I’m surprised someone hasn’t yet compared it to a supercomputer and declared that Apple’s chips aren’t that good after all.
Remember that there are still, and will always be, people who hate the fact that Apple is successful, and feel that they have to do something to knock it down.
Also some want to show that Apple’s product isn’t as good as many people think (and actually is), so they do something outlandish to prove otherwise. We know that’s not true, but it’s fun to think. They compared it to those workstations for the same reason they did it with the original M1 Macbook Pro and Mac Mini, because why not? Unfortunately, Apple coming out with its own chips seems to have had some people think that Apple is stating that these chips are more powerful than anything else, no matter what. I've yet to find anyone who's not been impressed with the power and longevity of the "lowly" fanless M1 MacBook Air. I think this new pair of MacBook Pros will fare extremely well and impress their owners in the same way that the first generation M1 MacBook Air and M1 MacBook Pro have done. DaVinci Resolve is the world’s only solution that combines editing, color correction, visual effects, motion graphics and audio post production all in one software tool. I would upgrade to an Air now but I'm using a Thinkpad for field recordings and it works fine, the fan has never come on although it's a small source of stress to me that it has the possibility of coming on and with my luck it would be during a quiet stretch of music.the M1 Air runs DaVinci Resolve excellently.Oh well, Apple's new MacBook Pro's will have to prove themselves in the real world in the hands of people who are trying to get real work done where and when they need to, in the shortest amount of time, and without having to be frequently tethered to the power mains. I would upgrade to an Air now but I'm using a Thinkpad for field recordings and it works fine, the fan has never come on although it's a small source of stress to me that it has the possibility of coming on and with my luck it would be during a quiet stretch of music. I suppose I could put Resolve on the Air for light editing and entering metadata in the field on video shoots, but the base M1 machines are generally no match for Resolve when it comes to color grading and especially Fusion (even the new studio ultra has a hard time with Fusion).
I do use DaVinci Resolve but wouldn't even think of putting it on an Air I have a desktop machine for that. I think my biggest project in the past 10 years had 15 tracks, with three virtual instrument tracks, all the rest acoustic. I do mainly acoustic music recording on location, so the Air would be a perfect machine for me: I'm often one of the musicians and even if I'm not I'm usually in the same room as the musicians so having a powerful laptop without a fan is perfect.
