Kind of remarkable for a laptop without a fan. (Infamous fan-hater Steve Jobs would be proud.)

Power/thermal management looks very good - low heat and long battery life without sacrificing performance.

Presumably the Air will have to throttle performance for some workloads, but not in this benchmark apparently.

It’s one run and it runs for a couple of minutes, so it’s not going to tell you much about thermal management.
