Don’t care. Still not using the M1 chip, and still using Lightning Cable to charge… Maybe they get it right on the 15, but I doubt it. Apple has been on a slide towards mediocrity since Steve died.

I’ll agree on USB-C, but why would it need to have the M1 chip? What performance upside is that going to give you that wouldn’t be more than offset by the massively increased power consumption?

M1 has a better power management. My MacBook Pro goes days without charging and trust me, I use it. I want 3-4 days between charges. Not nightly. Pipe dream I know, but a man can dream. I’d be quite happy with usb c.

Your MacBook doesn’t have a 5G modem in it sucking down power. You might not realize it but cellular modems use a lot of power.

And your MacBook has a much bigger battery.

You’re not wrong. I did say it’s a pipe dream.
