Been a lot of rumours floating around, some from Qualcomm (ex) employees, suggesting Qualcomm has been fudging their benchmarks, meaning in reality the X plus/elite barely match M1 performance, so we'll see. Not an Apple fanboy, would love to see competition in this market for some powerful thin laptops that don't cost a second mortgage, but the amount of these rumours as of late is quite worrying. Even M1 level Windows machines would be welcome, if the price is right, but Qualcomm does have a history of exaggerating.

@TamasKiss-yk4st 13 днів тому

I also had the same toughts, when i saw somenpower consumption diagrams. It was obvious from the 23W peak and 23W sustained power consumption it's a device with cooler, but the M3 had only 19W peak and 8W sustained power consumption, so it was a fanless model.. not too hard to get bettet results with tricks like this. Also had some worries when the battery comparisons said it's can get 40% extra battery life in office 365 compared to x86.. really 40%? That is not even close to the 15-20hours of battery time.. i mean those excel, word etc doesn't even need a lot of performance..

I think the issue is on phones they’re just working with the android setup and are efficient. Windows is challenging. So will come More down to how well emulation works and software compatibility. Apparently the only reason they caught up is because the main engineers left apple and created their own company called “Nuvia” (I may have spelled wrong). Then Qualcomm purchased that company.

There is something most of you leave out when talking about external display support. In terms of number, yes, X elite supports more displays than M3. However, you always leave out the resolution-which is also essential. X elite supports up to three 4K@60 displays or two 5K@60 while M3 supports up to two 5K@60 displays with the lid closed. If it's number of pixels, the M3 technically is not far off from the X elite. And the M3 can also support one 6K@60 as well.

@wisdomyaw03 13 днів тому

There seems to be something fishy going on with how Qualcomm is presenting the performance of their new chips. Don't get me wrong, it's good that they are bringing more competition by releasing this chip. However, if you pay close attention to the numbers they had presented when they first announced this chip compared to what they have presented recently, it begs the question if they are being candid? Qualcomm had shown the X elite to score over 3,200 points in Geekbench 6 single core test when they announced it, and now their showing around 2,800 points in their latest charts. Why did it decrease? Was the 3,200 used just to show how they beat Apple M2 and Intel in that respect? Also, they keep talking about how their 12 performance cores CPU beats M3-which has 4 perf and 4 efficiency cores-in multi threaded benchmark. Like, really? M3? They don't even show the single core performance when doing the comparisons -which is the most important metric when using thin and light notebooks since most of the tasks involve single threaded workloads. They also omit the power consumption difference as well- again, very essential. Look, like I said, it's good for competition to have their chips in PCs and I applaud them for what they bring to the table. But they have to come clean.

ARM on windows needs to become like android: the best midrange options. There needs to be a well built laptop with a good screen (not matte VA and TN panel), decent keyboard, speakers and trackpad. It just needs to be able to run chrome almost as well as an m1 MacBook runs safari and for a similar price to an m1 MacBook air currently. Galaxy book2 go is probably the only low end ARM laptop and it costs $500 for a laptop that performs like a celeron and has a rubbish screen. To be fair, when I tried the galaxy book go originally before chrome even got an ARM version, the main issue was the 4gb of ram which made Edge pretty unusable. I'd want to try an 8gb ram 7c gen 3 laptop to see if it can do basic web browsing well because that is pretty much all I use a laptop for.

I switched from windows to mac last month and I am not going back, even if the PC is twice as fast. The main problem was always windows. It’s so stupid, unless they fix it I ain’t going back

I don't think snapdragon should compare themselves with apple M chips, they are still a long way if they are comparing fanless base chip with their top and mid offering. They will get positive press if the compare themselves with Intel first and once they have establsihed themselves in the PC Laptop market, only then compete themselves with apple.

Apple been too sluggish with LTE on their MacBooks.

