Not all versions of Windows have bloatware and Index / Windows Search but current consumer versions have some. That does not mean that Windows is bloated but it means that the out-of-box experience is. Spend an hour for settings and the bloatware is gone.

Once bloat- and crapwares are tamed, Windows is fast. As fast as XP or Windows 7.

While this is bad for sure, do not misinform people by exaggerating description!

X Elite (and Plus) ARM chips work only with Windows 11 (and with Linux). All Windows 11 options are extremely bloated even if you debloat everything down to nothing, even Tiny11 (which is spyware) is bloated more than Windows 10 Home stock variant. And then with 24H2 there is even more bloat coming, including implemented malware straight from Microsoft themselves: https://www.techradar.com/computing/windows/microsoft-reveals-ai-powered-recall-feature-to-transform-windows-11s-searchability-while-confirming-hardware-requirements

"So, how does Recall work?

In the past we've seen reports of a rumored feature, often referred to as 'AI Explorer,' that would enable you to search through your past activity on your PC. It looks like this has manifested as the Recall feature, and it'll be privy to all the activity on your PC including what apps you use, how you use those apps, and what you do in them (for example, conversations in WhatsApp). Recall will record all of this activity going forward, saving snapshots of it in your PC's local storage."

So yes, it is extremely bloated and it will be bloated even more like it or not.

That does not mean that Windows is bloated but it means that the out-of-box experience is. Spend an hour for settings and the bloatware is gone. If you do not know which settings, spend a day informing yourself. OEMs may include crapware, which needs extra hours for deinstallation or deactivation.

So not Windows per se is bloated but typical initial installations need time and effort for debloating.

Once bloat- and crapwares are tamed, Windows is fast. As fast as XP or Windows 7.

Da gebe ich dir vollkommen Recht, dann währen auch wieder günstigere Smartphones mit ansonsten top Ausstattung machbar.
Bei 5 Jahren Nutzung relativiert sich der Preis dann natürlich etwas.

Ich habe mein derzeitiges S23 hauptsächlich aufgrund der Größe gekauft, gerade die Videofeatures (S-Log etc.) machen die Sonys für mich allerdings sehr interessant.
Wenn die große Kamera gerade mal nicht dabei ist wäre das für mich ein Mehrwert, den ich gerne bezahlen würde, da man den Content auch farblich super auf den Bildlook einer richtigen Kamera anpassen kann.
Davon abgesehen kann man das alte Xperia Pro z.B. auch als externen Monitor für Sony Kameras nutzen, was absolut genial ist.

Grob überschlagen dürfte der Performance-Verlust der Emulation bei Multicore-Anwendung 30% sein, bei Apple sind es mit Rosetta wohl nur 22%. Würde also gehen. Leider kenne ich die Performance-Werte der alten Emulation nicht und im Surface Pro 9 Test von 2023 finde ich auf Anhieb auch keine direkten Vergleiche zwischen 2 Implementierungen desselben Tools.

Und man merkt, dass Microsoft diesen Test gesponsert hat... man sucht sich als Competition natürlich nur Intel-Geräte aus, AMD wird vermieden. Und dann die Geschichte mit der Emulation:

QuoteEmulated performance on the
new Surface is outperforming
even the native performance
of the 12th Gen Core i7

Welch' Kunststück im Vergleich zu einer CPU im alten Surface, die bei Multi-Core Auslastung sowieso unterlegen ist!
Im Test schreibt man selbst, dass es von Adobe Lightroom eine ARM-Version gibt und eine Classic-Version aus x86er Basis. Warum testet man nicht die Emulation im Vergleich zur nativen Version desselben Programms auf Basis des X Elite und des alten ARM-Modells? Das wäre eine brauchbare Aussagekraft zur Fähigkeit der Emulation.

In India Google should either stop selling thier pixel linup or get serious if they want to do business here.

Pixel 8a is Rs. 52999 just add Rs. 6000 and get iPhone 14 at Rs. 58999 or save Rs. 6000 and get Samsung S23 at Rs. 46999

Similarly Pixel 8 is Rs. 69999 just at Rs. 1291 and get iPhone 15 at Rs. 71290

Both Apple and Samsung offers solid and reliable option for long term use.

As for Pixel, only enthusiasts and Pixel fans are buying and are suffering with network and heat related issues.

In top of that there is no official store for Google Pixel and what to say about their lackluster service centers.
