MacBooks right now in particular are so far ahead of everything else right now. Nothing comes close in terms of performance and battery life. Some laptops can do one or the other, but if it’s fast you can expect the battery life to be shit or vice versa.
The battery on their arm devices are insane. I can disconnect my laptop at 100% without shutting it down. Go home. Sleep. And then work another 8h without the battery dying on me.
It’s very impressive. I can’t think of other laptops that have comparable battery life/performance combo as that macbook pro.
My previous (work) dell laptop barely made 4h ( more like 3 ) and was in the same price range. While I’m not an apple fanboy at all, and there are basis things it just cant do natively ( keyboard window management needs an external app?? ), their macbooks are absolutely the best laptops I’ve ever worked with.
My Zephyrus G14 could do that too while running Visual Studio. AMD’s mobile chips are also pretty efficient and Windows laptops are not as far off from Macbooks in terms of battery life as people think.

Are 12+ hours of intense work realistic on those devices?
