But it is 28 watts to the M1's 10 watts
- rowanG077 6y agoTrue, in perf per watt M1 does an incredible job I'd wager. But I'm not interested in that. I simply want the highest performance in a 13 inch formfactor. Apple marketing material said the M1 would blow everything out of the water with a HUGE margin. Now it turns out it's actually slower then their own laptop would be with a refreshed intel chip. That's what dissapoints me.
- alwillis 6y agoApple's marketing material said the M1 would blow everything out of the water with a HUGE margin. Could you provide a link to the marketing material that says the M1 would blow everything out of the water with a HUGE margin? The M1 press release says "The World’s Best CPU Performance per Watt". That's true. The M1 MacBook press release says "And with M1, the 13-inch MacBook Pro is up to 3x faster than the best-selling Windows laptop in its class." The fine print: Testing conducted by Apple in October 2020 using preproduction 13-inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M1 chip, as well as production Intel Core i7-based PC systems with Intel Iris Plus Graphics and the latest version of Windows 10 available at the time of testing. Best-selling system based on publicly available sales data over the last nine months. Translation: those laptops you see at Best Buy that are in the $800–$1200 range? Yeah, we blows those things out the water. By a lot.
