Relevant quote regarding Snapdragon X
“As this was the first full quarter of shipments for Snapdragon X Series PCs, we saw sequential growth of around 180% compared to Q2 2024. However, as a proportion of the total Windows market, the products remain very niche, at less than 1.5% share. The top shipping vendor was Microsoft, which has transitioned most of their Surface line to the platform. Behind them was Dell who has embraced the new platform quite strongly in terms of SKU count, followed by HP, Lenovo, Acer and Asus (all four with similar volumes).”
It’s just an expensive paperweight until we can run Linux on it.
Partial support is coming in four years time they’ve announced. We just have to wait 🫠.
Cool, maybe I’ll get one in 4+ years. Or maybe I’ll get an x86 laptop. But I’m not getting something that doesn’t support Linux properly OOTB.
