That is very low power draw for that activity compared to many devices.

I think Macbooks are about half that.

ARM is more power efficient and so are OLED screens so it wouldn’t shock me if the apple silicon macbooks are significantly lower power draw.

Finding a good 1 to 1 comparison is difficult though so I can’t say for sure.
