They are good but wait until M1X drops. That should be later this year hopefully. Most people were hoping for one at WWDC this year.

Kinda, at that price point. It depends on what you need to do with them. Lol for x86 workflows but good for servers work and such.

Apple has been trolling the press and leakers about their release being imminent, but itll probably be another 5 months now.

Ive been waiting to buy one and my laptop died last week. So now Im jaded enough to start questioning if they will ever exist.

Nice OS for sure. I'm sure it has many good sides. It could be for you.

I have an M1 Air. It's fantastic. It never gets hot, even though it doesn't have a fan. Everything opens instantly. It even comes out of sleep mode instantly. But you definitely want to wait for the M1X if you can afford to. But if you can't the M1 Air or Pro will do you fine depending on what work you do. Just keep in mind that Boot Camp no longer works, so you will have to run Windows through a virtual machine if you want to do that.

It's running on an ARM CPU now, so it can't run x86 operating systems without emulation. Running x86 Windows apps through emulation is getting much better now though. But research what it can and can't do if it's important to you.

Good but overpriced. I bought one an M1 Air a few months ago and I really enjoy it.

M1 Air is arguably the best laptop at its price point and class unless you do stuff that heavily relies on x86 or Windows.

But M1x is supposed to come this half of the year so it's better to wait for that.

i can get an open box MBP M1 at best buy for like $950 pre tax. If that doesn't work out as in it looks bad, I just get a brand new 512gb SSD M1 MBP for the same price point as the 256, $200 isn't gonna break the bank for me

The M1x might solve the issues like 16gb max RAM and 1 external display limit, but if you don't need those you can get one if you'd like.
