"The premium integrated Qualcomm® Adreno™ GPU delivers stunning graphics for immersive entertainment. Snapdragon X Elite supports this supercharged performance with low-power consumption for up to multi-day battery life on a single charge."

This is ALL ON Qualcomm. They were the ones that demoed the games, they should have demoed a less graphically intense game if they didn't want people to believe it can play games. They demo one of the biggest games at the time, of course people are thinking to think it can play games.

So many games also just stutter randomly and many just crash due to incompatibility issues.. Qualcomm needs to start issuing driver updates monthly like they said..

and releasing new skus of the x plus model with single core boost right after releasing the surface pro 11 x plus? what a bad look.

Yeah I wanted to come here and dump all over this idea, but you bring up a fantastic point, @diminishedfifth...

This is a good article but the question is would you have gone to this length to defend other companies like Intel or AMD? Then why are you defending Qualcomm? Are they sponsoring you?

There are a lot of useless reports in tech these days. Either defend all or just sit tight. Don't be an hypocrite.

The timing is definitely interesting, as Paul Thurott brought up in the Windows Weekly podcast...it's almost like Intel wanted these articles out there at a very specific time for some reason....
