Maybe you haven't used sufficiently new AMD laptops. Because my Ryzen 5800H and 6800H laptops (16 and 14 inch) can easily last a day despite using TSMC 7nm instead the much more efficient 5nm process that Apple has been enjoying.

Macbooks are fantastic but there is no magic. Manufacturing is extremely important

I have a 5800h laptop and 3-4 hours pails to the 8-10 hours I’m getting on the MacBook for the same workload.

No arguments there. The M1/2 last longer. However, this largely due to TSMC 5nm node. The Ryzen 7800u will close the gap for sure
