I recently bought the m2 mba 8gb for graphic design. I dont really think it was a good idea aand might cancel it. Any thoughts?

16GB is barely* usable for Lightroom and Photoshop for me.

I wouldn't touch any 8GB MacOS product if I was planning on doing any actual work on it.

 

*I'm exaggerating a little bit. But if I'm paying over $2000 for a laptop, it better perform better than my $1000 desktop. With 16gb RAM, it does not.

Check out Apple Certified Refurbished and/or Student Offers (if applicable). Certified is ~15% off I believe, while being indistinguishable from new.

16 GB by a long shot. Don't let the fanboys tell you that 8 GB of RAM on a machine costing $1000+ is fine. It is not.
