TDP is a lie. M1 can draw up to 100W. https://www.anandtech.com/show/17024/apple-m1-max-performanc...

The real world implications of these number matter more than the numbers themselves.

If you tell me TDP is a lie, I’ll believe you.

However, that doesn’t change the fact that there still aren’t any great fanless laptops from anybody other than Apple. I was attributing it to TDP, but maybe it’s something else.

Did you paste the wrong link? That is about M1 Max, which is a very different, much bigger, chip.
Indeed the M1 not max draw 30W max, there is a link in the article I sent, my mistake.
