Drawing general comparisons is exactly what this article tries to do at the end, that's one of my concerns with it.

They don't know what state the M2 was in at the start of each test (because the hw monitoring support isn't there yet), and this is a system that is known to thermally throttle, so the individual results are potentially flawed too.

The laptops don't cost the same amount. This is comparing an $1100 laptop to an $1800 laptop.

FWIW, I don't actually care which is faster (I own both AMD and Apple hardware that I use for different things) - I just think the review is flawed.