@MultiTacs 13 днів тому

Feel like this review is misleading so far this new chip isn’t really comparable to Apple.

@rogrol5382 13 днів тому

If you want macOS it does not really matter what the others are doing.

@shameermulji 13 днів тому

Exactly this. All that matters is macOS or Windows. If MS / Qualcomm can deliver, this will be a win for the Windows ecosystem and a threat to Intel / AMD

@blinblinthing 13 днів тому

Same goes if someone wants Windows, so a moot point.

@mariourzua-wk9pz 13 днів тому

Of course it matters, there are many users willing to change OS, so the competition forces the prices to go down. Hopefully this is a good chip so that all users can benefit from it

Their target is Intel and AMD. ARM processors, like Apple Silicon, will soon stand on equal ground. Apple will utilize its CPUs, while Qualcomm aims to dominate the PC market, where both CPU types compete evenly. The Intel x86 line becomes a historical footnote as both Intel and AMD decline, paving the way for Qualcomm and Apple to dominate for decades to come.

I like how everyone forgets Intel & AMD also have ARM licences. They aren't going anywhere kiddo

@jayvee8502 7 днів тому

How can they target AMD and Intel if they can't even have gaming laptops? For day and office use? Yes. But never for gaming.

@Doctorwhotrucking77 13 днів тому

too be fair this snapdragon chip being Windows/ Microsofts entry to arm to compete with apple . it should be Gen 1 to Gen 1 comparison. Plus if this gen 1 being better then gen 3 of apple is true not fudged. then it can only go up from there . for their gen 2 and 3 chips . My take on it anyways

@AndrewTSq 13 днів тому

then they should compare it to first gen x86 also, like the 8080.

@Doctorwhotrucking77 13 днів тому

@@AndrewTSq i was thinking Arm to arm gen 1 that all

Where can I buy an ultrabook with this chip today? Is it not all vaporware? meanwhile Apple is getting the M4 ready to actual ship in real devices as we speak.

@aravjain 10 днів тому

M3 Pro 💪💪

@thavith 13 днів тому

I really want the competition to beat what Apple is doing as it will mean Apple will give us better chips when its their turn. Everyone wins. I love that this chip supports so many external displays, you know the M4 will do the same now (if not more). The days of x86 are over. Intel and AMD need to take this arch. seriously (which I know they are). Too little too late for RISC-V sadly, at least for the next 5 to 10 years...

@RockTheCage55 13 днів тому

Performance isn't everything. Windows sucks. Maybe if the perf is great linux could be a viable option for me but it would be hard to live without the integration i get with a mac.

@alexanderfazel 13 днів тому

Clearly, even the X chip compares to M3 Pro, but you keep showing screenshots comparing it to the base model M3. Just because you visited Qualcomm faculties and they were nice to you doesn’t mean you have to push their narrative. So far, I’m seeing Apple’s M3 Pro chips win in most categories, M3 base in some and let’s not even discuss M3 Max (the real competitor to Elite). I can’t wait till M4, M4 Pro and Max come in November. Apple can swat Intel and Qualcomm for taking so many years to start to approach Apple silicon. Yes, competition is great, but disingenuous specs marketing is not. And yes, Apple does sometimes do that, but it is FAR rarer than the competition. The Wintel monopoly (Microsoft and Intel) literally hobbled the industry for a long time and then comes along Qualcomm, monopolizing with double dipping patent royalties and exaggerating performance. Microsoft still lies about their surface tablets. Google is a spyware, data mining receptacle for ads and for spooks and half of these companies have arms contracts and AI tech being used in mass murder around the world. I’ll take Apple’s walled garden any day.

@sweealamak628 13 днів тому

I prefer MacOS to Windows but I want the Snapdragon X Elite to succeed because Apple needs to face real competition. RAM is similarly soldered onto Qualcomm's chip so I hope their minimum RAM offering starts at 16GB, which puts pressure on Apple to up their base RAM.
