Vratislav Holub Chips from the Apple Silicon family are characterized not only by high performance, but also by low energy consumption. In this direction, the newly introduced M1 Pro and M1 Max chips, which will be aimed at professional users, should not be an exception. MacBook Pros with unimaginable performance. But how do these innovations fare in terms of durability compared to the previous generation? This is exactly what we will shed light on together in this article.

Pavel Jelic As we mentioned above, the Cupertino giant is going to use completely new, professional Apple Silicon chips called M14 Pro and M16 Max in the new 1″ and 1″ MacBook Pros. At the same time, this makes these laptops the most powerful portable devices in Apple's history. But a tricky question arises. Will such a drastic increase in performance have any major effect on battery life, as is the case with virtually all devices? Apple already emphasized the efficiency of its chips during the presentation itself. In the case of both models, compared to 8-core processors in competing laptops, chips from the Apple company should require 70% less power. In any case, the question remains whether these numbers are actually real.
If we look at the information known so far, we will find that the 16″ MacBook Pro should offer 21 hours of video playback per charge, i.e. 10 hours more than its predecessor, while in the case of the 14″ MacBook Pro it is 17 hours of video playback, which then takes 7 hours more than its predecessor. At least that's what the official documentation says. But there is one catch. These numbers compare MacBook Pros against their Intel-powered predecessors. The 14″ MacBook Pro actually loses 13 hours to its older sibling compared to the 1″ variant from last year, which is fitted with an M3 chip. The 13″ MacBook Pro with the M1 chip can handle 20 hours of video playback.

However, we should not forget that these are only some kind of "marketing" numbers that do not always correspond completely with reality. For more accurate information, we will have to wait until the new Macs reach people.
