Most end-users view Apple in the same vein as Surface in terms of quality, features, and performance, so I got the request, and there is no better way to find out than to evaluate the devices head-to-head. Surface is the most closely positioned to Apple with its premium-only device lines for the Windows notebook ecosystem. I have spent much time evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of M1 compared to its competitors like Intel and its ecosystem, but one comparison I received requests on was comparing the Microsoft Surface devices against Apple's M1 MacBooks. I then followed it up with a AAA gaming review and finally an Intel Evo PC vs. I published an out-of-the-gate review of the M1 MacBook last November using my productivity tools.

Microsoft Notebook Full Office Ribbon

There isn't a full-proof way to verify that your go-to apps will work on an M1 MacBook. A formalized list of functioning applications would help a lot, but Apple hasn't provided anything like this. OneNote for Mac features a full Office ribbon interface that can be permanently shown, or hidden until.What I worry about is not fully knowing what applications will work and which won't. OneNote for Mac is part of Office 2019 and Microsoft 365, but it can also be downloaded from the Mac App Store and used independently on any Mac with a 64-bit processor running macOS 10.13 or later.

Theoretically, one can run iOS apps on the M1 MacBook. You will need to evaluate if the apps that fit your use case are available on M1. If you are considering an M1 MacBook, it may be worth your time to look at the list of applications that are not currently supported here.

I use different webcams, gaming headphones, and portable SSDs, and I have no idea what software is supported and what isn't with M1. Sadly, the Logitech G305 is a USB-A mouse that works on my Surface Book 3 but won't work on the MacBook Pro without a USB-A to USB-C adapter. Office 2011 for Mac.In terms of peripherals, I tested one of my favorite mouses, the Logitech G305. I will say I do enjoy the instant connection to my iPhone and the easy transition to Apple Music and the podcast app on the MacBook Air.James Gordon is a Microsoft MVP for Macintosh, creator of the InsertPicture add-in for Mac PowerPoint, and an Office trainer. Check to make sure your apps are available on the new Macs. Several applications are not available in the Apple App store like BofA, Gmail, Instagram, and Facebook, to name a few, so in my opinion, it mutes the benefit of running iOS apps.

If I would have bought that peripheral specifically for pairing with my MacBook, it would have been a waste of money due to compatibility issues. When I first reviewed the M1 Macs, I had problems with Logitech's webcam software the issue is now fixed. This issue rendered the fingerprint security useless on the drive. The application was supported on Mac, but it didn't work.

For Windows PCs, Steam on Windows houses the world's most popular games and makes it exceptionally easy for users to download games and play them on its devices. M1 plays supported AAA games surprisingly well for an ultrathin machine. The issue that I have with M1 isn't the raw benchmark performance but instead the game combability. But unfortunately does not include peripherals.I have tested M1's ability to play AAA games extensively. The best applications list I have found is here. Now, there is no official Apple list.

The best list of supported and unsupported games that I have found is here. Consider that if you're purchasing a Mac for gaming. Even with those games considered, there isn't nearly as much support for macOS games when compared to what is available for Windows. There are a good number of popular games available for macOS like Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Dota 2, Sid Meier's: Civ VI, Total War: WARHAMMER II, Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor, Fortnite, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, World of Warcraft, and Minecraft to name a few. Games like PUBG, Cyberpunk 2077, Tom Clancy Rainbow Six Siege, Apex Legends, Call of Duty Warzone, and Doom Eternal are not available for macOS, a bummer. There are many compatibility issues, and a lot of the most popular games aren't available on Mac which is a shame considering how well M1 graphics perform.

It is responsive to the touch, whether using my fingertip or using the optional Surface Pen. The touchscreen on the Surface Laptop 3 performs in all the ways that I needed a touch screen to function. While the MacBook Air lacks a touch screen, the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 continues the Surface legacy of high-quality touch screens across its devices. I have hypothesized that this is likely because the company doesn't want to eat into its iPad sales, and early on, there was a thickness penalty.

Both displays are high quality.Color doesn't matter as much to me on a system but having options is always nice. The MacBook Air M1 lacking a touchscreen isn't because Apple lacks the technology to implement it, but rather a business decision that I tend to disagree with and something that potential customers must overlook. The high-resolution touchscreen for me is an excellent value add for my use case. The aspect ratio boils down to increased screen visibility on the Surface Laptop 3 when compared to the MacBook Air due to 13.5вЂќ size and 3:2 ratio. If you want Apple touch and a pen, then get an iPad.Another display consideration is that the Surface Laptop 3 comes in a 3:2 aspect ratio compared to the 16:10 aspect ratio of the MacBook Air. I believe some users really appreciate pen for navigating even on Laptop, especially customers with accessibility needs that may use both touch and pen for improved screen interaction/manipulation.While the MacBook Air doesn't offer a touch screen, this is something the Surface Laptop 3 offers, and it performs well.

Two of the color are similar (Silver and Gray), and when you consider the flashy and unique colors of Sandstone and Cobalt Blue that Surface offers, I like to have more differentiated color options. It seems that Apple took more of a reserved approach with its color waves on the MacBook Air. My MacBook Air M1 came in the Space Gray option, which I enjoyed. The Platinum color exudes a highly premium look and feel, and I have always preferred it on my Surface devices.There are also three color options available for the MacBook Air M1, including Space Gray, Gold, and Silver. Platinum is known as the iconic Surface color wave.

Both ports are Thunderbolt compatible, and the system additionally has a 3.5mm headphone jack. The MacBook Air comes with two ports, with one dedicated to power, meaning I really only have one open port. I use many peripherals and an external display to get maximum productivity out of a notebook. If you're looking for useable performance in ideal lighting, either camera will work for photos and video conferencing.Ports- Surface Laptop 3 (honorable mention for MBA with Thunderbolt)Ports and types of ports matter to me as an analyst and I think most users, especially pros.

When I use a notebook in what I call вЂњdesktop-modeвЂќ, I often use two 15'- 17вЂќ external displays to improve my productivity. I rigged more external displays with a 3 rd party DisplayLink driver on the M1, but itвЂ™s not supported by Apple and doesnвЂ™t support all the features a native display adapter down. One problem I did run across while testing is that M1 only supports one external display natively. When you consider that Thunderbolt uses the same port as USB-C, there are no disadvantages to equipping a Thunderbolt system but cost.The MacBook will require an external adapter for my use case, and I suspect that will be an issue for many users. The Surface Laptop 3 comes with USB-C, capable of transferring data at 20Gbps, while Thunderbolt can transfer data 2x faster at 40Gbps.
