Because the benchmarks are meaningless piles of numbers that are irrelevant to day to day using of a laptop. I want to hear from a human not robot. Benchmarks have been and will be gamed. Hopefully human reviewers like Marques Brownlee and Just Josh Tech are less easily gamed.

Just Josh Tech does exactly that. They perform both synthetic benchmarks and real world benchmarks including an office productivity test involving realistic screen brightness (where the Framework 13 Pro beat any MacBook with an M5 or M4 chip).

Marques’ Framework 13 Pro review was much more of a layperson’s review with a focus on overall user experience.

Because the reviews from “random” people have benchmarks.

See, this is the problem, Mac enthusiasts refuse to do research, even when people point them in the right direction.
