The M Series doesn't get battery life rep due to it being arm its purely due to Apple optimizing for battery life and partly marketing it a ton. You can get x86 chips that can do 24HR playing a video which is 5 hours more than the M2/M3 laptops and keep in mind thats running bloated ass windows which probably uses 2-3x the system resources of macOS. I'm pretty sure the snapdragon chips out preform Apple silicon at almost every metric.

No, not even close.

I have extremely low trust in the methodology of that website. Just seeing the multi threaded benchmarks alone is enough to know they've cooked most of those tests on the snapdragon Elite machines. The Snapdragon chips came out before the M4 to compete vs the M3 which they won in almost every metric except single core. Since the X2 is soon to be released they appear very likely do that again.
