I will say I've never ever even once had an issue with my M1 pro 16", can't say that about any other laptop I've owned (be it battery swelling, software bugs, or "issues" one learns to live with like sleep mode causing boot crashes or sleep mode draining battery %). Kinda amazing in hindsight.

Same for my M1 Pro 14", the only issue I have is that the macOS version of Firefox just absolutely obliterates my battery, I mostly use Safari now, because it's much better optimized. That's really quite unfortunate, but it's not Apple's fault, and I don't see any hope for this, unless Mozilla decides to continue development of the Rust-based Servo browser engine, and eventually Firefox may switch away from the antiquated and incredibly inefficient Gecko code.
