Why am I returning my Snapdragon X Elite laptop? (should you do the same?)

I am returning my Microsoft Surface 7 Copilot+ laptop with Snapdragon X Elite CPU.
I have used it for around a week and will tell you what I liked, what I disliked and why I decided to send it back.
The full spec of my laptop below:

Microsoft Surface 7 Laptop, model 2037, SKU ZHH-00029
Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite 12 core CPU X1E80100
Qualcomm Adreno GPU
15 inch Pixel Sense touch screen display
16GB LDDDR5 RAM
512 Gen 4 SSD drive ( removable )
Windows 11 for ARM
It costs £1549 for this in UK (which is around $1950 US dollars)

Thank you for watching :)

Misleading clickbait title. Makes you believe that something is bad with new snapdragon laptops but the reason was because creator don't like windows. Meanwhile the majority of the traffic was not some external connections but broadcasting some packets in the local network probably because of continues polling for network devices in the local network. Very biased and clickbait video. Just leave the comment here for others to know.

Wow what a great video and some fresh perspective on these devices. Every review on this device is literally carbon copy of each other, really appreciate you adding ssomething that nobody else is noticing. Subbed! Please keeping more of these.

Also theres a program on windows that debloats all of this stuff and disables telemetry altogether (I think its called winAero? I dont remember). Would be interesting to see if you could use that and run your tests again.

You should have shown packet captures of osx too. This way it does not make sense, you said ubuntu is king yet you still choose mac.

damn the blank Ubuntu wireshark is awesome !

These laptops are garbage until we can install Linux on them

[kriswillems]

It's not a problem of the laptop. It's a problem of the OS. The fact that windows spies on you is well known. Probably you shouldn't have bought it. I would buy this laptop if : 1. It has a very long battery life 2. It runs linux without problems.

Nice that you do, not need be tester Qualcomm, so bad product,

My hope to get a comparable Windows solution to my M1 Max Mac is totally destroyed. It’s getting worse and worse. If I wasn’t working in Unreal Engine that needs a PC to compile for Windows I wouldn’t touch a PC at all. What a shitty system.

arm MAY replace x86 laptops after 6-10 years.
for now no reason to buy them.

[petrm]

absolutely agree, but xelite it is not first generation processor

[freddywayne]

It's not an issue with your laptop or operating system. You did something to it.

[raymondx]

My friend you should have kept the hardware and installed linux :)

[hybridinfodesk]

Why would you get Microsoft? The win 11 digital r8pe kit is the worst I've seen. Add the processor level spy kit, and you will get the shitti3st performance and experience ever. No expectations of it being satisfying.😂

I've moved to Linux and happy so far

Macs are for those who need help getting their shoed on. Windows can do everything. 😏
