Because battery life.


So it's not the speed like the title says? Lol


It’s obvious that those are related, isn’t it? I want to have a powerful laptop which I can carry around all day. Yet latest Intel ultrabooks either throttle or get hot and loud. So much energy just get wasted on generating heat, that’s why passively cooled m1 looks like a wonder.


It’s the subtext isn’t it. Apple went on and on about performance PER WATT. They could crank up the power and shorten the battery life any time they like.
