But at what point does it even matter that you have the fastest/"Best" anything?
For example, if your car can do 200 MPH does it really matter if someone else's can do 210?
Both examples are under ideal conditions anyway, I'm sure.

It doesn’t matter for me. T-Mobile drop the the speed after 50gb usage for “unlimited data plan” thinking 5g all the way.

False.

Who cares? It literally makes zero difference to anything. There is exactly zero use cases where maximum 5g speed is necessary when using a phone.

Your MacBook Pro has a much larger battery as well.

MacWorld is one of the biggest sites on the web for Apple news, so this shouldn't come as a shock. The study was done by Ookla, which has no affiliation with Apple or MacWorld.

5G suuuuuuucks. I feel like it’s worse than 4GLTE.

Your MacBook doesn’t have a 5G modem in it sucking down power. You might not realize it but cellular modems use a lot of power.
And your MacBook has a much bigger battery.

I get 5g everywhere nowadays (and I travel) except when in the mountains or on a long stretch of highway.

I mean if that was true then sure, but it’s faster in JavaScript than basically any desktop CPU, so just no. Look up it’s JavaScript benchmarks if you don’t believe me

Reply to comment by theskyiscool in USB-C will be mandatory for all smart devices sold in India by Sam1515024
Well, we've somewhat reached a point where that connector will suffice. Today you can easily support 40+ gigabits/ second of data transfer which includes the capability for high-refresh rate, high-resolution, displays. All while supporting over 200W of power delivery.
Now, you device today might not support that. But you can, today, with some types of USB-C.
Its hard to come up with something better at this point. The connector is small, bidirectional, and strong.

M1 has a better power management. My MacBook Pro goes days without charging and trust me, I use it. I want 3-4 days between charges. Not nightly. Pipe dream I know, but a man can dream. I’d be quite happy with usb c.

I’ll agree on USB-C, but why would it need to have the M1 chip? What performance upside is that going to give you that wouldn’t be more than offset by the massively increased power consumption?

Wow, can't wait to use it on rare occasion I'm standing 50cm from the 5g tower!

Doesn't matter when JavaScript speeds are slower than even Android phones from years ago so your websites will load slower anyway.
