I'm seeing ~6GB/sec: https://www.tomshardware.com/laptops/macbooks/m5-macbook-pro...
That's decently fast but not especially remarkable, most Gen4 NVMe drives can hit 6-7GB/sec.

"The new MacBook Pro delivers up to 2x faster read/write performance compared to the previous generation reaching speeds of up to 14.5GB/s..."
Those speeds on the Pro/Max are impressive though, more in line with Gen5 NVMe drives. Those have been available in desktops for some time but AFAIK the controllers are still much too hot and power hungry for laptops, so I think Apple's custom controller is actually the first to practically hit those speeds on mobile.
