What keeps me away from them is more the inability to upgrade even the storage. 256 is just too small and what smartphones come with these days, and stepping up starts increasing the price real quick.

For work I have no issue with 256GB. For my personal needs, 256gb might as well be zero storage 🤣

So don’t buy the base config? Or get an external drive? Or run a home server? Or use cloud storage?

There are plenty of options out there.

And I wouldn't want to deal with an external drive for a laptop. Less extra things I have to carry and have dangling around the better.
