I have both T480 and M1Pro 14", and let me tell you once you go Mac, you don't want to go back. I am keeping the T480 for some Linux/Windows workloads, but that is it. MBP is just better in every regard. And even though I have maxed out batteries (plural) with 98% health on '480, MBP has twice the battery life.
- rickette 4y agoExactly, build quality and noise levels of mac are so much better. Not to mention the OS.
- code-blooded 4y agoBecause these are not exactly comparable. I have Thinkpad X1 Carbon which is more comparable and I'm easily getting 8+hrs of battery life. But the real benefit is that it runs Linux. It's just a more productive environment for a power user. Docker uses little CPU, tools are the same as on my server, desktop environment is actually better and much more configurable. Last but not least I'm not supporting a walled garden, which is a deal breaker for me in the first place.
