The real reason I won’t buy one - despite wanting one really badly - is that Apple silicon is just too good. The gap between the battery life, performance and efficiency over x86 continues to widen.
FYI Intel caught up on node size. No more gap.
Only reason there was a gap is Intel fumbling to switch to a new node and apple showering tsmc with money for latest node size. There was no gap with amd all this time and battery was great on amd laptops
Intel just now recovered. Took probably 7-8 years. See panther like. But also I’m not going to waste my life providing “sources”. Google it, research it.

Node size wasn’t one of the metrics I was comparing so love to see some benchmarks to prove this gap isn’t as bad as I was aware…
