If you don't need Catalina specifically, I suggest only upgrading to Mojave. Catalina is very buggy and has lots of issues due to dropping 32-bit app support.
Also, you really need an SSD to have decent performance for recent macOS.

Upgrade lor. 4GB is too low nowadays Even soldered RAM also can upgrade if you know where to look

Newer MBP can use cheaper NVME with an adaptor. My 2012 MBP using M.2 SATA with an adaptor. Recently bought some 256GB Intel SSD for RM 100. Will opt for larger capacity if below RM 200.
That's why I said "if you know where to look" The are certain people/shops that offer such services
It involves desoldering the old RAM and soldering the new RAMs
PS: Not gonna be cheap though
This looks scary. Later cannot turn on balik. Not cheap is another keyword. Lol

Everything also upgradable. It all depends if u wanna spend money or not. SSD is simple and cheap to upgrade for MBA. Only RAM will be expensive. Better max out to 16GB if u going to spend more than RM 400. Alternatively, sell the laptop away and look for another used MBA.
