buy the newest gen of laptops.
EDIT: Missed in article, yeah this would suck if they stick to soldered RAM for ultra-thins.
Those soldered low RAM ones are going to be in the dump a lot sooner.
They do not care about the planned obsolescence of it all.
Easier to justify making trash.
lmao of course it's gonna be soldered in to push you to higher tiers
Probably single channel too because of course
