Touch Bar MacBook Pro 13-inch (8GB) vs Touch Bar MacBook Pro 13-inch (16GB): Memory is soldered, so choose wisely at purchase

Regarding the MacBook Pro: The 16GB model is the only viable choice for multitasking or future-proofing, since 8GB can’t be upgraded later. Both use LPDDR3 2133MHz memory soldered to the logic board, so you’re stuck with whatever you ordered.
