Unlike AMD and Qualcomm, Apple uses an expensive TSMC 3nm process, so you would expect better battery life from the "MBP3". I assume they used the process improvements to increase performance instead.
- hajile 2y agoPerf per watt is higher for M1 on N5 vs Zen5 on N4P, so the problems go deeper than just process. X Elite also beats AMD/Intel in perf/watt while being on the same N4P node as HX370. https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Zen-5-Strix-Point-CPU-analysis-Ryzen-AI-9-HX-370-versus-Intel-Core-Ultra-Apple-M3-and-Qualcomm-Snapdragon-X-Elite.868641.0.html https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Zen-5-Strix-Point-CPU-anal...
- cubefox 2y agoPerformance per watt also depends on clock speed. Other things equal, higher clock speed means worse performance per watt.
