M2 with 16GB is better.

8GB of RAM, no matter how much Apple likes to say otherwise, is not the equivalent of 16GB on PC and 8GB is barely enough to run a web browser + a random program.

8GB is the bare minimum you want for casual use. You need/want more for photo and video editing.

That price makes no sense…. I have a 16 gb 1 TB MacBook Air and it cost like 1799

It's Australian lol. Office works from the looks of it.
