I am not an Apple fan at all, and after using a lot of previous generation Intel Macbook Pros at work, I found no significant gains in terms of usability over Windows laptops at all. In fact, I hated the way those Intel macs were always constantly heating up and making noise; the touchpad and keyboard were great but the heat and noise were deal-killers for me all the way. One maxed-out Macbook Pro even died from the constant overheating and CPU fan cycling. I would say Apple Silicon was the only game changer in the Macbook line, without which I wouldn't have bought one for myself at all. It provides such a pleasant experience in terms of eliminating heat/noise along with offering ridiculous battery life.
