I never dreamed they could turn this around like they did. Apparently they were doing something behind the scenes instead of just milking the current tech.
they have always stayed ahead in the performance criteria, starting from the iPhones. it's just that they have their own way of doing things unlike the rest of the competition.
They never milked current tech. They’ve always been ahead of the curve but generally PC enthusiasts never understood the appeal because these machines were never targeted towards that market and those people.

it has been 6 months but one thing i will say is the multi core comparison was very weird as a ryzen 4800u, which is available at the $1k price in good windows laptops, has faster multi-core than that.

I just moved away from Apple as the lack of expandability is annoying and the OS sucks. I stuck with it for about 11 years as Microsoft were going through a bad patch. But Windows is more responsive, Explorer is better than Finder which even Mac users say is a load of rubbish. There was literally nothing I liked about the experience any more. I now have to use OSX for my job and in a corporate setting it sucks even more there as well, the company has loads of add-on pieces of software to get it to work well in a commercial setting. To use a network account and have it sync with OSX etc.. Nothing can make me go back to Apple, not even greater performance (which will be short lived, the competition will heat up).
Yeah, me to. I'm just waiting for native Linux, cause I finally moved away from one proprietary mess so don't want to get into another - even more walled-gardened one!
Just a suggestion but could you guys make the graphs and tables interactive when Linus is talking about one CPU or whatever? I have a hard time following which one he is referencing when going over all the scores since what he says doesn’t actually match the graph/axis label. Like if he mentions CPU B is better than A for a particular test then the bars for CPU B changes color or has a glowing effect so we can follow along better while the graphs are read and explained. Thanks. Thanks for the likes and support guys. I’m glad I’m not alone.
Even just a little arrow would be a HUGE improvement. These graphs fly by so quick it's a significant cognitive load to simultaneously read the title/test, the scores, the products, and also listen to the information dense audio ... all in a few seconds.
@@KrishnaAdettiwar they really weren't back in Intel days. For a whole lot more you got no useful i/o, no expandable storage or ram and awful thermal performance. Apart from the i/o which is what stops me going to macbooks they've addressed all that and for that reason they're now good value
@@francoismurrell4604 I mean it depends on who they're targeting. It was a good value for people in the Apple ecosystem because it was a fast, reliable machine with the benefits of macOS that a lot of content creators, engineers, and artists use and love. Final Cut Pro performance on the MacBook Pro was often nearly twice as fast as desktop PCs with twice the hardware specs on paper even back then. Also as someone who works for a large tech firm, nearly all engineers prefer to develop on macOS (go into any Amazon, Google, Apple office) and they find more value from MacBooks over the competing PCs because the tools are better and they are far more reliable. Also, IBM found that the cost of managing MacBooks vs. windows laptops internally was about 75% less overall considering IT and maintenance costs. so yeah, it was a really good value for a lot of people and a lot of companies. but perhaps, not for you if you don't need those things.
@@KrishnaAdettiwar I understand the development side of things, for average users purely from a thermal and computational performance perspective along with nearly all specs windows machines were superior in all ways except software integration and build quality which aren't super limiting for office work.

Dont be fooled by the performance. Software support, expandability and compatability is ABYSMAL. You also get locked into the Apple ecosystem and will have to dish out more and more money for every issue you face
@@TheWorldEnd2 Not sure what you’re talking about. It’s been surprisingly zippy for me, and I personally haven’t encountered any Rosetta incompatibilities (although I’m sure there are some; I don’t think AVX is supported). It’s markedly faster for most tasks (read: single-core) than my 16 core Threadripper desktop, which now mostly gathers dust since I got this MacBook Air. Don’t throw out your dedicated-GPU gaming PC, but the M1 is not only surprisingly competent, but is pretty awesome in many regards. Also, I’ve been using Macs since 2002, and I’m not sure what you’re talking about about having to dish out more and more money for issues. In fact, the two times I’ve had demonstrable hardware issues over the years, I’ve taken it to the Apple Store and they gave me a free replacement.

