    Let’s see if AMD can perform better than Qualcomm. There was a lot of corporate propaganda before the release of the Snapdragon X and I would argue the release was a largely a failure.

        stores have increasingly reported high return rates of snapdragon based laptops reletive to their x86 counterparts.

        even Amazon slapped a returned frequently tag on the surface laptop 7 at one point.

        Can you show me a Snapdragon X device with 3,000+ ST on Geekbench 6? These were their initially marketed benchmarks (that was later revealed to be a custom Linux solution running on an internal device that’s not available to the public).

        There was also a lot of news about relatively low shipment share and, as others have mentioned, high return rates.
