It will depend on the developers
The M1 now has four high-performance cores with 12 megabytes of Level 2 cache, which should ensure maximum performance. Four more ARM processors are provided for power saving tasks. Apple has reduced multiple chips to a single system that can access shared memory. The architecture ensures that only 25% of the electricity is consumed during peak performance, when the device is most needed. So the battery should last much longer.
But even with the M1, a lot will depend on how developers deal with the fact that they can now publish mature, high-performance programs for ARM processors. All Apple’s own apps are available at first, Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop should follow relatively quickly after startup. To reduce user difficulties when switching, Apple has incorporated Rosetta 2, an emulation layer that can also run programs that have been developed for x86 processors. Of course, it will only show in practice how well this works.
It remains to be seen if the end of the x86 era has actually been announced. But in addition to Apple, Amazon is also in the process of heavily converting its cloud, and these two players together have huge market shares with developers and if one believes Wang’s theory, at least the course has now been set. for this.
