  Apple picks and chooses what it wants to showcase, but their marketing is reasonably honest in the details. The problem comes from misinterpretation of what they are showcasing, "30 times faster performance in some Photoshop filter," doesn't say anything about whether the machine is faster overall at everything than some bizarre whitebox someone built that is missing expensive Mac features. But, in general, at release, more often than not Macs have been the fastest performing machine at that moment, though within a few months they're no longer faster than such and such PC, and Macs have a long wait between in-model releases. There were 4 years between the 2014 Mac mini and 2018 model, and 6 years between the 2013 Mac Pro and the 2019 Mac Pro. That's a lot of time for the competition.