You don’t have to like the lack of expandability, you don’t have to like macOS, but they are objectively well-built machines.
@@TheWorldEnd2 I think it’s funny when people bring up expandability for laptops. No one upgrades their internals for the laptops after they buy it. FEW enthusiasts might add ram or SSD. But even then...
THIS is how you keep a preference while still being fair. Linus is the perfect example of a fair judge in todays tech community, nowadays it feels like most people in both sides of the Mac vs PC debate have become tribalistic and LTT is a breath of fresh air in the midst of all that.
I most definitely agree. Hearing this further encouraged me to finally get the MacBook Air 2020. I've always been a Windows/Linux guy with an Android phone. But listening to LTT's objective observations on this laptop, it showed me how both sides are good; to elaborate, this showed me that Apple is more than just a brand, but is tech company that can deliver an amazing user experience.
Could be the number of devices you have simultaneously connected. I had those numbers when I did a reset of my router, and saw about 900 (which is to be fair still not that full 1gbps promised by the ISP). But after I reconnected all smart devices like TVs and lights, it dropped back to a pathetic 400. So check your router. It’s usually that

It doesn't "emulate it", it reads the executable, processes it and converts the instructions into an ARM native executable which it then saves and runs. Emulation would mean realtime translation without modification of the original code. Also, seeing as this is an Apple custom design, the CPU actually has hardware added to it for compatibility with X86. Probably related to byte order as different CPUs often use different byte orders (little endian, big endian). For example, Motorola and Intel processors always used opposite byte orders and so emulating X86 on a 680x0 based Mac was slow as the CPU spent half the time just flipping bytes around.
@@6581punk I think all modern ARMs are already running little endian (ARM allow CPU manufacturer to decide either way). The thing that M1 probably has is ability to switch to similar memory model that x86 uses meaning that memory is automatically syncronized between CPU cores. Generic ARM CPU requires extra instructions to syncronize data between CPU cores and those syncronization instructions are pretty costly. Without that special feature, you cannot translate instructions for multithreaded programs without huge performance loss. Programs originally written for ARM expect the programmer to sort this out - transcompiling from x86 to ARM is harder and I guess Apple has added syncronization in hardware to fix the performance.
@@Dominus_Potatus For over 1000 dollars you would be getting a good graphics card with the competition, why is people acting like this is a great value?
No, just means that Apple spends a lot of money on advertising. I've noticed hundreds of almost word-to-word reviews of this M1 around. And all of them sound like a marketing BS.
@Luca . Some people just think that everything is a conspiracy. It's more likely that every reviewer challenges the claim by Apple and mentions similar thoughts because their results of testing are the same.
Maaaan your title made me all ready to come and yell at Linus about being entirely anti-Apple instead of recognizing how great the M1s are. b a i t e d.

Spoopy Scary Skelebones While in the past they had different chipsets, they now have the same, with 4 low-consumption core, and a better battery in the MPB M1.
Mans predicted the future by two years and new that Apple would be struggling now with sales because, like he said, they couldn’t one up the m1 Mac with m2 and no one’s feeling the need to upgrade to the point they ended production in February for m2.
As a developer I was fairly skeptical about Apple leaping into it's own silicon, and the compatibility issues that would arise with the software I use for work everyday. It's been great to see that it looks like an almost seamless transition. Can't wait to see what Apple has for their gen 2 chips!
Seamless? The only gripe I have is that homebrew is stored in two places and gets confused with itself over /usr/local and /opt/homebrew . That and Docker Previews Qemu likes crashing the rustc compiler

