Single core similar and multicore 50% better for MacBook.

The XPS's CPU only has 4 cores to the Air's 8. Dell would be wise to ditch Intel for AMD so that they're competing with the same TSMC 7nm silicone as Apple. Intel is in trouble.

Careful comparing core count, half of the Air's cores are power efficiency cores rather than performance.
