How is the heat? Does it stay cool? I have a 2018 MacBook pro for work, and it is the worst.

I hate two things, fan noise and a hot laptop, so I'm very excited to get a new one sometime soon.

When I actively compile stuff, it gets slightly warm. 95% of time it is cold.

I assume if you code/build actively being in a warm room or under the sun, it will get too hot.

Actually it’s not getting to warm. Somebody on YouTube tested the Air running next to a heater and it didn’t got significantly hotter and didn’t additionally throttle (except of the normal throttle of 10% compared to the Pro)