Glad to hear 10G in an eGPU enclosure works. That was one of my biggest concerns before upgrading. This definitely makes my life much easier (and cheaper) in the near future. Thanx!
As a somewhat educated guess from a Mac developer who admittedly doesn’t do much graphics work, I suspect the issue with eGPUs is more the fact that there are no drivers for non Apple Silicon GPUs on macOS running in Apple Silicon. From what I understand, in theory AMD and NVIDIA GPUs *could* work if either company wanted to make them work, it's just that Apple won’t be putting any effort in any more (outside of existing Intel Macs)
Yep, there is nothing special about the eGPU case itself, it is just a thunderbolt to PCIe expansion box with a power supply. So no real issues with drivers there. So native ARM AMD and nVidia drivers are probably the issue and it will be up to red or green to make those drivers. Kind of like the like when apple dropped support for nVidia a few years back, it was just nVdia never made new drivers for the new OS.
@@JerryBiehler I suppose it's unlikely to imagine that a GPU driver could function under Rosetta, right? Even if buggy, slow, and limited, it would be great to see a functional prototype driver setup hacked together.
@The Anonymous Sir Backspace It's not Intel specifically. it's x86/x86-64. Arm is a RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) architecture. It uses less transistors and less power to solve the same problems with the drawback of having less available instructions to do shortcuts in your assembly code (making for more efficient complex operations). Apple has shown that an Arm based processor can absolutely hold it's own performance wise for modern use cases their customers care about and that the difference in power consumption / heat generation in itself a powerful value add. I haven't written assembly since college so someone can correct me on my assembly knowledge if they want.
@@legatus_newt nowadays, CISC vs. RISC is pretty much an outdated classification. x86 "CISC" processors have been translating the incoming x86 instructions into the internal RISC-like instructions since at least Pentium Pro, while ARM "RISC" processors got their SIMD instructions (instructions which allow to process several numbers in one go) similar to x86s SSE and AVX. So, the difference is not really CISC vs RISC but a sheer amount of bloat that x86 instruction set has nowadays. Modern x86 processors have to support thousands of instructions which no one really uses just in order to maintain backwards compatibility with all the x86 processors which have ever existed, starting from the original Intel 8086.

I bought the MacBook Pro (16GB with Touch Bar and 1TB of storage) a few weeks ago and have been blown away by the battery life alone. As an example, at the start of this video I checked how long the battery will last (they give an estimate which is incredibly precise. You can find that information in the activity monitor if you press command space and type out 'activity monitor' in the spotlight search) and it was around 10 and a half hours while it was at 54%. At the end of the video I check again, still at 54% but this time with an estimated battery of 11 and a half hours. Best money I have spent this year, hands down. Edit: Spaced out sentences to make it easier to read and as a bonus it makes it look like a less lengthy comment.
It's really only useful for the average pc user when downloading games. It's not like every website/service will give you 10gbit.

@SEBASTIAN CORSINI I wonder if that cost includes soldering the additional RAM, or rather saying 8GB is enough and if you need more, you can afford more
@SEBASTIAN CORSINI also, the memory in the M1 chip isn’t equal to the memory found in our PC dimms. Apple is integrating the memory so the CPU and GPU cores have equal access. Not saying it’s worth $200. But you literally can’t get it anywhere. There’s no analog currently to compare it.
Repair technicians despair when macbooks gain in popularity. Cold comfort that Mac users bleed more cash than PC users, since Mac users have to buy a new computer (by Apple's recommendation) each time they upgrade or replace a part while a PC user just buys the part and swaps them.
@@Aereto Quite the contrary, less tech support issues over time, and higher resale value at the end of life can make it more cost effective depending on the scale.

One must think... "How long a battery do you need ?" At one point "saver mode" muse less useful... 10 hours for me n plenty.. and 15-20 hours would be insane...however, we always demand for more. I beehive we'll hit that limit eventually... It's not here yet, but it will be someday.
@@Tech-geeky It will probably be like phones, eventually the battery life will reach a point where it can last all day/almost all day on a single charge.

Also as someone who works for a large tech firm, nearly all engineers prefer to develop on macOS (go into any Amazon, Google, Apple office) and they find more value from MacBooks over the competing PCs because the tools are better and they are far more reliable. Also, IBM found that the cost of managing MacBooks vs. windows laptops internally was about 75% less overall considering IT and maintenance costs. so yeah, it was a really good value for a lot of people and a lot of companies. but perhaps, not for you if you don't need those things.

