I’ve had two different XPS laptops over the years, I finally switched to MacBook last year and got an M2 Pro after hearing great things about the M-series chips and battery life. The XPS’s were good for the first year or two but after that, their performance quickly diminished and battery life was always not great. Could not be happier with the switch, and I can access my Microsoft apps just as easily on MacBook without issues. It’s insane the difference in quality and performance I’ve noticed between the two considering they’re very similar price points. Never buying Dell again. Still use a PC desktop though.

@@akin242002 You're making assumptions that everyone, if not most people, live their lives exactly as you do. To even suggest that 18 hours of battery life wouldn't be helpful because the usage is not consecutive is logically flawed as being able to use a portable product for multiple days (whether it's in staggered 4-6 hour stretches of time as you suggested or consecutive usage) without having to plug it in, has inherent value in a product whose whole point is portability, something is inherently less portable the more tethered it has to be.

Hey Max, or anyone else with M3 Macbook Air. Can you try Low-power-mode. I got MBA 13" M3 16/512, but low power mode does not work at all, I set it "always", I do Geekbench test, power/frequencies, all is the same with and without low-power-mode. I also have M2 MBP, and it works as expected, 66% reduction in power usage in LPM. Can someone confirm with M3? I called apple support, they told me to wait 2-3 days for feature to start working, because Macbook is new, I told them that it does not make sense, but ok...

So for TWICE THE PRICE, you get a nicer (but smaller) screen, 1/3 the battery length, loud fans that can take 2-3x longer to do production work... seems like a deal. Not sure this thing is worth bothering to do a comparison to the M3 Pro MBP....

Nice. I just bought my first macbook at 49 , an Air M3 ..I've always been a windows guy. This video confirms the exact issues I've always had with my Windows laptops. Power/heat/fans and battery life and overall reliability that it's going to power on if I haven't used it for a few days. I still have a gaming Windows desktop but having a laptop I can count on with battery life/silence and performance the M series air is killing anything windows and I still run Parallels/Windows 50 percent of the time on the AIr. I'll bet the M1 air could have been close or have beaten this XPS with those scores you have.

Damn, I'm glad I bought an air m3 15 16gb 512gb....it's a shame it doesn't have a better screen so it would be simply "PERFECT" I'm using my ipad pro 12.9 miniled to watch series because of the contrast and hdr issues with better color representation...but the rest... Please, I'm also looking for interesting AI applications for photos, rescaling...etc... can you post some interesting ones?

not a big of a diference, but go for at least 16GB of ram or you're done. if you don't have a big budget, go for the air M2 16GB 256GB, and that would work just fine. but if you have >1500 dollars or maybe want to have 1 more year of OS update, then get the M3 (still 16GB of ram, that's important) cause thay only have 512GB storage version for the 16GB one, but with this price range, go get a discounted macbook pro m2 pro then.

At 8:45 one can see that the Intel CPU has 6 performance cores, 8 efficiency cores and 2 low power cores. It is amazing that 4 perf. and 4 efficiency cores in M3 are still able to stay only 9% behind while using probably only half of the power (not to speak about single core dominance).

Even though the M3 Air did Apple proud, I'd still like to see a price-comparable M3 Pro for physical (port/screen) parity & just to see how far ahead the bang of the buck is. Also, it might be worth adding games into the mix now we have reasonably current optimised titles (NMS & RE8).

Definitely do a Dell XPS 14 vs M3 MacBook Pro laptop comparison video. They are rivals. Although Asus ZenBook Pro 14x (including Intel Ultra CPUs) and HP Specter 360 14-inch are taking market share away from Dell XPS on the Windows laptop side of the market.
