Hi Charles,

I'm sorry if you didn't enjoy this article. My intention is never to make a clickbaity title that causes you to read the whole article without learning anything.

What I was trying to convey throughout this article was that Apple's M1 chip has not only an insane amount of performance and efficiency, but the chip hasn't significantly raised the prices of their devices whatsoever. Although there are undoubtedly countless other devices that still compete with all the products Apple has rolled out, the M1 offers a great recipe for ensuring future success for both their products and the company.

As Intel continues to fall behind, and companies are still hesitant to using AMD in their laptops, Apple’s M1 chip sort of puts them in a league of their own right now (as far as performance and efficiency go). And as Apple continues to roll out new products, the rest of the hardware/design should be brought up to date as well. Once this presumably happens, the argument for getting an M1 laptop or PC will only get stronger.

I connected the M1 chip to Tesla because they went years upon years with little to no competition. They were the first modern-day company to prove that an affordable electric car with great range and astounding performance for the masses was possible. When other companies were shocked by how well Tesla began selling their cars, they scrambled to catch up, much like how other tech companies will have to now catch up to Apple’s M1 chip.

Even with the added competition, Tesla still owns 79% of the EV market (according to electrek.co). And all of these companies’ first or second attempts at an electric vehicle still can’t meet Tesla’s balance of range, efficiency, performance, and price. So while no, neither Tesla nor Apple own 90+% of any market (which is practically impossible when you’re talking about cars and technology), Tesla still owns a vast majority. Apple, on the other hand, is continuously becoming a bigger player in the laptop and PC industry, and the introduction of the M1 chip should help aid this growth.

I understand that not everyone would put an M1 Apple device at the top of their shopping list, and the same can be said for Tesla. But as of right now, Apple has set themselves up for future success with the introduction of their M1 chip, and the competition can’t afford to fall behind any more than they already have.
