I have the slim 3x, also ARM. It's pretty neat. It has something like a 12 hr battery life, which was great on a long flight. Many everyday programs are available for ARM: Chrome, Office... actually that's about it. VLC is on ARM, but it had some pretty glaring problems so I'm using Screenbox I think. There are a lot of other ARM-compiled programs that I had never heard of, and I like most everything I tried.
Anything requiring a driver probably won't work. You may get lucky with a basic device like a webcam that typically uses built-in Windows drivers. I don't believe the emulators work on drivers at all.
As far as emulated x86 and x64 programs, a lot of smaller programs work fine. Multi-gigabyte programs like Solidworks don't stand a chance. Turbotax doesn't work. Fusion 360 kind of works, some modules just don't work or crash the program, others work fine. There are a lot of websites that list programs as ARM compatible, but for some reason many of these simply don't work and I don't know what these websites get out of adding them to the list.
I suggest buying a Snapdragon laptop as a toy. See what works, what doesn't, what the advantages and disadvantages are. Ask software suppliers for nice compatible and efficient ARM versions of their programs. Do not expect to buy one of these as a replacement for an x86/x64 computer, at least not for a while. Apple switched everything to ARM. Microsoft is pushing toward ARM. ARM is the future, but it's not the present.

PS: This site actually takes you to ARM compatible download pages, it doesn't just say things work on ARM.

Windows on ARM! 🤮🤮🤮 That's a lot of compatibility headache. Even X86 won't run as it should every now and again. Now that Panther Lake is competitive, there is no reason to switch. Maybe 10 years from now. Maybe. The only way manufacturers can sell Windows on ARM is when they sell at massive discounts (at a loss). People are willing to pay 2x for X86.

Community Reviews

This Yoga Slim 7x stands out as a thin, light Windows laptop with excellent battery life, a gorgeous 14 inch OLED touch screen, and strong everyday responsiveness. It is praised for office work, web browsing, streaming, and light creative tasks, with some reports that DaVinci Resolve, Photoshop, Steam, and even a few games run well. The main caution is Windows on ARM compatibility, especially for drivers, printers, USB peripherals, niche apps, and some developer tools. It feels best suited to general use and portability, not demanding software or hardware-heavy workflows.

Common Questions (5)

  • Small x86/x64 apps often run fine, and native ARM apps like DaVinci Resolve can work well. Larger or driver-heavy software can fail or crash, and GPU-dependent tools such as some photo/video editors may be hit-or-miss, so it is safer for everyday productivity than for specialized creative or engineering workloads.

    DeeDonmadcow3417mahesh299neoyouaretheone

  • It is a strong fit for web, email, Office, streaming, and other normal productivity, and several owners use it as a MacBook Air replacement. It is a weaker choice for developers, niche engineering apps, gaming, or hardware that depends on special drivers, so those users may be better off staying with x86.

    lizard5102thund3rsh0ckCrimsonHamster6421pellpell4

  • Basic USB devices can work, but anything that needs a custom driver may not. A Canon MF634Cdw scanner/printer reportedly works with basic functionality, while an external webcam and other driver-dependent devices may not, so peripherals are the main compatibility risk.

    lizard5102jcrackenessix

  • Yes. Owners describe battery life as excellent, with one reporting about 12 hours on a Slim 3x and others calling the standby battery life wonderful and the battery life insanely good. It is one of the strongest reasons to buy this ARM model.

    madcow3417jcrackenJollyHerring1776

  • For light everyday use it can be fine, but heavier ARM Windows use may feel sluggish with 16GB, especially because the memory is soldered and cannot be upgraded later. One owner specifically said they would want 32GB for smoother performance.

Got this one. I needed something that I could move around easily (Weight Starting at 1.28kg / 2.82lbs) . I'm sending my current laptop to an engineer cousin in the Philippines, and my tablet to some other cousin. This will replace my laptop and my tablet as I'm getting old and mainly use my devices for browsing tech and social media. I also use linux, so let the CHALLENGE BEGIN ! Note: The ID.ME did not get any more discounts. Pretty sure this coupon code negates that.

Seems fine for everyday use cases but wouldn't do it if you're a dev or need a lot of applications. ARM on Windows sounds like a nightmare

This Lenovo Slim 7x is much better than the Acer in terms of the build quality and screen quality. This is actually a good deal. For office use, web browsing, remote dev, and similar use cases, it should be great. However, if you want to run very specific engineering or specific domain applications (like some DJ'ing software), or play medium or high-end games, it is not the best choice because of WoA and its low-end GPU.

Can you give me one LOGICAL reason as to why? This isn't for gaming.

No fingerprint scanner which is a dealbreaker for me. I use it frequently to log into websites.

I'm typing from this right now - got it a couple weeks ago on the same deal. It was to replace a MacBook Air M4 - verdict? THIS PRICE IS AN ABSOLUTE STEAL. I would absolutely call this a fantastic MacBook air replacement for Windows.
Pros
Monitor is amazingly beautiful
I haven't run into ANY of the compatibility issues
Plays Phasmophobia and other games with 0 issues, but I'm not a FPS snob either

Cons
Gets much hotter than the MacBook did when gaming

Seriously, for the price, buy this while you can. I assume they're getting rid of overstock because of people who hear ARM and run, but this acts like a normal laptop for me.
Some programs I use daily:
Office Suite
Steam
Google Drive (You do have to download an ARM specific one) Otherwise, works the same.
Photoshop

Bought this on another front page deal when Best Buy was selling used ones for 4-500. I got a fair one for like 4 that was in great condition, and for my use case it's more than enough, the screen is really nice, speakers are decently loud, facial recognition works great, etc, but I'm not a developer, looking to play Black Myth:Wukong at ultra high levels, 4k editing and stuff, so your mileage may vary.
