running the benchmark-busting Apple Silicon M1 chipset is available, it’s hard to recommend it when Apple has better options now and in the future.... [+]First up, and perhaps most obviously, if you want a MacBook Pro, then.
Once you strip out the performance options you end up with a head to head of the entry-level MacBook Pro and the MacBook Air variants, at which point the price difference between the two machines comes into stark contrast. What exactly are you getting for the extra $300? An extra GPU core and the dead-end user interface that was the Touch Bar; is that enough?
If you need an all-round laptop, that’s more than good enough in each area, then Apple has designed that. It’s the MacBook Air. The extra power of the M1 chipset compared to the previous generations unlocks the potential of the Apple Silicon MacBook Air more than any other Air made. All that said and done, if you are in that very narrow window of needing a bit more power but nothing excessive over the MacBook Air, if you need just a shade more performance from your GPU cores, and if your can’t invest in the $2000 entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro, then consider this.