Kind of impressed that this macbook is running Rise of the Tomb Raider at nearly 60 fps, whilst apparently emulating it?
It doesn't "emulate it", it reads the executable, processes it and converts the instructions into an ARM native executable which it then saves and runs. Emulation would mean realtime translation without modification of the original code. Also, seeing as this is an Apple custom design, the CPU actually has hardware added to it for compatibility with X86. Probably related to byte order as different CPUs often use different byte orders (little endian, big endian).
For example, Motorola and Intel processors always used opposite byte orders and so emulating X86 on a 680x0 based Mac was slow as the CPU spent half the time just flipping bytes around.
@@6581punk some code is emulated, some is converted to native, and some is run through compatibility hardware.
@@6581punk I think all modern ARMs are already running little endian (ARM allow CPU manufacturer to decide either way). The thing that M1 probably has is ability to switch to similar memory model that x86 uses meaning that memory is automatically syncronized between CPU cores. Generic ARM CPU requires extra instructions to syncronize data between CPU cores and those syncronization instructions are pretty costly. Without that special feature, you cannot translate instructions for multithreaded programs without huge performance loss. Programs originally written for ARM expect the programmer to sort this out - transcompiling from x86 to ARM is harder and I guess Apple has added syncronization in hardware to fix the performance.

Glad to hear 10G in an eGPU enclosure works. That was one of my biggest concerns before upgrading. This definitely makes my life much easier (and cheaper) in the near future. Thanx!
You can get 10g adapters for TB3 for a lot cheaper than a eGPU case.
As a somewhat educated guess from a Mac developer who admittedly doesn’t do much graphics work, I suspect the issue with eGPUs is more the fact that there are no drivers for non Apple Silicon GPUs on macOS running in Apple Silicon. From what I understand, in theory AMD and NVIDIA GPUs *could* work if either company wanted to make them work, it's just that Apple won’t be putting any effort in any more (outside of existing Intel Macs)
Yep, there is nothing special about the eGPU case itself, it is just a thunderbolt to PCIe expansion box with a power supply. So no real issues with drivers there. So native ARM AMD and nVidia drivers are probably the issue and it will be up to red or green to make those drivers. Kind of like the like when apple dropped support for nVidia a few years back, it was just nVdia never made new drivers for the new OS.
@@JerryBiehler I suppose it's unlikely to imagine that a GPU driver could function under Rosetta, right? Even if buggy, slow, and limited, it would be great to see a functional prototype driver setup hacked together.
For a driver to work it needs to be at the OS level so it needs to be custom for the M1
This has somehow made Intel look even worse than it already is even on a video dedicated for Apple. LMAO
@The Anonymous Sir Backspace It's not Intel specifically. it's x86/x86-64. Arm is a RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) architecture. It uses less transistors and less power to solve the same problems with the drawback of having less available instructions to do shortcuts in your assembly code (making for more efficient complex operations). Apple has shown that an Arm based processor can absolutely hold it's own performance wise for modern use cases their customers care about and that the difference in power consumption / heat generation in itself a powerful value add.
I haven't written assembly since college so someone can correct me on my assembly knowledge if they want.
@@legatus_newt true
@@legatus_newt nowadays, CISC vs. RISC is pretty much an outdated classification. x86 "CISC" processors have been translating the incoming x86 instructions into the internal RISC-like instructions since at least Pentium Pro, while ARM "RISC" processors got their SIMD instructions (instructions which allow to process several numbers in one go) similar to x86s SSE and AVX. So, the difference is not really CISC vs RISC but a sheer amount of bloat that x86 instruction set has nowadays. Modern x86 processors have to support thousands of instructions which no one really uses just in order to maintain backwards compatibility with all the x86 processors which have ever existed, starting from the original Intel 8086.
@The Anonymous Sir Backspace(not a apple nor intel fanboy im just impressed to the m1 mac's) [intel user for over 5 years] the intel cpu's on mac crippled the power of the intel the cooling is shit soo it throttled but i think im going to buy the m1 macbook air in september
I bought the MacBook Pro (16GB with Touch Bar and 1TB of storage) a few weeks ago and have been blown away by the battery life alone.
As an example, at the start of this video I checked how long the battery will last (they give an estimate which is incredibly precise. You can find that information in the activity monitor if you press command space and type out 'activity monitor' in the spotlight search) and it was around 10 and a half hours while it was at 54%.
At the end of the video I check again, still at 54% but this time with an estimated battery of 11 and a half hours.
Best money I have spent this year, hands down.

