Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite Chips Set to Give Apple’s M-Series a Run for Its Money

There’s a storm brewing on the horizon, and it’s about to rock the world of mobile computing. Leaked benchmarks are hinting at an absolute beast of a chip from Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite.

Rumor has it that Qualcomm is prepping not just one, but multiple flavors of this silicon beast, which has already left mouths agape with its jaw-dropping performance scores.

We’re talking Geekbench numbers that would make even Apple’s M-series chips break a sweat. A staggering 2,574 in single-core and a mind-boggling 12,562 in multi-core tests! If these leaked figures hold true, Qualcomm’s flagship could outmuscle the mighty M1, M2, and even give the M3 a run for its money.

But here’s the real kicker – this chipset is designed to bring that sizzling performance to Windows on ARM devices. Yes, you read that right! A thin, fanless laptop packing the power of Snapdragon X Elite-chips while running good ol’ Windows? It’s the dream combo tech enthusiasts have been drooling over for ages.

As Mishaal Rahman eloquently puts it, “All I’ve wanted for so long is a thin laptop with somewhat comparable performance to the M1/M2/M3, excellent battery life, and cellular connectivity. And, most importantly, runs Windows.”

Sure, Windows on ARM still has some compatibility kinks to iron out, but with each iteration, it’s inching closer to iron-clad emulation of x86/x64 apps and seamless Android app support. If Qualcomm can nail the execution, the Snapdragon X Elite could be a game-changer, finally bringing ARM’s power and efficiency to the Windows realm without compromise.
