    Apparently, it isn’t as good as Apple’s ARM processor

    Not from what my searching shows, the X1P curbstomps the M1.

    AMD processors are almost what you’re looking for - low-power processors, highly performant iGPU, bang for buck

    I’ve used a laptop with a (i think it was) Ryzen 5 5500u and it was the complete opposite of that. Lags on midnight protocol (game), it cost almost 1000euros, aka the same price as the Surface Pro 11 here, and it hit peaks of 101C, averaging at 70.

    I’ve started looking more into getting an ARM laptop. I know a bloke who has an M1 Macbook and it has indescribable battery life without sacrificing performance. Apple is out of the question due to their walled garden, though (I don’t want to get sucked into their ecosystem and end up with an iPhone, Apple Watch, and who knows what else), so Snapdragon X series it is for me.
