M1 Macbook Pro 8/512 Very Slow Performance


Honestly, I'm very frustrated with the new m1 MacBook pro 8/512. Before I buy this I watched many youtube videos, they suggested buying a MacBook air because they noticed Macbook Air Is fast so I thought the Macbook pro will faster but I was wrong. 

Here Are my issues: 

Slow performance even I'm writing this very hardly, when I try to switch another chrome tab it's take 5 second to load sometimes it takes 15-20 second. 

Sometimes Charge backup, ok but sometimes charge backup gone within 5 hours. 

I uninstall much software and clear the mack even clear my mack history but the same problem.

Thanks 

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.4
