Frankly, these are fine for my purpose but note that the standard SATA connections on the motherboard of the Mac Pro would make getting a larger SSD an easy upgrade. However Apple runs the M1 continuously.The system came with a 160 GB SSD drive and a SATA 640 GB HDD. The main difference is that MS includes in-app idle time, and standby time, which obviously reduce power draw.

РІР‚СљMacBook Pro with Apple M1 chip: Testing conducted by Apple in October 2020 using preproduction 13-inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M1 chip, 8GB of RAM, and 512GB SSD. Battery life varies significantly with settings, usage and other factors.' All settings were default except screen brightness was set to 150nits with Auto-Brightness disabled. The active use portion consists of (1) a web browsing test accessing 8 popular websites over multiple open tabs, (2) a productivity test utilizing Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Outlook, and (3) a portion of time with the device in use with idle applications.

'Testing consisted of full battery dischargeР’В with a mixture of active use and modern standby. HereРІР‚в„ўs MicrosoftРІР‚в„ўs battery test, in their own words: I wonder if there's much variation in battery capacity. Seems weird that the MacBook's doesn't fare better in battery life than the others. For example, MediaTek Arm CPUs and NVIDIA GPUs will be in laptops together: NUVIA Phoenix performance (take with a grain of salt):Р”Р„dditionally, other companies will be using Arm configurations for PCs too, giving Microsoft more options. If their design is anything to be believed, it's likely they'll be quite competitive with Apple right out of the gate. For example, Qualcomm will be releasing their first NUVIA based SoC for laptops in late 2022. Microsoft's future Surface devices will likely include new Arm chips as well.

The M1 is an outstanding chip, but if it's forced to run software through Rosetta and potentially give up its performance advantage, or simply not run the software at all, then it's obviously a poor choice for someone who needs to run applications in the x86 Windows environment.Р”Р„ couple other things to note, the battery claims from Microsoft might not be the best to go by (real world is usually lower), as well, the SSD on the Surface Laptop 4 can be swapped out for a larger one. Apple's offering is minus the use of Windows 10, of course - at least for now.Р”Р„t the end of the day, it always comes down to use case. Apple's offerings are smaller, offer a higher display resolution, and crucially provide more performance through the use of Apple Silicon. Microsoft's problems start when you compare it against Apple's M1-based notebooks.

It has its quirks, such as the display and the port options, but it will probably serve anyone who wants to use Windows perfectly fine. Looking at what Microsoft presented on Tuesday, the Surface Laptop 4 is certainly an adequate Windows notebook from the Windows developer for anyone who wants one. 6-core AMD Ryzen Microsoft Surface EditionР”РЃ-core AMD Ryzen Microsoft Surface Edition
