Should I wait for the MacBooks with Arm chip?

I have been planning to buy a MacBook Pro laptop. But now I read that Apple is planning to switch to Arm chip. Should I wait for it or take the opportunity to buy one of the last MacBooks with an Intel chip? What are the pros and cons for either choice?

    What are you using the laptop for?

    If its web browsing with long battery life, you should just get an iPad Pro with the keyboard attachment. for anything else just buy an Intel Macbook - who knows how long it will be until the ARM Macbook gets released
