But Intel also said Rocket Lake is better than M1:

> Intel claims that an 11th gen Core i7-1185G7 CPU can match or exceed the MacBook Pro M1’s processor in both native and non-native applications based on the benchmarks released. The company also says the 11th gen Core I7 will provide better battery life.

So can we assume the leap of M1 -> M1 Max is bigger than 11th i7 -> 12th i7, therefore Intel can only beat it with i9?

But it is a little strange since M1 Max has more CPU, GPU core and memory, and CPU design is almost the same. while Intel 12th core is a new design.
