So all M1 Macs don't have any fans ? This is crazy .

Only the Air's do not have fans, the Pro ones do, as far as I know.

Macbook Pro with M1 (is it M1pro I don't remember), but anyway, all of them have fans. I have yet to hear mine though, completely different from my previous intel MPB where fans were spinning on 80% almost constantly.

That is such a refresh. I have used the highest-spec i9/i7 Macbooks at work with 32GB of RAM and they would always, always get incredibly noisy and hot for even the basic things. One of them couldn't live for more than two years because of that.

It’s almost frustrating. I got used to using my Intel MBP as a portable hot plate to snort cocaine from, but with the new M1 MBP it takes like 15 minutes of running Cinebench for the back to heat up sufficiently.
