A typical Geekbench 6 single-core score for a laptop Core i5 5 years ago would be a Tiger Lake processor, and score approximately 1,150-1,300, while the multi-core score ranges from approximately 4,000-5,000.
The Snapdragon x1-26-100 has a Geekbench 6 score of 2125 and multi-core of 10596.
Obviously, good for those that understand some apps, drivers, and games will never run on a SnapX cpu, and willing to stick mostly to Microsoft apps for the best compatibility.

Community Reviews
This Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3x is a strong budget Windows on ARM laptop for everyday use, especially web browsing, email, Word, streaming, and other normal tasks. The Snapdragon X chip gets praised for staying cool, quiet, and efficient, with solid battery life, a touch screen, backlit keyboard, fingerprint reader, Wi Fi 7, and USB C charging alongside the included 65W barrel charger. The main caution is compatibility, since some legacy apps, printer drivers, games, and creator or business workflows may need ARM native versions or may not work well. It feels like a capable low cost pick if your software is already ARM friendly.

It has a nice touch screen, backlit keyboard, 16gb RAM that's upgradeable, fast processor, fingerprint reader, and wifi 7 for $300 after cashback. Can't get much better than this

I don't use CCleaner, but this changelog says as of version CCleaner v7.0.984 ARM64 is officially supported:

I have a Snapdragon laptop I can verify the x64 versions of Anydesk and Team Viewer work fine, with no noticeable slow down (I recommend RustDesk though).

Will it run TurboTax? It's the only reason I need a Windows computer in my house.
>Just downloaded TT desktop deluxe 2024 and TT business 2024.
>They both installed fine on MS surface pro 11 on snapdragon X 10 core processor running Windows Home 11 that i just bought this month.
>I do run it in "safe" compatability mode you can set on the properties tab when you right click the TT shortcut that gets created in the desktop.
>I don't know if you absolutely need to do that but I did have issues when testing on TT 2023 so kept it on.

Personally I've never had to tweak the compatibility settings for a legacy app, so that's interesting if it was actually needed.

Here's a video of Counter Strike 2 running on a Snapdragon Plus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTXP7vW
That said, the above videos are for the Plus and Elite, so performance will probably be lower on this model:
Snapdragon X Elite
- GPU Performance: Highest performance, with up to 4.6 TFLOPS.
- CPU: Features 12 Oryon CPU cores for superior multitasking and performance.
- Best For: Users with demanding workloads like video creation and development.
Snapdragon X Plus- GPU Performance: Mid-range performance, with up to 3.8 TFLOPS.
- CPU: Has fewer cores, with some models featuring 10 and others 8.
- Best For: Users who need a balance of performance and power efficiency for everyday productivity tasks.
