Pavel Jelic Apple computers with Apple Silicon chips have been here with us for almost a whole year. The fact that the Californian giant was working on its own chips for Macs was known for several years in advance, but for the first time and officially, Apple announced them a year ago at the WWDC20 conference. Apple introduced the first Apple computers with an Apple Silicon chip, namely the M1, a few months later, specifically in November of last year. In that time, Apple Silicon has proven to be exactly the colorful future we've all been waiting for. So ditch the Intel processors and let's look together at 10 reasons why you should use a Mac with Apple Silicon for business.

One chip to rule them all…
As mentioned above, at the moment Apple Silicon's portfolio of chips only includes the M1 chip. This is the very first generation of the M-series chip - even so, it is incredibly powerful and, above all, economical. The M1 has been with us for almost a year now, and soon we should see the introduction of the new generation, along with the new Apple computers, which should receive a complete redesign. The M1 chip is completely designed by Apple itself to work as well as possible with macOS and Apple hardware.
…to everyone really
And we're not kidding. The M1 chip is unbeatable in terms of performance in the same category. Specifically, Apple states that the MacBook Air is currently up to 3,5 times faster than when it had Intel processors. After the release of the new MacBook Air with the M1 chip, which comes out in the basic configuration for less than 30 thousand crowns, information appeared that they should be more powerful than the high-end 16″ MacBook Pro with an Intel processor, which costs more than 100 thousand crowns . And after some time it turned out that this was not a mistake. So we are just looking forward to Apple introducing the new generation of its Apple Silicon chips.

Perfect battery life
Everyone can have powerful processors, that goes without saying. But what is the use of such a processor when it becomes central heating for the entire block of flats under load. However, Apple Silicon chips are not satisfied with compromises, so they are powerful, but at the same time very economical. And thanks to the economy, MacBooks with the M1 can last a really long time on a single charge. Apple states that the MacBook Air with M1 lasts up to 18 hours under ideal conditions, according to our test in the editorial office, the real endurance when streaming a movie and at full brightness is around 10 hours. Even so, the endurance cannot be compared with older MacBooks.

Mac can do it in IT. Even outside of IT.
It doesn't matter whether you decide to use Apple computers in the information technology segment or anywhere else. In all cases, you can be sure that you will be more than satisfied. In large companies, all Macs and MacBooks can be set up with just a few clicks. And if a company decides to switch from Windows to macOS, you can be sure that everything will go smoothly, thanks to special tools that will facilitate the transition. Use these tools to transfer all data from your old device to your Mac quickly and easily. In addition, the Mac hardware is very reliable, so it will definitely not let you down.
Mac comes out cheaper
We're not going to lie - the initial investment in your first Mac can be quite high, even though you get a really powerful and economical piece of hardware. Classic computers can therefore be cheaper, but when purchasing a computer you must expect that it will last you several years. With a Mac, you can be sure that it will last many times longer than a classic computer. Apple also supports many years old Macs and, moreover, builds the software hand in hand with the hardware, which results in perfect performance and reliability. Apple states that after three years, a Mac can save you up to 18 crowns thanks to its reliability and other aspects.

The most innovative companies use Macs
If you look at any of the world's most innovative companies, it is highly likely that they will be using Apple computers. From time to time, photos of prominent employees of competing companies using Apple devices even appear on the Internet, which in itself says a lot. Apple reports that up to 84% of the world's largest innovative companies use Apple computers. The management of these companies, as well as the employees, report that they are more than satisfied with the machines from Apple. Companies such as Salesforce, SAP and Target use Macs.

It supports all applications
A few years ago, some individuals might have discouraged you from buying a Mac because the most used applications were not available on it. The truth is that some time ago, macOS was not so widespread, so some developers decided not to bring their applications to the apple platform. However, with the passage of time and the expansion of macOS, developers have changed their minds in most cases. This means that most of the most used applications are currently available on Mac - and not only. And if you come across an application that is not available on Mac, you can be sure that you will find a suitable alternative, often much better.
Safety first
Apple computers are the most secure computers in the world. Overall security is taken care of by the T2 chip, which provides security features such as encrypted storage, secure boot, improved image signal processing, and Touch ID data security. This simply means that no one can get into your Mac, even if the device is stolen. All data is, of course, encrypted, and the device is then protected by an activation lock, similar to, for example, an iPhone or iPad. In addition, Touch ID can be used to easily log into the system, or to pay on the Internet or to confirm various actions.

Mac and iPhone. A perfect two.
If you decide to get a Mac, you should know that you will get the best out of it if you also get an iPhone. This is not to say that it is impossible to use a Mac without an iPhone, of course you can. However, it should be noted that you will be missing out on countless great features. We can mention, for example, synchronization via iCloud - this means that whatever you do on your Mac, you can continue it on your iPhone (and vice versa). These are, for example, open panels in Safari, notes, reminders and everything else. What you have on your Mac, you also have on your iPhone thanks to iCloud. For example, you can use copying across devices, you can handle calls directly on the Mac, and if you have an iPad, it can be used to extend the Mac's screen.

The initial investment may be a bit larger, but it will pay you back in a few years - and you'll save even more on top of that.

Give your employees the opportunity to try Apple products and you can be sure that they will be satisfied and most importantly productive, which is very important.
Honestly, neither reason is a big enough argument for me to use a Mac at work, and the software we use isn't compatible with iOS.
What if I'm a professional gamer and streamer, my mac probably sucks, right?
I see, I'm a lempl too.
I have an MB Air with M1 and 16gb RAM at home. The purchase price is OK for me when I compare it with concretion. In native performance for PHP, MySQL surpassed almost everything and with perfect battery life. However, where it falls behind is docker, which is problematic on the Mac in general. Too bad I need docker daily, otherwise I could keep…
