Continue to struggle to determine who and what Snapdragon systems under Windows is designed for?
Currently (and obviously in the past...) these Snapdragon systems struggle with Gaming, Enterprise applications, and niche applications, drivers for many types of hardware, VPNs, etc. And that is just on Windows. It also doesn't work well at all on Linux.
If it was available for Linux reliably, that would be a fantastic option, but it's STILL hit or miss for even Ubuntu, arguably the most developed OS in terms of laptop support.
Windows on ARM has been around for a long time (2012 for RT, 2017 for Windows 10!) It's not like there has been a dearth of time to develop the proper support for this architecture.
I'm calling Snapdragon X (on Windows/Linux) a dead architecture. Apple/Chromebooks/Android/AMD/Intel all work better on their respective platforms/architectures and there isn't really room for this half-baked solution moving forward.
Asus' Zenbook A14 features a 1,200p OLED panel, a Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus SoC, 16 GB of soldered RAM, and a 512 GB user-upgradable SSD. The laptop is impressively light at just 2.4 lb, but it still delivered impressive battery life in our tests thanks to the 70 Wh cell.
