I would say that it depends. I have owned quite a few MacBook Pros over the years and have always ended up upgrading the RAM to 16g for my usage purposes. The way it sounds, these new MBP's aren't user upgradeable anymore so I went with the 16g right out of the box to try and future proof it as I tend to keep computers for about 5 years. BUT - as a real estate agent; if part of your normal "workload" on the computer is taking and retouching property photos and manipulating data to upload to your own website, bouncing back and forth between multiple emails and e-sign programs, I would say go with the 16g also. It's a bit on the pricey side but so far it's a pretty amazing little machine. And I mean LITTLE - it's seriously about half the size of the mid-2012 13 inchers with the case on. Really the only thing I miss is the security of the breakaway mag lite connector (charger) because I move around the house with the computer quite a bit and can tend to be a bit of a klutz. But the longer battery life that this new machine affords will probably render this issue obsolete.
