But understandably, those who need both Windows and Mac are holding off until native support for Windows 11 via Bootcamp is added. The worst-case scenario is it'll run precisely at the performance/battery life ratio as the old Intel Mac. Outside of the lack of native support for Windows, the M1 line of Macs is generally a giant leap forward in performance and battery life for the vast majority of workflows. Or for the gamer who wants to have a single laptop for work and play, but needs Windows due to the lack of games on the Mac, let alone ones optimized for the M1 chip.Īnd for some, the lack of Windows availability on the new Apple Silicon Macs is the reason they're holding back on upgrading from their older Macs to a new one. Apple plans to release a new MacBook Air with a larger 15-inch display in April, according to display industry analyst Ross Young. A full version of Windows through Bootcamp is better for those who need to run Windows for several hours on end a few days a week, with more intensive applications open, potentially for work. The performance won't be outstanding, and battery life will likely take a hit, but it does work. Running something like Parallels is excellent in a pinch for lightweight applications that might not be available on macOS.
