What is RAM?
RAM (Random Access Memory) is different to the permanent storage provided by hard disk drives (HDD), solid state drives (SSD) or memory cards in your equipment. RAM is used by your device to temporarily store data to carry out everyday operations. The more RAM your machine has, the faster you can expect it to open and run programs.
This device has 8GB RAM.
Magic Keyboard
Created to provide a comfortable and stable key feel, Apple’s Magic Keyboard features a redesigned scissor mechanism with 1mm of key travel. The updated, inverted arrow keys are now easier to find, no matter if you’re gaming or updating spread sheets.
Touch ID
A dedicated Touch ID button lets you unlock your MacBook Pro with a single touch of a finger or access things like secure documents or system settings without having to re-enter your password. It also allows you to use Apple Pay to make secure online payments without too much hassle.
Simple Touch
The Touch Bar replaces the function keys that once occupied the top of the keyboard. It changes automatically based on what you’re doing to show you relevant tools you already know how to use, such as system controls like volume and brightness, interactive ways to adjust or browse through content, intelligent typing features like emoji and predictive text and more.
Solid State Drive
The Solid State Drive (SSD) in this computer gives you capacity to store your documents and media, while ensuring speedy and dependable access to your files and programs. SSDs are much faster than regular hard drives and don't use moving parts to work, making them more reliable and quieter.

Connecting your other devices
The Thunderbolt / USB 4 ports allow for fast data transfer, as well as the option for dual screen working, whilst Bluetooth can help your send data wirelessly between devices.
