> Also it performs at 10W, not at 15W and does so without a fan (in the case of the MacBook Air
The comparison is with a Mac Mini that uses a fan.
15W is not far from 10W, considering Ryzen are still 7nm
IMO even 35W is not much at all, for 18 hours on battery and that kind of performances (especially the multi core).
The difference is negligible for users, assuming 8 hours a day for 365 days straight the 15W APU would consume 15KW more, in Italy it would cost about one euro more.
