Would an M1 chip run better than an 8g3?

On the M1 MacBook (which uses the same chip as the iPad) Aerofly runs very well at high settings. The iPad might be subject to thermal throttling though.

I have the m1 IPad Pro and it runs like 30% better than my IPhone 15 Pro which is almost identical to the performance of the s8g3. But I’m still wondering if the chip or the 8 gigs of ram is the limiting factor
