How’s the MacBook doing for you? I’m really wanting to switch to an arm chip.
I’m trying to hold out till the next generation of windows on arm hoping for something closer to the m-series performance wise. The battery gains are just so good.
What is your use case? If it’s dev or data science work I can at least give my feedback. Early on kind of awful - competing packages , incompatibility between tools assuming arm and others that had to be emulated. I can go on if it helps - it’s much better now but the occasional pain point.
Honestly just something for day to day at home for personal use. Mostly in the browser, the apps that I did want are already compiled for arm thankfully.
I appreciate the feedback! I’m more so curious about speed in native apps in comparison. As well as battery life from a real user. I have a surface pro 6 i5 right now that’s getting slow.
Really freaking great. I get awesome battery life on arm MacBook compared to an intell one I still need to use. I feel like it’s about double when I compare my workloads between the two. Wish I had something more scientific to offer - but for what I do - much longer battery life and a much much much cooler and quieter laptop. I had to use my i7 for something the other day and forgot how freaking noisy the thing was.
