in real world application is actually faster? but the pricing is really killing the intel based pc.
hope M1 Mini price also going down, can use as set top box for TV

for set top box more recommended to buy AppleTV or any certified Google TV/Android TV

I hv apple tv and google chromecast. Thru out the year i also use minix player.
I prefer apple tv bcoz smoothest experience and integration with other apple product especially iPhone (can use as remote).
Google chromecast getting slower each day.

Agreed. I also use my AppleTV to mirror my iPhone or Mac. Guess im still stuck in their eco system

ahh thanks, glad that i ordered the 16GB instead of impulse buying from the shops  biggrin.gif
my MBP 16 with the full suite office, 4 browsers (safari/safari tech preview/chrome/FF) running and some other apps running, memory pressure graph stays yellow, and fans seldom kick in even during zoom/google meet calls

16GB should be the minimum nowadays. in case of MBA or MBP, more RAM can also increase battery life since it wont use SSD swap often.
