M1 Macs v Intel Macs v AMD 4800U v intel 1165G7 Speed Test + Wifi 6 v 5 - Boot Wake Resume + Restart

Right tell the other champs now, I'm using the microphone on the MacBook Air. Let me know what it sounds like, but we're going to do. First, a speed test between Wi-Fi five and Wi-Fi six, so the last generation Wi-Fi five on the MacBook Pro 16, which is on the right and on the left, the m1 mac, and it is the m1 mac air. So I'm just going to your know, drag a file from my NAS simultaneously on both of them and see what happens connected to the same Wi-Fi. I do have Wi-Fi six, of course. Now I've done lots of benchmarks.

Comparing to you know the latest AMD chips, the latest intel chips- and you know comparing pro to air et cetera, but this time we're just going to do speed tests sort of you know everyday sort of usage, boot break and all this sort of stuff. So when I grab the two files and boom it initiates fast on the Wi-Fi six right straight away, it's hitting that NAS, and it's pulling down. You would have sawed that the MacBook Pro on the right. It took a longer time to initiate the download. Now Wi-Fi 6 has better latency.

It's that's one of its main points. It's going to give you better battery life as long as you're, using Wi-Fi 6 networks, of course, and faster transfer speeds. Now this was a bit of a failed test, because I think my NAS was choking and needed update. So what I'm going to do? Is I'm going to do this test again and download one at a time and just time it? So let's do that, but you did see that the Wi-Fi 6 initiated first. Okay, so now we're on the intel mac- and this is the MacBook Pro 16, and I'm going to grab this sort of three gigabyte files, and I'm going to drag it to the desktop coming from my NAS, and I've got to say, even though this is Wi-Fi five that is superfast we're getting over 120 megabytes per second download.

That is like cable speed. If you connected an Ethernet cable, that is the same sort of speed there wow, and you can see there- it's just chewing through it. It's actually quite fast. Considering that NASA only has two hard drives, I do have two NAS's. This is a Synology one, that's probably my actual Wi-Fi six routers.

How fast that is, you probably won't get those speeds, but there you go 31. Well, let's say 32 seconds, 31.98, so 32 seconds. Now, let's start with Wi-Fi six. Now you may note here that I'm actually using the stopwatch from iOS. So I couldn't do that.

Obviously, on the intel mac and look at this thing fly 127 megabytes per second wolf. This thing is absolutely flying and yeah. I expect it to be faster. How much faster I don't know, because pretty much the other one was saturating. What Ethernet can do anyway and that's the bottleneck here- is basically my network, my Ethernet network.

I do have 10gb on other files, but boom there. You go three seconds different from a three gigabyte file, so you can imagine how this scales say. For example, you had a 50 gig file, it's three seconds for each three gig, so yeah Wi-Fi six baby. That's what I'm talking about now, let's get into some other sort of you know. Every day, sort of speed tests right tell you how their chance sol Goodman here now, let's do a shootout between the latest silicon from all the vendors here so AMD 4800u, that's on the left on the right.

We have the XPS 13 with the 1165 g7 and then, of course, the m1 mac in the middle here. So, let's see which one boots faster and, as you can see, AMD for the win AMD boots fast now, there's one thing you need to know about this AMD: is it's not encrypted, so you know compared to the mac that is encrypted and actually that XPS is encrypted too. That's, probably why it boots faster. Now, let's wake them up from a sleep state. Now, obviously, I've only got two hands, so I'm only going to do two at a time, and then we'll see which one's faster, of course I'll do the mac in all of these, and let's have a look here and lift them up and by the way stay tuned.

I've got a lot more videos that come on this m1 max and comparing them to PCs, etc. I have the 16 gig model. Coming in, I have videos on that and there you go look at that. How quick does that mac resume like as soon as you lift that lid it is on it is on I mean that AMD ain't slow and I have to say when it comes to the AMD. I guess it's down to the vendor how fast the boots are not, but certainly in this case it's not the fastest resuming thing, but when it comes to the XPS 13, this is Eve certified.

So that means it should wake and resume really fast, and it really is fast like it's one of the best like PC's you're going to get, and this XPS 13 is so hard. It doesn't have a lip, but let's lift them, and you can see how quick it was, but the m1 was faster and it's so hard to lift. I cannot do that with one hand, it needs a lip, so I can get under the lid, and it also needs to be able to be left with one hand. I will forgive it when you have a two in one, because you need a stiff hinge. You don't want it to be too loose.

