Apple is also comparing the new MacBook Air M3 to the 7th generation Microsoft Surface Laptop, claiming that it is 40% faster than the Copilot+ PC in terms of graphics performance and 25% faster for web browsing.
The comparison involves a MacBook Air M3 with 16GB of RAM, an 8-core CPU and a 10-core GPU, and a 7th-generation Surface Laptop with a 12-core Snapdragon X Elite processor and 16GB of RAM.
It should be noted that the new Intel Lunar Lake laptops and Strix Point products are also included in the Copilot+ PC programme. Intel promises significant performance improvements, particularly in the area of artificial intelligence. Therefore, a final conclusion about the advantages of the MacBook Air M3 can only be made after a comparison with these latest Copilot+ PCs.
