For me at least the longevity is already far better than the Intel MacBooks Pro. I bought the 2017 and 2019 models and for my use those felt obsolete from day 1

For me at least the longevity is already far better than the Intel MacBooks Pro. I bought the 2017 and 2019 models and for my use those felt obsolete from day 1, with 2 hour battery life and permanent full-speed fans and CPU throttling. I have a M1 Pro since release day and I don't see myself wanting to replace this until probably the M5 is out.
