can't wait for these. I work in data science and have been using windows as my personal laptop for years but was ready to jump ship to mac until I heard about these up-and-coming ARM windows laptops. hope they don't disappoint!
I'm so glad to see intel getting punched in the face. For years, they did not innovate and while performance did increase, it came at the cost of high thermals. Now Snapdragon is going to take the throne and they will struggle.
My last Dell had so many overheating issues it pushed me to buy apple silicon when it dropped.. Intel dropped the ball hard. Good to see they are coming back though with the new core Ultra series too. I’d go for these snapdragons probably though cause I’m poor and not in need of crazy power anymore.
@@ErrcycoI never in a million years saw myself getting a MacBook like ever. I am a windows guy I love x86 apps, but the M1 MacBook Air was and still is undeniably better than any windows thin and light laptop and I got mine for $500 used.
@@HaiBeast I had the M1 Mac Air and it was an amazing laptop. Unfortunately, I had too many programs that relied on X86 architecture. If we can get that level of performance at the form factor and quietness as Macbook Air, then we can talk about comparison. Until then, Apple is king.
Great reviews after Qualcomm flew everyone to Maui, Hawaii for a luxury, all-expense-paid "vacation". Qualcomm marketing guy must have worked in the auto industry.
Battery life matters a lot+ a fanless design. App compatibility will be fine overtime and it will have important apps for an average user at their lunch time. I waited to change my laptop to see how these laptops will perform. If they're good, I'll buy an OLED one.
Battery life will be amazing. I already preordered the Lenovo Slim 7x. I recommend looking at that one. It's a 14" OLED with a 90hz refresh rate and a 70Wh battery. You can also get it with 32GB of memory if you customize it on the Lenovo site. The upgrades for it are cheap too (memory and storage). After a student discount, and with a bag + bookbag, the total for me was $1200. For this level of technology, that's incredible value.
@@cynicist8114 yeah. I was thinking about a larger screen one, that's why I was looking at the Galaxy Book 4 Edge. But let's see what happens. I'm not a student so I can't get that discount. For sure, Lenovo is a fantastic device
Hope that chipset can be put on tablet as well as on smartphones same as M series of apple that they can put thyre chipset on laptop and on thier tablets
Really when it comes out. Please test the Battery life in normal "office/multimedia" tasks. I hope that it could be so good as my M2 13 Macbook pro. I hope that Games would also work without beeing connected to an poweroutlet . Like World of Warcraft, Genshin Impact, Counter strike 2, COD and so on.
Now the big thing is how well Windows on Arm can run software. Sure the basic stuff works but Microsoft really needs to triple down on helping developers have their apps natively work on Arm.
I am anxious to see how it handles Davinci Resolve....I am thinking of picking up the M3Pro....but if this Snapdragon offers better performance I will go windows
How is the performance for CAD applications such as Solidworks, Fusion 360, etc.? I mean I am not asking if we can edit workstation level assemblies but what about basic parts and assemblies with few parts?
how good are those computers from a software developer point of view ? I got bored with my macbook already (mac os actually) , but will like to have a linux compatible arm cpu
My questions are: how compatible is the new translation layer? Can it run Thunderbird, and a bunch of FOSS tools that have no arm version on PC, how big is the difference in the Snapdragon X Plus vs Elite? Does it scale linearly does 20% more cores equal 20% more performance?
Well, in the showed Baldurs Gate 3 even the basic Apple chip perform similar, and if the X Elite is a more expensive one compared to the X Plus, than that is not the basic M2/M3/M4 competitor (even based on core counts, they are more like the M2 Pro/M3 Pro/M4 Pro competitor, but that Apple chip also doubling the fps compared to the basic M series), so in shorts, the reason to not hear about a lot of the GPU, because it's not really good, just a bit better like the Android flagships already have)
@@TamasKiss-yk4st Not really a good comparison for a few reasons. 1. is baldurs gate has a native apple ARM port. So most games would NEVER come close to that. 2. the game still runs fairly poorly when compared to x86 GPUS like the 3080 and 4080 which are similarly priced, 3. The "basic" apple silicon chip really isn't a powerhouse, its okay, just very good at battery efficiency. For those of us needing an extremely high end GPU, you'd need the Pro chip line or Ultra line which has far more GPU cores. Comparing the X elite to that is a fairer comparison.
Raw NPU performance is better compared to the M3 or below, M4 is closer. However MS has compared all benchmarks to the M3 Macbook Air which is passively cooled and did not mention any Pro, Max or Ultra performance. I guess MS strategy is to push ARM on the lower end portable devices where performance / watt matters and keep the highend market to the x86, since on desktop workstations power consumption is not the highest priority.
Which are the AI Laptop Launching with Snapdragon X Elite Chipset? I heard Lenovo is releasing X Elite Chipset Laptops which can also be compatible with Windows 12 ?
it doesn't matters how better the processor got we need proper support for windows on arm Microsoft needs to bring the hammer down for the stubborn third party devs
These could be huge for AI folks because of their combined memory (like the newer Macs). Running an LLM on your own machine is usually limited by how much VRAM you have. If you get 32GB of ram on one of these machines, that means you can run an LLM with 30+ billion parameters.
These are just reference models there is no price. However Microsoft just announced the surface laptop and surface pro using these chips and they start at $999
Do you think it can do full performance on battery like Macbooks? Thinking of switch to apply specifically for this but might wait for snapdragon elite
I hope this becomes legendary moment, just like the launch of Ryzen. Don't let us down, Qualcomm.
yeah I hope they make apple, intel and amd redesign their chips

