However, if you're coming from, say, a 2015 or later mac that's perfectly capable and takes the latest OS.Does M1 make that much sense? That was a total no-brainer upgrade, for me. Get the re-sale value while it still has it.

It was also getting to the point where an upgrade was really needed as relying on 10 year old hardware doesn't feel good. That's a huge upgrade in single core performance, multicore performance, memory speeds, hard drive speeds, external bus speeds, and power consumption, and it's portable.and there's something like 20 hours battery life!? I upgraded from a Mac Pro 5,1 12 core to a MacBook Air M1. Whether M1 makes sense for you, right now, depends on a fair few things.
