Comparing only CPU performance does not make a lot of sense.
M1 Pro and M1 Max have the exact same CPU performance (unless the entry level M1 Pro with 2 disabled cores).
Same for M2 Pro and M2 Max.

...and yet every user/reviewer says that the Max versions are way faster than the Pro versions.

So saying that a M2 Pro Mac mini is faster than a M1 Max Mac Studio on the basis of CPU performance only is not serious at all.

Do you think cores are a measure of performance?  M1 cores and M2 cores are not the same.

They are not the same. M2 cores are better than M1 cores.
But M1 Pro and M1 Max have the exact same performance.
And M2 Pro and M2 Max have the exact same performance.

GeekBench has a Compute benchmark to compare GPU performance.
In GeekBench 5 Compute Metal, the best score (manual search) for a Mac mini M2 Pro (Mac14,12) is 52933,
the best score for a Mac Studio M1 Max (Mac13,1) is 71492, which is 35% faster.

From the relase notes, what is new is the ability to set up recurring automations via voice.
Like "Hey Siri, close the living room blinds at 5:30pm every day"

Crashes at launch on my iPad Pro 12.9" 2020 (cellular, 1TB).

Why can’t they add HDR10+ to the older AppleTV streamers?  You don’t need the A15 for that. 

I agree. We still have a chance of it coming later, maybe even on November 4, when the new Apple TV is available.
