I don't understand the difference, I want to buy one of the 2 laptops. For studying
The first has a different processor.
The older one has a conventional i5 from Intel based on X86, the new M1 from Apple uses ARM and is significantly more powerful and efficient. This gives you more power and a greatly improved battery life.
The one with M1 is the much better choice.
Thank you! M1 is bought adnn
Is 256 GB enough?
That is individual.
How much do you save? Note, however, that you can't expand the memory. However, external storage and cloud storage are possible.
If you don't load huge programs on it, that should be enough.
Just a few pictures, music and university files such as lecture notes (PDF) and Word and Power Point.
Definitely go to the M1 has a lot more power
it is always very calm and does not overheat and will get updates for many years to come
