Quote from Schillerclan :
What does Windows on ARM mean? Do you not recommend this for gaming?
Kernel level cheat protection is a minefield for windows on arm. There has been a strong push recently to remedy this (I think epic and fortnight are compatible now), but I believe gaming is probably the most problematic software genre for snapdragon currently.

I tried some older games on snapdragon x-26-100 and it wasn't pretty. Maybe your research skills are better than mine, but I had to hit reddit and other forums several times, just trying to get fallout new vegas, to run and still ended up with graphical glitches and performance issues that I never got around to remedying. Some of the performance falls on the shoulder's of the 26-100, but I'd still be wary of snapdragon if you game a lot. There are sites that list compatibility and you can see if what you want to run is supported. windowsonarm.org might be a good place to start.

This deal uses the Snapdragon X Elite processor, which is older 2024 model. There's a newer X2 processor version of this Lenovo Slim that is a significant (30% single core, 50% multicore) improvement compared to this older X processor.

Considering if it's worth it ... a new X2 model from Lenovo website is currently $900 for similar specs (actually it's 1TB SSD). So $340 more a significantly better ARM cpu, new condition, and twice HD capacity.

So I don't know, I think I'd rather wait for a deal on the X2.

Just making sure people don't fall for Arm laptop crap... Thatz all.. They need to understand only 2-3% of the people use Windows on Arm and nobody cares for them until it goes fire sale
Sure, the number of Windows users on ARM is a minority. But also the majority of people won't run into issues with this because all they're doing is Netflix and web browsing, not playing games.

Like anything else on slickdeals, knowing what you want to do and matching it with the device specs is the key. ARM windows PC's are new, so it's important to flag that on every ARM laptop deal, but it being ARM isn't a blanket don't buy. Most people are probably fine with it, and actually benefit more from the low power consumption and battery life.

Quote from Lazarous86 :
I disagree completely. ARM is going to grow substantially over the next 5 years. X86 architect is just too power hungry vs the performance it delivers. Valve is already working on a compatability layer for ARM because of gaming. If MS wants any piece of this pie they need to build their own or lose OS market share to Valves new OS as it becomes available.
I have snapdragon plus 10 core on my microsoft surface and it works great.

They aren't all on firesale. But thankfully, some are. In case you haven't noticed (I know you have) ALL LAPTOPS are FREAKING ridiculously high priced now. This particular deal is for a LAST GEN Snapdragon laptop so no surprise it's on sale.

Instead of bashing a new technology, your time as a public service announcer would be better spent going through all the laptop threads and complaining how they're too damn expensive.

Only Fair condition available...and cannot add more RAM.
You can't add more RAM on almost any modern thin-and-light laptop. That's nothing new or surprising.

Arm may be the future for Windows but it is not the present.
It is not possible for me to run what I need to run on an arm based Windows laptop nor can I reasonably substitute Apple, Linux or Chrome. It is possible for me to run every single program I need to on x86 with no issues, research or troubleshooting.
Lots of those x86 laptops have a battery that last longer than I will ever use it in a day and are very powerful.
It is what it is, arm+Windows beta testing and for some cheerleading. Cool, I appreciate it, seriously. It is true the market has to grow before compatibility is fully available in order to give reason for and fund making things compatible.

Quote from Hat-Trick :
Every new technology has to start somewhere. You choose to ignore all the positive reviews and all the people who comment how well it works for them. All you're doing is endlessly making sure people know YOUR opinion. It's people like you spreading misinformation that hinders Windows ARM from becoming something. It's people like ME, who bought a Zenbook A16 w/48GB RAM, a 3K OLED and one of the fastest ARM chips in a Windows laptop, for $1400 that helps this technology grow. Windows ARM popularity can only get better since Intel can't seem to innovate anymore. But hey, stick with your same ol', same ol' Intel chips. They're about as boring as a new Apple iPhone -- same thing as the last 5 years, just a bit faster and a bit more efficient.
Panther Lake.. please get current... lunar lake was a major leap as well

Real Experience: Over 2yrs later; Bought an X2, & to this day - watch out for print drivers & scanners vendor supported apps . (HP/Brother/Epson) Lots of apps dont run. So check you required vendor apps for Snapdragon compatibility (b4 you buy). It is a bit unnerving that over the last 2yrs there has been minimal progress on adoption of Snapdragon/arm apps to Win11.

is google earth pro natively supported? How about Edraw Max, Visio? I use those and some other rendering tools on Windows and WireGuard is also sort of important. If Win on ARM is still not there with these, it's going to be a challenge getting off x86... I am tempted by this deal!

I purchased a 512GB MacBook Neo earlier this year but prefer windows. The lack of a backlit keyboard also annoys me more than I thought it would. Any opinions on trading the Neo for this?
I would absolutely choose this over a Macbook Neo. Faster, way better screen, backlit KB. If you prefer Windows to MacOS, this is a no brainer. The feel of the laptop is very comparable to a MBA.

Did lenovo ever add conservation mode (battery limit/bypass charging) to their vantage (or whatever their app is called)? I was really disappointed I had to burn through battery cycles and/or charge over 80 on the spin 3x while docked.
You could limit charging to 80% on a yoga 7i 8th gen...that's all I can say
