At this point it's also a question of operating system, because Asahi Linux is not ready for general usage, so to get a good experience on an Apple Silicon Macbook you need to be running MacOS still. The performance and battery life will blow the X1 Yoga out of the water I believe, and the Mac build quality is superb, but until Asahi gets better, you'll be a bit restricted.

Good news is, the drivers from Asahi are also slowly making their way upstream I believe, so in the future, other distros can be run on Mac hardware too.

I don't plan on running Asahi ever. One of the big reasons I would want a mac is because I wanna try MacOS for myself. Also, I want a thinkpad with an intel meteor lake soc, which will be a radical upgrade. I'm quite hyped

If you want to use MacOS, the new Macs are all superb. I have a Pro from work and an Air of my own and they're amazing machines.