You know what I mean. So let's do that again, let's see which one wakes up quicker and boom the mac straight away wakes up as soon as you open that lid, the mac wakes up and with the XPS 13 or the 1165 g7, it's woken up by the time you have it open, but the mac as soon as you lift it. It opens they both got good resume time or wake up times but yeah whatever. So, let's just do a little speed test here, both native chrome boom, let's see which one opens first and as you can see, it's on the XPS 13 or 1165 g7 that is native, that app. So let's go to the native browser and boom have a look at that.

Now have a look at safari that loads so fast, and I have no idea why that took so long to load on the intel system there that edge browser they're both connected to Wi-Fi six, five gigahertz as well. So now, let's open epic games, and this will be very interesting. This is not native to the mac okay, but I reckon the mac boots up stuff so fast that I don't think it even matters when it's native, we saw chrome that was actually native, was slow. I just blame that on Google, but now, let's open the epic store on both of them boom, look how quickly it opened on the mac, all right. That is amazing.

It's not even native all right! So now, let's get to intel MacBook Pro 13, and I'm comparing it to the MacBook Air. If I didn't actually mention that it is an Mac, they're both the same virtually, but let's do a restart see which one boots quicker. Now that intel MacBook Pro 13 has been in use for six months, it's been upgraded to Big Sur and not a fresh installation. So you can see here it lags when it restarts, because you know it's probably closing a lot of apps that you know run day to day, but even though a lag there, shutting down it booted up quicker, at least to the login screen. Now, once you actually type in your password, etc.

, and then you finish off the boot, so it loads the encrypted volume. This is where the m1 max fly. You can see. I had a head start with the intel mac, but watch this. You saw how much longer the intel took there.

It had a huge head start and the m1 nearly caught it there. So the loading of the encrypted volume yeah, that's quick, but the actual booting is a little slower. It seems even compared to the 16 inch as you'll see in a sec but anyway. So now, let's open safari on both of them here and safari is native to both of them, but remember that intel system on the right has been in use for a while. You can see there.

The m1 is obviously faster. Now, let's load apple, TV and yeah, it looks like that was pretty even there that's interesting. Now, let's get the big 16 inches. So first, let's do a couple of speed tests. This MacBook Pro 16 has a fresh installation of Big Sur, so it should be close up.

Boom m1 is faster, but only slightly faster, so this is more even right. Brand new operating system on both of them both knew that MacBook, pro 16 hasn't got six months of clutter and craft. So it should be more even here. Let's just do the tabs here and see how quickly they fire out just boom boom boom they're like a machine gun on both of them, and actually they load quite quick as well. Now, let's open photos that was very similar Apple TV.

Let's open that wow! Let's see here, Wi-Fi six. I think the app loaded the same time, but just the connection of the Wi-Fi six. So now, let's just open final cut, and we'll see what happens here native on both of them. I have run it on the intel system, so the MacBook Pro 16 has been run before it's not the first time and look at that. The m1 just destroyed there, and it's even got a project.

So that's fast that is fast, so bend the calendar here. Let's do it there. You go m1 faster there by a hair, not by much alright. So I've shot both of them down now and now. Let's do a boot test all right, fresh installations on both of them boom wolf.

There we go now, let's see which one boots the intel boots. Really quick. Look at that to the login screen. This is the part of the m1 that takes a long time now. This is not fair.

Now, so, what's going to happen, is I'm going to enter the password on both of them and then the m1 is going to win, but remember the intel had to wait awhile before the m1 even got to this stage, so I don't think there's much difference in booting or restarting between these m1s and the intel's when you work out the whole time from getting to the login screen and even booting this stuff all difference, but it's definitely different in wake times and there's definitely a difference in loading uptimes. One thing look at that mac: it keeps on dimming the screen all the time now I set it to full screen brightness all the time, but every time I log in again it just goes to dim. I don't know why we'll just quickly load safari there and, as you can see, the m1 wins there. Now, let's see resuming of closing both up here, and then we're going to resume, see which one loads quicker oh boom. Look at that m1.

How fast it is that is fast that is so fast. I don't even have to slow that down or anything you saw how fast it is so anyway, more to come guys catch you next one tally.
