I wish Framework offered a laptop with an ARM64 processor.
I have a Surface Laptop 7 with a Snapdragon CPU on Windows 11 and it's been awesome so far. Insane battery life, especially in standby. I can reopen it after 48 hours and it only lost 3% of battery, while it stayed connected to WiFi and received notifications all along.
- nl 1y agoThe difference here is Windows vs Linux, not ARM vs x64 (unfortunately) . Windows on Intel/AMD works just as well.
- fundatus 1y agoThis! Would be an immediate buy from me.
- cpursley 1y agoMy wife loves her (ancient) Surfacebook and is thinking of upgrading. Any comparability issues with the ARM chip?
- timpera 1y agoNo issues so far, almost 1 year in, but I don't use specialized software: only web browsers, Office suite, Obsidian, Dropbox, PowerToys, FileZilla, Putty, VLC, Notepad++, WSL and random .exe utilities. I've found the emulation to be pretty good, but avoid it if you plan to do any gaming.
- notnmeyer 1y agoi also want an arm laptop running linux with good hardware. hearing it a lot too. fingers crossed.
- sylens 1y agoThis is what I'm really waiting for.
