It’s crazy you have to go like four comments deep and into the sub convo before you find mention of windows on arm- apple silicon is just so dominant in the zeitgeist for people who think about this stuff
If there were a Windows on ARM laptop that blew peoples' socks off (the way the M1 MacBooks did initially), it'd make waves but that has yet to happen.
The initial round of Snapdragon laptops had battery life that was better than what Intel/AMD machines were capable of, but not quite MacBook level and performance wasn't quite there either. Then Intel's Lunar Lake came out and was about as good or better with none of the compatibility problems, basically stealing Qualcomm's thunder.
