Snapdragon Processors

[Negita43]

I'm looking to replace my existing Lenovo Legion. Initially when I replace I always look at the reviews (PC Mag, Tech Radar etc).

I do not want a Chromebook and it seems that many reviewers are pushing devices with the Snapdragon processors but I have heard that not all apps will run on this processor.

Anyone have experience with a device using Snapdragon?

Thanks

Can you not just make sure you get an AMD/Intel processor machine?

Unfortunately yes. Microsoft Windows 11 ARM edition works well, so does Microsoft Office. Printing fails. Antivirus doesn't work. Most of the rest of the software either can't be installed or fails to work when you run it.

 

For now, I'd say stay away.
