I’ve had two different XPS laptops over the years, I finally switched to MacBook last year and got an M2 Pro after hearing great things about the M-series chips and battery life. The XPS’s were good for the first year or two but after that, their performance quickly diminished and battery life was always not great. Could not be happier with the switch, and I can access my Microsoft apps just as easily on MacBook without issues. It’s insane the difference in quality and performance I’ve noticed between the two considering they’re very similar price points. Never buying Dell again. Still use a PC desktop though.

@@akin242002 You're making assumptions that everyone, if not most people, live their lives exactly as you do. To even suggest that 18 hours of battery life wouldn't be helpful because the usage is not consecutive is logically flawed as being able to use a portable product for multiple days (whether it's in staggered 4-6 hour stretches of time as you suggested or consecutive usage) without having to plug it in, has inherent value in a product whose whole point is portability, something is inherently less portable the more tethered it has to be. Moreover, I was not making an argument for or against any specific laptop, I made a general statement about battery life, so saying that "most laptops" provide enough battery life for the specific scenario you laid out has no meaning towards or against my general statement.

Nice. I just bought my first macbook at 49 , an Air M3 ..I've always been a windows guy. This video confirms the exact issues I've always had with my Windows laptops. Power/heat/fans and battery life and overall reliability that it's going to power on if I haven't used it for a few days. I still have a gaming Windows desktop but having a laptop I can count on with battery life/silence and performance the M series air is killing anything windows and I still run Parallels/Windows 50 percent of the time on the AIr. I'll bet the M1 air could have been close or have beaten this XPS with those scores you have.

At 8:45 one can see that the Intel CPU has 6 performance cores, 8 efficiency cores and 2 low power cores. It is amazing that 4 perf. and 4 efficiency cores in M3 are still able to stay only 9% behind while using probably only half of the power (not to speak about single core dominance).

Just moved back to Windows, as the Mac is just not an IT work station, was one of the most frustrating doorsteps I have used, glad I have a Dell Precision 5680 with easily a days battery life for my work, the previous mac book pro is a lab machine and youtube brick for my dad!

Pro tip: double check your charts before finish rendering your video. There are mistakes pretty much on every video. Most common being getting the products and their scores mixed up.

Even though the M3 Air did Apple proud, I'd still like to see a price-comparable M3 Pro for physical (port/screen) parity & just to see how far ahead the bang of the buck is. Also, it might be worth adding games into the mix now we have reasonably current optimised titles (NMS & RE8).
