    A lot of power promised - and delivered: Although only a part of the software has been adapted to the new M1 processor, it provides a powerful speed boost: the MacBook Air is now a real sprinter, the small 13-inch Pro model is easily on a par with the 16-inch top model. The Mac mini's lower score is not due to its speed, but to its meagre equipment.