It's really only useful for the average pc user when downloading games. It's not like every website/service will give you 10gbit. I have gbit fiber and the web doesn't feel any faster for me than it did when I had 300mbit cable. The only big difference I've noticed is that download games off steam is very very very fast.
So the Apple problem is that... they are doing too well?...
Suffering from success.
Don’t ask Linux that question. This has been settled for weeks.
there is an argument to this, when companies do too well they become lazy and stop innovating, just look at intel who has now be caught with their guard down by apple and amd.

@@GamingWO- I mean it’s definitely a clickbait title. Linus’ initial critiques and skepticism were blown way out of proportion, and he’s trolling a bit with the title. He has to be fully aware that this is just the very beginning of what will almost certainly be a whole series of game changing, class-upending, industry disrupting computers. These are just the warmup act. I can’t wait for a MBP 16” with a M1X (or M2), or a Mac Mini Pro with 4 ports, 32GB RAM (or even better, 64GB🤞🏼).
I currently run my 2017 maxed out 15” mostly docked at my desk in a Henge vertical dock with an eGPU, dual monitors, a thunderbolt RAID, and a thunderbolt hub... all off the two cables running into the Henge. But I may go Mac Mini if (when) the four port option arrives.
My 15” will have lost so much resale value, that I’ll probably sell it and buy a 13” M1 for on the go stuff (when the need for that returns). Exciting times to be a Mac user!

@SEBASTIAN CORSINI I wonder if that cost includes soldering the additional RAM, or rather saying 8GB is enough and if you need more, you can afford more
@SEBASTIAN CORSINI a decent 8GB RAM Stick is north of $60
@SEBASTIAN CORSINI also, the memory in the M1 chip isn’t equal to the memory found in our PC dimms. Apple is integrating the memory so the CPU and GPU cores have equal access.
Not saying it’s worth $200. But you literally can’t get it anywhere. There’s no analog currently to compare it.
@SEBASTIAN CORSINI Fitting a 8gb stick on such a small Soc would be very difficult.

Repair technicians despair when macbooks gain in popularity.
Cold comfort that Mac users bleed more cash than PC users, since Mac users have to buy a new computer (by Apple's recommendation) each time they upgrade or replace a part while a PC user just buys the part and swaps them.
@@Aereto "swapping parts" shouldnt be necessary. its crazy that ppl have to upgrade just to keep up with chrome every year.

@@Aereto Quite the contrary, less tech support issues over time, and higher resale value at the end of life can make it more cost effective depending on the scale.

@E e 50 Dongles? What?
@E e That's just not true.
@E e I mean, why would you require dongles: USB Drives and external SSDs are Type C already; for connecting phones, there's wireless (or Type C to Type C), for monitors, there's Type C already, for printers, you gotta wireless: everything is becoming Type C (or straight wireless), everything I can think of, so unless you use ultra-old hardwares, why would you need dongles? I don't get it. Or do you just need a Headphone jack (yeah, that's important, that's something I can consider and excuse).
Never once considered that performance degradation would occur because of a fan. That's really interesting. Making me rethink which one I want.
Damn you Linus and your click bait title, I came here to hate on Apple, now I'm somewhat interested in one lol
Dude, it happened to me with some other TH-camr. I went in watching the video to hate and 6 minutes later, I bought one. I have to say, the M1 chip is pretty great
You know, I used to have a Macbook for my job on which I also got into amateur music production (which is extremely easy so even a simpelton like me can get something to sound decent with Garage Band). I used to dread the moment where I would have to get my own Apple machine for that after moving on from that job, but now I'm actually looking forward to it as it's an all around great machine that I hope will stay with me for a long time. Being fanless is just a dream come true!
You can keep hating Apple as a company, but the product is solid (as long you do not check how the sausage is made).
@@banditpsy If you actually take a step back and look at all the factors, you'll realize that a lot of your hate towards Apple is unfounded.
