Based on benchmark data, these chipsets are way more powerful than Intel chips and are optimised well for Apple's macOS as well as the entire ecosystem of apps.

This also allows you to run iPad and iPhone apps on your Mac. These chips are based on the same architecture as the A15 chip, and that allows the apps designed for iPhones and iPads to work on the Mac. Hence, if you use apps like LumaFusion for editing on your iPad and are used to it, you can use the same on your Mac.
