The direct predecessor with Intel i5 CPU was a couple of degrees warmer. This means you can comfortable put the new MBP 13 M1 on your lap without any concerns. It is also very cool during everyday tasks. The speakers are identical to the previous model and our audio analysis also shows pretty much the exact values. Apple's stereo speakers are still among the best in the notebook segment. The power consumption improved compared to the predecessor and the already very low idle values are even better this time.
The MacBook Air M1 is a bit more efficient, but it also has a slightly darker screen. We can measure up to Despite the high fan noise, the MacBook Pro 13 eventually has to reduce the performance a bit. The included 61W power adapter is completely sufficient and still has enough headroom to charge the battery under load. The keyboard illumination is also very efficient.
While we can see jumps of up to 2W on some Windows laptops, the highest keyboard illumination on the MBP 13 only increases the consumption by 0. The battery capacity did not change The MacBook Air M1 with the smaller battery Overall, these are excellent results.
We can keep the verdict about the new MacBook Pro 13 with the M1 processor pretty short: It builds on the strengths of the previous iterations and the new processor improves some aspects like the performance, the fan noise in everyday scenarios or longer battery runtime. However, there are still some drawbacks like the limited number of ports or the slow Wi-Fi 6 transfer speeds. All in all, it is still one of the best mobile devices on the market. The problem is the comparison with the new MacBook Air.
Thanks to the M1 update, the Air is now much more powerful than before, and you cannot really notice a difference between the two devices in practice. The MacBook Pro 13 only benefits from its fan under sustained workloads, but we do not think this is really an important aspect for the target audience. The Air also closed the gap when it comes to the display.
It is still a bit darker than the Pro vs. Both devices support the same connectivity features. The battery runtime is better on the Pro thanks to the bigger battery, but it is also heavier in return. However, every user has to decide whether this is a positive or negative aspect. To be honest, even after a couple of years, the Touch Bar is still just a gimmick most of the time and basic actions like adjusting of the display brightness or speaker volume usually requires more inputs.
Personally, we would prefer the physical F keys of the MacBook Air. The MacBook Pro 13 benefits heavily from the new M1 processor and it is certainly one of the best subnotebooks you can get. Compared to the new MacBook Air, however, we miss the "Pro" features.
Both models are extremely close in everyday usage scenarios, so we would definitely prefer the less expensive MacBook Air. All in all, the new MacBook Pro 13 M1 seems to be filler product that does not make much sense. We cannot find any real arguments to prefer the Pro over the new Air. We suspect Apple will eventually discontinue the entry-level MacBook Pro 13 in the not-too-distant future and only offer a single and more expensive MacBook Pro 13 or maybe MacBook Pro 14 with a more powerful M1X processor.
The performance is much higher than before, but can it justify the higher price compared to the MacBook Air? And are there any other differences? Apple M1 8 x 2. Note: The manufacturer may use components from different suppliers including display panels, drives or memory sticks with similar specifications.
