Apple is also much faster because the integrated graphics are actually usable for LLMs.
The base M is just a big faster than an Intel/AMD laptop if you can get their graphics working. The M Pro is 2x is fast (as its memory bus is 2x as wide). The M Max is 4x as fast.
AMD is coming out with something more competitive in 2025 though, Strix Halo.
