Isnt this already obvious? Besides X Elite laptop aint cheap despite not really compatible with all apps.

But Qualcomm says things will change for the better in coming future. Is it believable?

I still believe in snapdragon on windows will keep improving. In the meantime will wait for the price to come down 1st.

Everything will improve along the way... given the pricetag, who would buy a broken thing?

Agreed. Right now the price abit high especially for OLED version. Asus vivobook mostly RM 4k & above. If the price around RM 3k will be good

check out review first before buying,
for now just stick with x86 CPU, king of backward compatibility.

definitely read this before buying https://www.asus.com/support/faq/1048803/

WARM is different beast of OS,
for example Android, you plug in any thing, it will almost certainly works,
USB dock, ethernet, hdd, ,keyboard/mice, plug-n-play, why? because Android is build on top of Linux.
a lot of drivers are added into the kernel.

While Windows + x86, a lot of drivers are shipped with Windows, tonnes of support from hardware vendor,
most people cant leave Windows due to the widest hardware/software compatibilities.

WASM is Windows + ARM, without support from their maker Qualcomm/MS, it will not work.

Thanks for the explanation, as an android user I'm really curious about snapdragon on Windows, will buy one when the price drops lower to feel experience it myself