This time Qualcomm provided Linux support even before the soc's launch lol@@zoeyaaahmed203

I hope Adobe will bring their Creative Cloud apps native to Windows ARM-based laptops.

Smartphone is a big ask but Qualcomm will use the core design in future mobile SoCs maybe from Snapdragon 8 gen 5.

Problem right now is the price... Can't have efficient Ultra 9-185H performance at a massive premium like they had with the Samsung laptop there...

That sounds interesting.
Snapdragon X Plus 🚀 🚀
Check their performance in other games too, please, and also check apps that were not remade for arm
Now the big thing is how well Windows on Arm can run software. Sure the basic stuff works but Microsoft really needs to triple down on helping developers have their apps natively work on Arm.
Should I wait with buying a laptop then? What do you think the retail price of a laptop with a Snapdragon will be? Around 1200-1500?
I am anxious to see how it handles Davinci Resolve....I am thinking of picking up the M3Pro....but if this Snapdragon offers better performance I will go windows

what about gpu power? also beating ultra 7 ?
how does it do in development environments? like docker and stuffs?
Insane ! That what I waiting for
Nobody has even mentioned the GPU in the device. Is it any good? How does it compare to Apple Silicon GPUs or NVIDIA/AMD DGPUs?

How would this affect dedicated gpus in laptops and desktops if this becomes mainstream?
I want to know battery life and whats the average wattage for normal tasks.
I want to know in what aspects is Apple m3, m4, m3 pro, better or worse than the snapdragons. How is battery life doing vs the competion

Microsoft needs to bring the hammer down for the stubborn third party devs
Which laptop is this
Baldur's gate? Or Baldur's gate 3? Because the two are very very different.
My question for the review will be, is it better than an Intel chip?
For battery power efficiency, yes. For app performance, that still needs to be seen with real world proper testing.
Bruh why not just put numeric keyboard instead of kilometer gaps between keys and 20 light year bezels around the keyboard
i would like to about how much it can game ....
Hope Windows OS don’t screw this one too.
Can we get this for desktop
Probably mini PCs.
Doesn't make any sense, if you want a desktop you are neither constrained by space nor efficiency.
Wanna see gaming performance
there is baldur's gate 3 in this short
Is it compatible with eGPU?
