This year marked one of the biggest moments in Windows history with the adoption of Snapdragon X in the Copilot+ PC line. The laptops in this line are huge moves forward in allowing Windows devices to compete with MacBooks. Battery life and efficient performance are the name of the game, and these laptops have it in spades.

Weird. Positioning Chromebook as missed-opportunity because Windows has more efficient battery life? Mmmm. Nah.

Also I have a chromebook that will do what little bit I need it to do for 15 hours on one charge. I guarantee the snapdragon windows OS will not browse the web and be an ssh terminal for that long on a single charge
