I can't notice any significant difference in performance compared to my top-of-the-line Windows PC, and shockingly, when it's under load, it's actually quieter than my desktop as well. Almost all of the applications that I'm used to on my PC work the exact same on the Mac.Īs expected, the hardest part about moving over to a Mac was getting used to the operating system, but the laptop was so compelling as a machine that I wanted to like it, and I was willing to put up with the frustration to learn the software.

No matter how many applications and web browsers I open, the laptop does not slow down. Although I've dealt with years of unreliable thunderbolt docks and dongles, this one actually works reliably. In my office, I have it connected to a ton of peripherals and dual 4k monitors with a single Thunderbolt cable via the Sandisk Pro Dock 4.

It's the best laptop I've ever owned by far, but it's also the first laptop that feels like it can truly be a desktop replacement. The M1 MacBook Pro is the first laptop I've ever used that actually feels like it can do everything.
