Back in 2023, Qualcomm introduced its Oryon core technology at CES to mark a major step forward in PC chip development.
The arrival of Qualcomm’s Oryon core technology has helped develop computer chips that can compete with
Apple products using Apple Silicon chips. Past benchmarks have shown impressive performanc
e from the Snapdragon X Elite and Snap
dragon X Plus, while also ensuring long battery life, with the Asus Vivobook S 15 Snapdragon being able to operate continuously for up to 15 hours in an office environment.
The appearance of Snapdragon X will make Intel feel "breathless".

In addition to superior performance, these new computers are also equipped with significant computi
ng power for artificial intelligence (AI), allowing them to take advantage of exclusive Windows features, e
specially the “Copilot+” feature. However, despite these advantages, Qualcomm chips still have difficulty attracting consumers due to their high price.
Now, Qualcomm has introduced a new version of its Snapdragon X series of chips based on Oryon core technology, simply called “Snapdragon X”. This chip is des
igned by Qualcomm to pave the way for Copilot+ PC systems priced under $600 (VND 15.2 million), thereby helping the company increase its market share.

Snapdragon X not only delivers impressive performance, but also integrates an NPU (AI-dedicated processing unit) with up to 45 TOPS of processing power, enablin
g efficient management of Windows 11's “Copilot+” features. The new architecture also helps Snapdragon X-based PCs have superior battery life and computing power compared to similar products.
There are so many advantages coming to PCs equipped with Snapdragon X chips.

Qualcomm said that many major brands such as Acer, Asus, Dell and HP said they will soon launch PCs running Snapdragon X chips. In addition, Qualcomm is also wo

The good news is that the number of incompatible apps that can run on Snapdragon PCs is growing, with the number of apps “tripling in the past year,” Qualcomm claims. By 2026, Qualcomm says there will be more than 100 Snapdragon-powered PCs on the market.
