One reason this feels different is the pricing bump, which I didn't think would be a big deal until I read theverge's review earlier today [0]. They spent the entire time talking about the low-end model, and entirely dismiss everything with the touch bar as "the price for those models is really quite silly right now." Given that low end model is intentionally crippled with only 2 USB-C ports it's not great that the reaction is to dismiss the rest.

For that price I expected more than 16GB of RAM or at least the option to increase it. I've heard that it may be Intel's fault but it's frustrating to be limited to the same amount of memory I have on this Mac purchased 3 years ago.
