The only problem with Apple is their ecosystem. They lock customer's in it.

But people accept it. Why? Because Apple makes sure (due to their inherent control over hardware and software) that thier ecosystem is well integrated and works nice.

This is all good and nice untill you see the restrictions. Like the best video editors Da Vinci resolve, Adobe premiere both available on Mac and windows but Apples final cut is only for mac (Not even for their own M1 iPad pro).

Ever thought of custom building a computer (not specifically pc/linux/mac), then you can select any part you want of your choice and your budget and also can upgrade later.

CPU: only intel and amd (see the restriction), GPU: Nvidia, Amd and now upcoming intel. RAM, Storage etc.

Now, some people will say, why do I even care about a pc I will just get a Mac book, Mac mini or Mac Pro. (It's just your use case and not everybody's).

But ideally it should be like: yeah, but what can we do, it is what it is. (Now this is accepting the situation and going with the best. i.e. if in future Apple or any other corporation is not up to the mark then just move on, no need to defend them).

A prime example is the RED camera system. You can only use their storage to record, which is very expensive. But now their latest camera you can use other cards as well.

I'm still waiting for the day where I can run my eGPU with that M1 chipset.

Don't you know that a 5800H is common a notebook CPU ? 11800 11th generation offer from Intel are in 14000 already.
At end of the day what matter is results,  i can render a scene in half time  than  M1 . So instead of 40min i can render in 20 min. 20 min back in my life. or i can double the iterations to get a better work.
In multicore M1 is behind probably by 4 years
When that changes i'll praise them, competition is what makes all of them improve.

Almost unveiling a local device image scanner to detect "pedophilic images", then only backing out due to backlash? (everyone with a brain knows it wont be used just for those images)
Despite all the silly discussion, the fact is what Apple proposed in nothing more than what's already in place for Europe: Google "Chat Control and Patrick Breyer".

That's the price to pay for claiming something is new to ignorant people. If you have a problem with it, complain with your local politician.

Considering macos nuts system resources requirements to load an app..  I do hope linux taking its places on m1.

Amazed people buy Apple just on account of the company's track record. Updates bricking your device or disabling features years down the line, just to force you to upgrade? Disabling standard device features to force you to use other Apple products and stay within their device ecosystem? Almost unveiling a local device image scanner to detect "pedophilic images", then only backing out due to backlash? (everyone with a brain knows it wont be used just for those images)

We may like or dislike it, the fact remains Apple has a killer CPU that far exceeds anything else in power efficiency and thermal output for that raw computational power. Be free to rave about it's limitations in DesktopCheck and ServerCheck, because as far as what would be espected in NotebookCheck you are only making silly desperate arguments to diminish the significance of the M1 in notebooks, ultraportables, and the likes.

It would be dumb if these ARM computer being called a desktop replacement, because everything is soldered now.

Apple processors are good only for the consumers and not for those industry which requires compute power/server (which is required by everyone). So they still depends on Intel, AMD and Nvidia (or they develop their own custom solutions).

Just check every scientific institutions around the world, Hollywood's rendering systems, military, supercomputers and many more.

Any large scale compute solution requires CPU/GPU and Apple don't supply that individual chip. So it's not scalable.

But for general consumers and indie developers/creators it is very good and efficient.

Ridiculous.
It certainly do not dominates anything that needs multicore. A Cinebench render in a 5800H is 13000 in M1 is 7xxx...
You're missing a key point. My M1 MBP get 7988 points in Cinebench and the thing is, I never heard the fan spin up at all. Any system with a 5800H would have its fans blaring at max speed and not to mention, the system itself will be much chunkier at the same time. The 5800H, to get the score that you mentioned would be sucking around 50-60W, while my MacBook only used 20. The efficiency of the M1 is how it got its recognition. Many people, including you, fail to understand that. Not to mention, during day-to-day tasks, such as google docs, checking email, etc, uses only 2W of power on average. 5800H? More like 10-15. Even gaming on M1 uses only 10-15W of power, which is including its iGPU which is faster than intel's and AMD's best iGPUs.

People compare the M1 MacBooks to fat gaming laptops with terrible battery life and are naturally much thicker and heavier than a MacBook, while they should be comparing it to thin and lights, such as and XPS 13 or Spectre x360 13. The MacBook Pro and Air 13 are thin and lights, not chunky gaming laptops and thus shouldn't be compared to them.

Does it really only use 2w? Really? Your numbers sees off on more than one occasion mate.

The discussion started with desktop performance, and m1 can't measure there for the pro users - or the multi core as the dude said if you will..

There's no doubt m1 is impressive, but they really haven't made anything for desktop users yet. I'm sure it will come, but they need to prove it can scale up first.

"Only if you have been living under a rock and ignored all the examples and evidence of M1 native Desktop application performance dominance by the M1 over the last few months."

..."Some would argue that M1 is a mobile chip and Apple still needs to prove that the ARM architecture can be optimized for desktop workstation applications"...

The efficient M1 processors could soon become compatible with operating systems like Android and Windows, without the need for virtualization. Maynard Handley, one of the developers of the Apple QuickTime video format, is compiling a reverse-engineering M1 bible that is aiming to make the custom ARM-based architecture open source.
