>qualcomm pushes reviewers into manipulative reviews
>ships everyone a golden sample chip you can only buy online for $400 more, has reviewers discuss price of cheaper model
>waits for reviews to come out and then jacks up the prices
it's nice to have alternatives to intel and amd i guess, but qualcomm is kinda shit.

they should do a revised version of the review saying something along the lines of "this model isnt that good considering you can get X for Y price after this increase in price"

The worst thing is that Snapdragon is the only real ARM outside Apple, and Qualcomm treat it like its an M5 beater and not a "wait and see" design
No software for it, nobody's supporting it, and they're ripping everyone off for the pleasure

also, all the reviews i saw ONLY compared it to a mac. completely skipped over intel's latest chips.

Don't be fooled. Windows ARM compatibility is pretty shit. Expect mainstream shit to work okay with it, but obscure shit often requires turning on all the "make emulation slower, but more accurate" toggles and even then it sometimes doesn't work for god knows what reason.

Just get an x86 CPU for Windows. That's what all software targets, that's the target that actually gets tested.

If microsoft and qualcomm came together, they could have macbook neo moment, but they are retarded and jeeted beyond point of saving.
