Yup.

With a 60 Hz LCD.

Pretty much every other brand out there has moved onto OLED 90, 120 or even faster and better displays.

Yeah, 360 Hz is an absolute minimum these days to watch movies, type emails and do some office stuff. That was impossible for the last 30 years on those measly 6🤢 Hz.

The Apple M4 SoC will undoubtedly bring some much-needed performance improvements to the table, in both CPU and GPU departments.

Much-needed, seriously? Did I miss the news where the M3 was suddenly found to be some tragically slow trash or what? Why is it MUCH-NEEDED exactly?
