I don’t really know if ARM adds benefits I’d really notice as an end user, but it’ll be interesting to see if this really goes through and upends the dominant architecture we’ve seen for really 40+ years.
As an ARM Mac user, I wouldn’t trade all this new battery life for an x86 processor
As a potential iPad buyer, I would trade a millimeter of slimness for a vastly improved battery.
Idk, the battery of my 12.9“ iPad Pro is great.
