“ There are specific tasks that see a significant difference. If you’re editing ProRes video or working with Apple’s Metal graphics API, there is a clear benefit to the more powerful chip. But that isn’t the case for many creative tasks…”

I mean…yeah..that’s sort of how these things are supposed to work, right?

I get that a lot of consumers aren’t experts and rely on the marketing. So when they buy the most expensive laptop that Apple will sell then they expect it to be considerably “better” than the next rung down the ladder. I guess I just don’t blame Apple for that like I should?

Maybe the marketing materials could be more clear and lay out the exact cases where it would be better. But I just don’t think most people would read it.
