The bottom line is that Windows on Arm aims to bring the complete Windows ecosystem and experience to Arm-based devices. To do this, Microsoft needs silicon partners building Arm processors. Qualcomm is, currently, that partner.

Early performance was passable, but notably sluggish when running multiple apps. Especially compared to x86 laptops and desktops. Back then, you were also stuck with Microsoft Edge as the only compatible web browser, before Firefox for Arm came along.

The broader app ecosystem was also quite poor and x86 emulation performance lagged. It served as a decent replacement for my aging Chromebook. Fast forward to and the Mixx , despite being a few years older, feels like a new machine. Several key Windows 10 Arm updates notably improved performance, even on this aging hardware. The ecosystem now feels almost as complete as Windows x Multi-tasking flies, emulation runs great, and older x86 games even run at acceptable frame rates.

The drawback of more powerful processing capabilities and higher-end display specs is more limited battery life. Bringing mobile chips to laptops is done in the name of portability, not peak performance. But Windows Arm laptops in might hit the sweet spot. The Surface Pro X and Snapdragon 8cx are premium tier products. However, Qualcomm announced two new affordable laptop chipsets at the Snapdragon Tech Summit If the drive passes SeaTools for Windows, your troubleshooting can move to other areas.
