The Apple M1 Chip: A Game Changer for Laptops?

Apple's latest chip, the M1, is set to revolutionize the laptop industry with its impressive performance and battery life. But how will it fare in real-world usage? In this article, we'll delve into the details of the M1 chip and explore its potential impact on the laptop market.

According to Apple, the M1 chip is a significant improvement over previous chips. It boasts 3x CPU performance and 2x graphics performance, making it a powerhouse for tasks like video editing and software development. But what does this mean for users? Simply put, the M1 chip will enable faster performance and more efficient use of resources, resulting in longer battery life.

One of the most exciting aspects of the M1 chip is its ability to run on multiple architectures. Apple has confirmed that the new chip will be compatible with both x86 and ARM-based apps, allowing developers to create universal apps that can be used across multiple platforms. This means that users will have access to a wide range of software, including productivity apps like Pages, Numbers, and iMovie, as well as games and other apps.

But what about apps that aren't natively compiled for the M1 chip? Apple claims that Rosetta 2, its virtualization technology, will enable seamless compatibility with x86-based apps. However, we'll need to put this claim to the test to see how it performs in real-world usage.

One thing is certain: the M1 chip will be a significant upgrade over previous chips from Intel and AMD. But how will it perform in real-world applications? We can only speculate at this point, but one thing is clear - Apple has set high standards for its new chip, and we'll need to wait and see how it delivers.

In terms of hardware, the M1 chip will be integrated into a range of devices, including the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro. One notable difference between these models is the presence of a fan, which will help keep the system cool during intense usage. Additionally, Apple has confirmed that the Mac Mini will also feature this new chip, along with a built-in fan.

One area where the M1 chip shines is in battery life. According to Apple's estimates, users can expect up to 17-20 hours of battery life on the MacBook Pro 13 and up to 15-18 hours on the MacBook Air. This is impressive for such a powerful system, and bodes well for real-world usage.

But what do developers think about this new chip? The verdict is still out, but many are optimistic about the M1 chip's potential. With its improved performance and compatibility with multiple architectures, it's clear that Apple has created a chip that will be at the forefront of laptop innovation.

The implications of the M1 chip extend beyond the laptop market as well. The trend towards integrating memory within the CPU is on the rise, and this chip takes it to new heights. With no room for upgrading or expanding the system's memory, users will need to choose wisely when purchasing a device. This raises questions about the future of laptop design and how manufacturers will adapt to this new reality.

