Oh, these long-awaited arm laptops are designed for high TDP and have active cooling. I don't see why to choose them over Intel/AMD in that case.
Depends on the specifics. My high-end MacBook Pro uses active cooling, but in practice it almost never comes on. It's wayyyyy more efficient than the previous Intel gen.
A week or two ago, I accidentally left a Python process running using 100% of a single core. I didn't even notice for several hours, until it ate up all my RAM. On on Intel laptop the fan would've let me know in like two minutes.
I don't think Qualcomm's actually caught up to Apple yet, but it's getting close. It's good to see more competition.
Plus it's landed like, what, a couple of weeks before a new set of AMD CPUs?
I think people are about to have a rude awakening. ARM isn't magic. ISA doesn't matter a huge amount.
