Like what? I dont have a single non-native app on my device.
Google Drive [desktop client]. Google says they will port it, but I haven't heard anything new about it.
EDIT:
I think Private Internet Access VPN client doesn't work on ARM-Windows either, if you travel use that VPN client. I had to use alternate client. I am guessing things that require drivers has higher chance not not working with x64 versions of the drivers.

I also don't think Google made a native Chrome browser for ARM-Windows yet, though x64 does run. Firefox has ARM native browser.

If you don't care about gaming on it and want something that has a ton of battery life and is quiet then I think these arm based Windows surfaces work great. All the mainstream software is quickly adding ARM support, it can run x86 software but it just won't run it at full performance. I like the Surface hardware too, feels premium and the screens look great, yeah it's not an OLED but I don't care. It's definitely not a "do-it-all" device, but it's nice to throw in my bag and go and not worrying about charging it all the time.

I have been using a Pro X for a couple years or so but it's not my primary device. Overall, everything I have installed on it runs, early on it was a train wreck. Obviously everyone's mileage may vary but I have been pleasantly surprised with the updates to ensure compatibility and this device since those early days. Had some issues with Defender, other EDR and VPN clients but all those have been resolved as well. For WSL, I did use this or try early on and it was not great but I did get a couple needed apps running. With the App Store being dropped I literally stopped using it so can't speak for its state today. If you want certainty and zero headaches, I would sit on the sidelines for another year or two. If you are a technologist and want to dive in, now is the time. If it does not work out, return. If you're in Columbus, I'll buy your open box return next week for even less so hurry up.

Larger screen, lower resolution, 30% heavier. Which one has better built quality?
Also no keyboard included with this, but I'm sure the Surface build quality is much better

The BB price match was easy with the chat. Ended up getting the blue, that one also had the best saving on the keyboard model and pen. $228

This thing NEW costs only $80 more than a two year old x86 Surface Pro 9 REFURBISHED with only 256GB of SSD space when on sale!!!
That tells you all you need to know about the uptake of Windows on ARM... If there is low uptake, app support will also remain low. That's just a fact of life / capitalism.
Still a good deal for those who don't mind if applications don't work well (or at all) occasionally.
It's funny how YouTubers rave about windows on ARM laptops with their affiliate links while daily driving an x86 laptop or a MacBook...

Nah, this is not one of those type items. It's still an arm processor which still has compatibility issues and will continue to drop in price as more lunar lake laptops come out. Most snapdragon x laptops will be 600 or less by January is my prediction.
Snapdragon AI laptop is a failure?

Do these have GPS, or do you still need to buy a cellular model to get that?

Compatibility landscape is changing fast. Chrome got a Windows ARM version in March. PIA released a beta a few months ago and Google Drive just added a beta today.
