And now it's Apple's turn to fuck up. The M2 isn't even 20% faster than the M1, it's like a Skylake situation all over again.
> Apple bet big on power sipping performance and it’s paid off.
Apple bet big on the 5nm node (bought the exclusive rights to use it) and it paid off. Your marketing copywriting doesn't mean anything if you don't back it up with evidence.
> They’re different business models. Surely you see that?
They both make hardware. Shouldn't they both get held to the same standards, to encourage healthy competition? They certainly have the financial means to do it.
I think your technical perspective on this situation is horribly maligned, you should spend more time researching the technologies Apple used rather than repeating the words from their announcement event.
