Laptops running snapdragon

[Paul11]

Anyone else looking at getting a laptop with the new snapdragon/arm processor ?

a few companys have them on pre order already

I'm surprised there's not more talk on this! Will the use case be more for high end users or will it benefit people who just want to do the daily computer tasks and just want really good battery life?

TBH, I'd be more interested in a solid mini-PC with them just to mess about with. That developer one looks nice, but it's a bit pricey for me.

i thought some of the prices looked quote good £1200 ish for a nice spec Dell xps or lenovo

talk of 20+ hours on battery

waiting for reviews to come out

Having seen what Apple has done I think these must be the future. Which manufacturers have got products coming?

Dell, HP, Lenovo, Acer and i think Samsung..

Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 x is the one thats taken my eye.

I posted in the CPU forum as I hadn't seen this thread but I've ordered the OLED Surface Pro. I had a Pro X a few years back and it was good but underpowered so hopefully this is a decent uplift. I use an SP9 i7 at the moment but the fan noise winds me up, I fancy the improved display, and if the battery life is as promised I can leave my charger at home.

I was thinking of replacing my Lenovo Ideapad 5 so I might wait until the new CPUs trickle down to that range. The current Ideapad 5 uses a 45W CPU rather than the 15W mine has so something heading back in that direction would be good.
