Yes. Apple Silicon release is really necessary. Rosetta for Intel absolutely kills the battery on my Macbook Pro 14, and running the Edge App has terrible lag for screen sharing. It is so bad that my colleagues and I end up having to create a simultaneous Zoom Meeting just to share screens while retaining Teams for chat. We may just switch to Zoom if this is delayed past WWDC. It will have been 2 years by then since initial announcement.

Recently some sites have published articles about a Microsoft Teams Beta release of a Universal Binary application that runs natively on both M1 and Intel based processors. The information in these articles is inaccurate, and articles have no backing from Microsoft. In the articles, there are links to builds on our CDN that are for internal use only. We are working on delivering a Universal Binary offering of Teams and the CDN link in these articles does contain a downloadable version. However, we discourage users from trying this version(and all other versions that do not come from official Microsoft distribution channels), as it is still in the early phases of testing, fixing, and validation. We understand that our users are eager for a native M1 build, and we are excited to make it a reality in the near future, but we ask that users please not use these unvalidated, unsupported versions.
