We bought ours when it first came out after several terrible windows laptops. It still runs like new and there’s hasn’t been any need to consider upgrading (m1 air in our case). The biggest complaint is once or twice a year I need a usb c to an adapter for an old device or something.
I'm not in the Apple ecosystem but I have a 16" 32GB M1 MBP. It was given to me when I started my job as my work machine and the thing is a beast especially comparing it to all the terrible laptops Apple came out with prior (removal of mag safe, addition of touch bar, the keyboard issues). I still use that laptop for work today and it honestly doesn't even feel like it's aged a day. Everything is still extremely fast and I use my work laptop 8 hours a day for extremely demanding tasks (I'm a dev so things like running dozens of docker containers, compilation, Android emulators, multiple IDEs, etc).
