128gb of memory, it's a nice change for Apple not to lag in that department for once, wonder what such a machine will cost though.

Checking Apple's store, I can't find a cheaper configuration than $5100 for the M5 + 128GiB version.
Here in Europe, including 21% VAT, that's €6.124,00 ($7.094,35 equivalent).
Because of pricing strategies and such, the 128GiB version comes with a 2TiB SSD at minimum, and also requires the M5 Max (not Pro) at its highest configuration.
Not sure if this is new, but it should be noted that these laptops don't come with a charger any more.
In the US, power adapters are included:
Because your countries mandate no power adapter for some stupid ewaste reason.
They didn't: https://9to5mac.com/2025/10/16/no-the-eu-didnt-ban-apple-fro...
Devices should be offered without a charger. There's no law that states that that should be the default configuration. Nor that the charger should cost extra.

In US, going to 128 GB from 32 is $1500 extra. However 32 GB is only offered with the 32 core version and 128 only with the 40 core version.
They've offered 128gb of RAM since at least the M3.
At today's prices, the memory will probably cost more than the rest of the hardware combined :P
128gb was there for a while. I am kind of disappointed they do not have 256gb option.
I was really hoping to see 512gb but I guess they don't want it to cut into the sales of the Studio.
No 256 GB model, so no purchase. What a shame.
Same here. If the had 256GB option I'd pull a trigger. Now I might be looking for alternatives.
