There are now also laptops with Xeon processors.
Apple will say goodbye to the intel processors anyway. If you read the comparison tests between the intels and the new M1 …
As far as I know, Apple's Xeons are only installed in the Mac pro.
But why were they built into the whole MBP all the years and why never the better XEON
Because Xeon processors are built for servers and have no graphics units. It's totally pointless in a laptop.
MBP sometimes have extra graphic units. And other laptops also have XEON
Integrated graphics unit: Relatively weak and sufficient for everyday use, but energy-saving.
Dedicated GPU: powerful but eats electricity without end.
As soon as you turn on the dedicated GPU in your laptop, the battery life is halved. Since this is not needed in most cases, a CPU with a graphics unit is better used.
In addition, the big Xeons consume so much electricity and generate so much heat that they don't even fit in a laptop.
Intel tore apart the latest M1 in the tests.

OK.

Xeons are mostly better at multi-core applications, but not as good at single-core. For the average consumer, however, the single-core performance is more important. In addition, Apple already had problems keeping the core processors cool, for a larger Xeon you would need a decent cooling system, but this goes against the grain of Apple, they want to build fancy, thin laptops.
At Apple, performance was often secondary.
