Do you think qualcomm have a chance at taking marketshare from intel?

Can Snapdragon performance match that of Intel?
Bentley Young
Not one bit. Windows 10S is a guaranteed flop because the Windows Store is deserted, and there are no Android alternatives to the iPad Pro and Surface Pro.

I think they do. But the funny thing is that even if they don't, they can out-produce x86 with zillions of cheap ARM devices and suffocate them slowly anyway.
Does performance matter as much as battery life in mobile devices? Especially for normies? Nope. Why do you think x86 failed so hard in mobile space in the first place? Despite Intel literally dumping their crappy Atoms on the market.

Intel cannot match amd
Qualcomm is litterally amd rejects.

I'm pretty sure these devices aren't running Windows 10 S. The W10S boogieman is only showing up in devices aimed at educational sectors. It's a ChromeOS competitor.

If they actually made desktop class processors at a good price point maybe.

>Implying the rapidly shrinking desktop market even matters much anymore
>Implying ARM can't eat Intel's lunch in the laptop and server markets
Performance is only one factor in CPUs. It turns out efficiency and scaleability are pretty important as well. When you have a CPU that's only good at low core count high clockspeed performance computing, it shouldn't surprise you when it gets beaten in other areas.
Jack Baker
No not yet, but they are plenty powerful enough for media playback, and shitposting.

lolno
Even worse AMD is getting ready to rape intel with raven ridge APUs. I don't think qualcum ever stood a chance.
