This is misstated. I believe halluc1nati0n meant to say "not all Windows apps are going to run out of the box." The way it was stated reads as if no Windows apps are going to run, which is completely incorrect.

This model is running a Snapdragon processor, which is Arm64 architecture. It's basically a modified phone/tablet processor. As such, at present, it can't run 64 bit x86 Windows apps. It can however run Arm32/64 apps natively and can run 32 bit x86 using built-in emulation. It's something to watch out for.

This device is really meant for entertainment/email/Office/web browsing. I've got a Surface Pro X which has the same processor and all that works really well. This processor is great for long battery life, not getting hot, no fans (so silent), and connected standby (instant on).

Who else is here because the FP Title says $39.99 and not the $239.99 as it should be?

Keep in mind that this is ARM based. All windows apps are not going to run out of the box.

What does that mean, or what happens? Winamp won't work?

IMO the better deal if you're willing to jump through a few hoops and can spend a bit more is the base Galaxy Book Pro with iPad 9.7 trade-in for $442. You can easily get a used iPad 9.7 on eBay for $40. It also comes with the Galaxy Buds Pro, which you can sell for $100 without issues. So net cost would be about $400.

Are you sure? The Best Buy listing says QLED which owning a QLED Samsung laptop, are gorgeous.

This thing already features a mid-low range pocessor and only 4GB RAM, I cant imagine it doesnt at least have a nice display for nearly $300.

Edit: probably right "The Samsung laptop is as dim as a dying flashlight, emanating a 201-nit brightness average"

This is interesting. Why throw a window 10 as the OS on it then?

We are talking about Galaxy Book Go aren't we? QLED would have been for higher end models. There's complaints all over wrt this model. You can check out some of the online reviews. E.g. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Sam...454.0.html

Guess they are trying to differentiate with the Chromebook lineup. Although ARM Windows has never been relevant, somehow it's still around...
