@kirby ill give serious answer from what ive seen on the internet (i dont mac)
- single thread performance better than m1 macs
- less threads so lower but not bad multicore performance
- youre mainly cucked by 8gb ram only
- the macos kernel swaps really smartly so its way less bad than it would be on other oses but its still tight depending
- battery level is about what you would expect from an m1 air or something
- build quality is normal apple quality with some edges cut (physical click trackpad, no kb backlight) but in all other respects better than any windows laptop for honestly even $1k
- macos in the current state of apple software
