Secondly, you're using geekbench? That's a ARM based benchmark suite, it's not reliable to compare ARM vs x86 on there.
Secondly, for a cinebench run the laptop is boosting wattage/clockspeeds. I just told you the M1 air literally only sustains 10 watts and reaches 95 Celsius under heavy load due to no fan.. these benchmarks are sprints, not workloads.
You said, "8gb ram in m1 machines is better then 16gb windows machines"
Did you deduct that because of the benchmark scores? I assume you did because you believe their impact is see in benchmarks due to you saying "and this is 8gb m1 vs 16gb swift X" that's not how that works dude..
8gb ram is far more limiting then 16gb and isn't future proofed at all. I know because I own a 8GB m1 MBP, it's equivalent to maybe 10gb on windows, as they handle ram differently.

i'd avoid until they can do at least 500-600 nits
What with 8GB ram? No thanks, I own one with 8GB ram and 256GB..
What does fastest matter when we're talking about web browsing and office tasks, where there's no difference but negligible, who cares? Discord runs like shit btw because it's not M1 optimized.
If you are doing heavy workloads on a MacBook air, you're not getting the best performance. 10 watts sustained performance means you're performing below a 5800U easily found in something like a Swift X MSRP.
More efficient Ryzen 6000 makes more sense..

In nearly all benchmarks, this destroys any machine (Including the swift x (5800u and 3050ti) with 16gb vs 8gb m1)

Thats not factoring in the better battery, display, build quality, and keyboard. Not a fanboy of apple, hated and still hate their business practices, but they are defining chip tech.

Go with the Samsung Galaxy Book Flex alpha2 (if you are set on a Samsung laptop) instead since it still has the QLED screen.
Visit reddit r/Galaxybook, the 360 is very problematic and build quality is not great. Samsung also removed features from 360 that were on the Flex to cut cost.
The 360 has major flex around the trackpad and the Amoled screen on the 360 is dim for its high price. I can't even list all its problems.
Just read the reddit thread, its filled with pissed users. Luckily I kept my Galaxy book flex 15.6 and sent the 360 back.
Samsung has a forum (Samsung Members Community / us.community.samsung.com), but now they delete threads who criticize their products.
