Apart from what others already said (performance per watt) this PR fails to acknowledge that M1 also has a built-in Neural Engine cores for accelerating machine learning, which is going to become the main feature of many apps.
Indeed, M1 is unique in the respect that you get CPU, GPU and ML cores in a single chip, with incredible performance and minimal power utilization.
- LegitShady 5y agoUnique in what sense? Didn't Samsung make similar arm cpu/you/ml chips for Google's pixel 6 line?
- mynameisvlad 5y agoLaptop/desktop grade CPU/GPU/ML SoCs? No.
- wmf 5y agoIntel has GNA.
- albertopv 5y agoI understand the performance and power pros, but I don't like Apple architecture, if one of CPU, GPU or ML fails you have to replace everything, even what's still working. In fact I'm all in with Framework laptop, sadly they don't ship in Europe.
- fomine3 5y agoComputing chip itself rarely fails. Likely to fail other components like DRAM, SSD, fan, keyboard.
