The Sims 4 on iPad Pro
What is EA waiting for? iPad Pro has the power to run the REAL The Sims 4 (and expansions), not that “mobile” version full of in-app purchases to do everything. Will EA release a TS4 iPadOS version...

The latest IPad Pro with M1 CPU is faster than most of the latest Intel i7 CPUs, basically making it more powerful than most desktop PCs.

This is a test against AMD and intel Laptop CPUs.
The M1 is a really impressive CPU, it is a technological milestone, but it is not even close to the Multicore performance of "the latest" high end AMD or Intel Desktop CPUs.
The performance of a Computer is also not only determined by its CPU, and the graphical performance of a IPad Pro is not even close to high end Desktop GPUs.
So all in all, an IPad Pro with M1 is a great device, but it is in no way "more powerful" than a gaming desktop.
Interesting article!
Indeed, M1 (especially in the iPad) can't compete with the high-end desktop CPUs, but what I meant to say, is that it's more powerful than an average popular desktop PCs (from a couple of years old until even recent mid-range CPUs).
But the most important point was that it's definitely more than enough run The Sims 4 (if it ever was released for the platform).
