Asus introduces cheaper Zenbook A16 options (lightweight premium laptop with Snapdragon inside)

The Asus Zenbook A16 is a premium thin and light laptop with a 16 inch display, a 70 Wh battery, and a body that weighs less than 3 pounds and measures 16.5mm (0.65″) thick.

Asus introduced the laptop during CES in January and it went on sale in April. But at the time the only model available was a $1699 version with a 2880 x 1800 pixel, 120 Hz OLED display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 Elite […]

Excuse me, but #ARM for gaming will only be successful with Valve and #FEX.

Whatever does #NVIDIA and #Qualcomm for laptops with great graphics is a moot point.

#Windows11 is "getting there" so there is pressure for online gaming and anti-cheat, and the #SteamDeck exists.

It's more about a software problem rather than a #Windows problem, IMHO.

Lilbits: Qualcomm launches Snapdragon X2 Elite and Extreme PC chips and Snapdragon 8 Elite for mobile

Qualcomm’s next-gen PC and mobile chips are coming soon, and you probably won’t be shocked to learn that the company is promising big performance gains. While the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 is expected to bring some nice improvements to smartphones and tablets, I’m particularly interested in the new Snapdragon X2 Elite and X2 Extreme processors for Windows PCs.

That’s because while […]

Ubuntu will improve ARM64 support

Ubuntu had conducted a very interesting test for the ARM64 processor architecture support on a Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite machine during the development of Ubuntu 24.10. It was a huge success, seeing as the ARM64 laptops and desktops are being more popular in today’s computer stores, alongside the existing ARM64 machines.

As Ubuntu 25.04 Plucky Puffin gets closer to the stable release, the Ubuntu team is considering improving support for the ARM64 machines, especially those that use the Snapdragon X Elite processors. The ubuntu-x1e-settings meta-package, which is necessary for such computers, has been promoted to the main repository. At the same time, the qcom-firmware-extract package, which is necessary for Qualcomm machines and is a script that provides a way to extract Qualcomm firmware files from the Windows partition and to create a Debian package for a specific machine, has been uploaded to the universe repository. The script currently provides support for the following Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite machines, with more machines to be added to the list:

• Acer Swift 14 AI (SF14-11)
• ASUS Vivobook S 15
• Dell XPS 13 9345
• HP Omnibook X 14
• Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6
• Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x
• Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 (13.8 inch)
• Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge

The Linux kernel package and the Ubuntu installer will be updated to support such machines to make sure that they run Ubuntu without any problems. This is going to be done starting from 25.04 to make sure that the next LTS, which will be released in the next April, runs flawlessly on such machines.

Alongside that, the Ubuntu team plans to improve support for all ARM64 machines by distributing a single working Ubuntu ISO file for ARM64 systems and by eliminating device-specific installers to make installing Ubuntu on such systems easier than never before. This will be a single official Ubuntu image that works on all the platforms, be it an Ampere powered workstation, a Snapdragon X Elite laptop, an ARM64 server, or in a virtual machine on your Apple Silicon Mac.

The Raspberry Pi machines will also experience improved system compatibility by changing the camera stack to work with such machines. The new PiSP driver has been added to the camera stack to make sure that the Raspberry Pi machines be able to use the camera on Ubuntu, in addition to the rpicam-apps (userspace apps), picamera2 (Python API for camera), and their dependencies. This allows for a smooth migration from the original OS, which is Raspberry Pi OS.

However, the AI features for the official AI camera that uses the Sony IMX500 imaging sensor are not available in this version of Ubuntu due to licensing concerns, but the Ubuntu team will be working on it to resolve the licensing issues so that Raspberry Pi machines will be able to use the AI features for such cameras outside the original OS.
