On battery life? Its hard to say.

On things like GPU and LLM performance, I'd say they already have, and often at significantly lower prices.

People seem to have taken "Apple made a very performant laptop" and factored it down to "the M1/2 series of chips beats everything every time" - which is obviously not the case.

For the particular use case of "a laptop on battery that doesn't die in ten minutes" Apple is decently far ahead. But everything else you can easily beat it if you make different trade-offs.
