I'm also interested in some real world performance comparisons.

Virtually no chance.

This is because specs are still Wi-Fi 6 which suggests Broadcom BCM4378. If it supported 4x4 or 160MHz, it would be BCM4389 which has 6E.

No 6E = no 4x4 or 160MHz.
 
I'm curious on this too.

3x3 Wi-Fi 6 would be great - 4x4 or 160MHz would be even better but even 3x3 AX seems hard to find (impossible?) on laptops, so I fear it could be 2x2.

If it keeps the 2x2 Wi-Fi 6 from the M1 machines then that's a bit disappointing and a little slower than the machines it replaces.

The fact Apple didn't shout about Wi-Fi being faster has me worried.
 
Is this evidence of 3x3? I see three wires coming out of the board:
