It is? Source please. I've heard, for availability, "before the end of the year" and "Q1 2022" for mobile Alder Lake, which is what we're talking about.

Keep your eyes peeled tomorrow, desktop skus should ship early November.

OK, so then that's not meaningful at all for the discussion which was about comparative strength of mobile SKUs.

at 95W max power, m1 max is not much of a "mobile" SKU either. Lines are blurry where these chips are positioned.

As for your power consumption figures, Apple has a supply agreement over 5nm so don't think you can compare architecture apples to apples yet.
