    One of the main advantages of Windows on ARM is that it's eliminated sleep mode problems. If you close the lid and then come back eight hours later, it comes back on instantly, and the battery isn't dead.

      this might be the problem for some people but definitely not everyone… i’ve left my lenovo laptop for 2 weeks unattended with 80% battery, today i opened it with 77%, and it wasn’t turned off nor charging - just in sleep mode. So your mileage may vary, i didn’t even know this was an issue for windows laptops

    great review! I have owned a Dell XPS 13 laptop for about 7 years, it's just getting slow. I bought a new Surface 13.8" with the X Elite 12 core. It has been a great replacement! I am a real state broker, no game play, it's an amazing laptop for what I need. Mainly to take on appointments, write up contracts, view PDF's, office docs, internet work. Dropbox works great, almost everything else I do is in a web browser. A couple of really nice things I have noticed. 1)Doesn't get hot at all, I have yet to hear the fan turn on 2). It comes out of sleep mode in a second and I am logged in within a second or two! 2)The eye or face login is super quick! compared to my XPS13 that never actually seemed to go to sleep properly and took forever to load back into windows(that could be because it was 7 years old I know). 3)Screen is super bright. One thing I don't like is no backlit keyboard like my XPS13 had.

      It is a refreshing novelty to experience it, especially due to comparisons between x86 laptops with Macbook's M1 ARM when that device came out in 2020. Modern ARM devices are more efficient, and are very suitable for users looking for a laptop that has longer battery life and considerable power. Until Snapdragon X, we only had Windows x86 laptops in the mainstream, which all pale in comparison to Apple's silicon.

    How about video editing on ARM?

      Davinci Resolve has a Windows on ARM (WoA) version and due to the 12 high powered cores with high frequency RAM, it works great for video editing (as long as you have sufficient amount of RAM in your laptop of course, otherwise that becomes a bottleneck regardless how good the CPU is). Only thing I did not test yet is GPU acceleration, I don't know if that is supported yet
      Premiere is not supported by WoA natively yet, but Adobe claims they are working on adding a WoA version, though that might take a while

    Fuck no ARM is nowhere near the performance of x86 chips. AMD has the right approach for this architecture and will continue to thrive.

      Exactly, I hope AMD releases a chip soon that blows these out of the water. All we need is better battery life

    My biggest grip with this is this:
    On my Mac, I can pretty much fulfill my entire workflow with1st party apps, and a web browser, that being on ARM or x64.
    On Windows, however, I mostly rely on 3rd party apps.
    With Mac, I'm getting the ARM benefits without the many downsides of it. On Windows I'm getting the downsides, even with the upsides in mind.
    I don't think this laptop would be right for me, at least for now.

    Zen 5 shows that you dont really need to go to arm. All you need is to split the workload between P cores and E cores.