As we wait for more information about the M1 chip, one thing is clear: Apple has set high standards for its latest innovation. With its impressive performance, long battery life, and compatibility with multiple architectures, it's clear that this chip will be a game-changer for laptops. But only time will tell how it performs in real-world usage.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhi guys this is ranjit and let's talk about the apple's new silicon that is the m1 chip and i feel this is can be sort of a game changer and yes apple announced three new devices that will be coming with this m1 chip that's the new macbook air even the uh apple uh mac mini and even the macbook pro 13 inches that's not the exciting thing the exciting thing is the n1 chip and if guys if you recall apple has been sort of a leader already uh with the mobile soc with their a13 the latest a14 bionic chip they have a huge leap over other mobile socs but now uh with this computer chip they are trying to actually do it even in this computer space but again this chip is very different generally if you know uh in your laptop you might be having chips from intel or an amd and these are x86 chips but what apple is doing with this m1 chip is this is again arm architecture so again this is like what uh processing that is used on your smartphones so let's talk about this one it's the new m1 chip and again as it's apple they gave some graphs numbers those actually mind-boggling numbers that they have thrown at because generally uh what we have seen in this uh what do you say traditional computing cpu increases that we see we generally see a performance leap of about 15 percent max to about 20 every generation apple is actually claiming 3x the performance with this m1 chip that is 300 percent which is not hurt so let's have a closer look at this one and yes i will try to get a new macbook air and i'll compare it with some of the laptops that i have for example this is the older macbook air that i have that is having the intel uh chip so again i think so this will uh be coming by end of november in india also so let's see but let's first have a look at the chip itself and as you can see this is the first screenshot of the chip this is actually based on five nanometer process and here again apple has a huge leap if you recall intel is stuck to 14 nanometer yes some of their what do you say chips are now moving to 10 nanometer process but most of them are still stuck to 14. uh that way i would say amd is doing better job it's on 7 nanometer but apple has directly moved to the five nanometer with this m1 chip and what this helps them to do is pack in a lot of transistors uh apple claims actually they have 16 billion transistors on this m1 chip and again if you uh talk about the architecture again it's this is like something like smartphones this is eight core chip that they have but it's divided into two parts first is a four core that's a high performance chip that is used for heavy task and then we have four other chips that is used for power low task that way the chip is more power efficient so it's this we have seen a lot in what you say mobile soc so they are doing something like this but the big thing is that they claim that this m1 chip can get almost 3x the performance in terms of cpu tasks so that is something we have to note of course as it's based on arm architecture it will be way more efficient than intel chips and one big difference that we have on this m1 chip is that for example if you have your computer or even a laptop uh you know that in some of the laptops not every laptop you can easily upgrade the ram because the ram is separate you can just add modules if it's allowed but with this n1 chip if you look at this actually screenshot uh the memory is part of the cpu so you simply cannot expand the memory for example uh the base variant comes with eight gigabytes of ram so if you're looking for 16 gigabytes or something uh you have to actually order it when you're buying the computer because the ram is within the chip and yes due to this actually the i o operations and stuff can become a lot more faster but in terms of upgradability you have to be careful you if you're buying these new uh what is apple silicon chips on a later state you simply cannot add ram because the ram is now part of the cpu that's actually a big change uh now moving to uh the gpu uh apple says that this one is having eight core gpu and they through some numbers that this is almost 2x the performance we don't know with what gpus they were comparing i don't think so they were comparing a dedicated nvidia or amd radeon chips so it'll be interesting to see how it performs and again uh because it's on their own architecture very efficient they say that again even in gpu tasks it's very power efficient and that is one of the reasons that on the new macbook air for example this is the old macbook air in fact uh this is the same design even on the new one if i would have told you this is the arm you would have to believe it but they simply do not have any fans on the new model uh because they say that these chips do not heat that much so that is actually very interesting thing the macbook air generally it's silent but when i push it for example if i'm doing some video editing or any heavy task the fans come out but on the new one macbook air they simply do not have any fans they say that because it generates so less heat next thing is the advantage that you'll get is that generally low heat also uh battery life should be actually good they shared some stats i'll share that in the later part of the video and also because uh these are arm-based chips these will act like your smartphone for example the moment you click on your smartphone it wakes for example wakes up like this so they say that will happen to the new max instant on performance that you will get now moving to some of the things that i'm a little bit skeptical and if you guys uh know uh till date most of the what do you say computer apps are written for x86 architecture that's by intel and ah intel and uh what do you say amd but now apple is doing this is arm based uh so apps have to be sort of rewritten to take advantage of this uh apple says that they will have universal app and the good thing is that at apple native apps for example pages numbers etc this is the word alternative that apple gives and again even productivity apps like imovie and even final cut pro are already universal apps that means they will work even on this new arm-based mac as well as internal apps but again if let's say a developer hasn't ported their apps to arm architecture then it will use emulation to make it run and they say this is rosetta too and here i'm a little bit skeptical and i'm keeping my fingers crossed how well the apps that are not natively compiled for this new arm chip work on this one using the rosetta too apple claims that it works very well but this is something that i'm waiting to see how it does they say that uh other popular developers like adobe etc uh will be releasing their popular apps like photoshop etc very soon but again if you know uh there are tons and tons of apps that are natively written for the x86 and be interesting to see how these apps will run on this new arm chip using rosetta because it's again sort of what do you say virtualization and converting it on the fly let's see how it works uh according to apple it works very well but let's see that is something that i have to test but good thing is that as this is on arm this chip all the native apps that you have found on your iphone and even ipads will actually run on this mac and it'll run actually very fast but again i'm a little bit skeptical about some of the uh apps that need virtualization uh for example if you're sort of a developer or anything maybe you run vm apps how will they run on this one so yes the apps that are already compiled for this for example the universal apps and i'm pretty sure developers will move their popular apps to universal apps but those apps are not using the universal apps that's a question how well will they run on this new mac again apple is throwing numbers of about 3x cpu performance 2x the graphic uh performance that will be interesting to see how it performs and uh what i'll do is i'll try to get the new macbook air uh i have this macbook air and i'll try to compare it with this one i also have a macbook pro 13 inch uh let's see how it performs and what are the real world figures for for example guys i always like to believe in real world usage for example a couple of months ago i did a video about intel chips versus amd chips using real world applications and we'll also try to do the same with the new macbook air and see how much of an improvement do we see in real world usage so again stay tuned for that and yes the macbook pros uh will have actually a fan and even the macbook sorry uh the mac mini will also have a fan with but again the common thing is that all of them are using this envelone chip so let's see i'm also keeping my fingers crossed to see and yes because of this m1 chip apple was throwing some numbers regarding the battery life let me actually show you that slide and according to them as you can see for the macbook pro 13 they say that you can get about 17 to 20 hours of battery life per charge and the macbook air should get about 15 to about 18 hours so again very impressive numbers but let's see how do they uh perform in the real world so again stay tuned to my channel uh when i get the new macbook air will definitely test it out in the real world and let you guys know the real performance anyways guys that's it for now thanks for watching uh what do you guys think about this apple m1 chip because if this really works this is a real game changer i would say and intel really needs to work hard because we have seen intel lagging even with the amd ryzen 45 what do you say 4000 series of chips that we are getting for laptops and with this one if the apple m1 chip really performs well in real life apple has taken a huge lead anyways but what do you guys think about the same let me know and what do you think of this new trend of having the memory within the cpu uh because if it's like that you simply cannot upgrade it uh moving uh forward for example let's say you want to buy a machine with 8 gigabytes of ram and later on upgrade to 16 that you can do with current laptop you simply can't do that stuff with this so what do you guys think about the same anyways guys that's it for now thanks for watching this is ranjit and i hope to see you in my next video take care guyshi guys this is ranjit and let's talk about the apple's new silicon that is the m1 chip and i feel this is can be sort of a game changer and yes apple announced three new devices
