1)App compatibility issue, you have to use Rosetta2 for most software. 2)Unified memory architecture causes extremely excessive rewriting on SSD which is soldered and irreplaceable. //@sza: Don't be the beta testers.

It is horrible to install modules in Apple ml to do ML/DL. for example, still don't know how to install pytorch, don't know how to install hdf5 and so on. Don't buy at this moment.

11.2.3 update fixed the issue with 3rd party usb-c hubs, therefore no more complaints after 4/6 in that macrumors thread. //@sza: Don't be the beta testers.

not really. Just use Rosetta for intel applications. The performance is not too shabby compared to newer intel CPUs.

Anyone who seriously calls themself an audiophile doesn’t deserve Apple anyway. They can take their pick from lower quality brands. //@anonymous: Grado GW100 offer better sound quality and are much less expensive. Audiophiles will not touch Apple with a ten foot pole.

The main catch of Grado is it’s really uncomfortable… as a wireless headphone sound quality doesn’t really matter that much, comfort is king. Apple sound quality is at least better than Beats but it’s indeed overpriced.
