The NEW M1 MacBook Running Microsoft Office Suite (Multitasking, RAM & CPU Usage, Compatibility)



This is one of my most highly requested videos. People want to know if the new M1 Mac range will be good for extensive and sometimes demanding Microsoft Office Suite usage.

In this video, I try to emulate the typical workflow of a university student, office worker, or person doing some typical Microsoft Office usage. I open large Excel spreadsheets (100mb+), export huge documents, open and edit large medical .pdf files, edit large Powerpoint presentations, use Outlook and Onenote in the background, all alongside streaming Spotify music and using 30+ tabs of Google Chrome with 4K videos playing.
