I wonder how much of this and other thermal issues with MacBooks are just a marketing stunt to better sell m1 devices.
Not that m1 needs that kind of marketing, Apple yet again set the standard for best laptop on the market, possibly for another decade, but I can totally see these anti-intel subversions being discussed somewhere deep in the catacombs of the mothership.
- rdsubhas 5y agoAre you implying that they built in artificial stunt thermal issues in those 4 year old laptops, so that they can use that as marketing to sell more m1 devices 4 years in the future?
- keymone 5y agoYes. It’s one of the main selling point of m1 - being faster than intel and colder than intel. M1 is just a continuation of their A line which exists for a decade, so it’s not like it was a stab in the dark.
