100% the m1 reminds me of the leap from a BlackBerry to my first iPhone. With my m1 laptop, I never have to worry about bringing my charger. My intel MBP always had slowdowns, with my M1 I've never noticed a slowdown.

The m1's compute/watt will enable designers to change the dimensions of a laptop to be even smaller and compact. If the iphone's a15 starts to be near m1 compute-power, we could actually see the iPhone merge to become the device powering our monitors and keyboards. The new possibilities of such a revolutionary technology is endless!

I highly doubt that because it means Apple will sell zero macbooks and they don't want less sales.
