Qualcomm promises better AI for its next Snapdragon PC chip
Here's a sign that the troubled Windows on Snapdragon platform isn't going away anytime soon: Qualcomm is announcing today its new made-for-PC processor based on ARM design. The Snapdragon 8cx Gen 2 follows up 2018's Snapdragon 8cx, and back then the company said the "x" in the name stood for "extreme" power. This year's model offers better AI performance and support for newer standards of WiFi and Bluetooth, but doesn't appear to run any faster than before. Acer and HP both also announced today that they'll be offering laptops with the new chipset, with Acer's Spin 7 being the first to use it. HP's product will be a business-centric notebook, and the company said more information will be shared later this year.
