Ok then, entry level on Apple's scale. The i9 MBP's were the previous generation of "top of the line" CPU's offered, and the M1 is the "bottom of the line". An i9 MBP would start at around $3500-4000AUD whereas you can get an M1 Air for ~$1100AUD.

If I was to pay the same for an Apple Silicone MBP as I did for a previous gen i9, I would be getting an M1 Max which absolutely demolishes laptop i9's and has none of the thermal issues.
