Frequently asked questions
No. We have seen incredible momentum on the ISV and Developer front working with Microsoft and 3rd party developers to deliver most of the top 300 applications to Windows on Snapdragon ecosystem in time for launch. The productivity, multimedia, social media, and creativity applications most popular for PC users are now native to Windows on Snapdragon or emulated. (See images below) Users can expect seamless experiences whether within the Office Suite, chatting on Zoom, editing in Photoshop, or streaming through Netflix or Spotify. This momentum continues to get stronger by the day and the apps ecosystem is stronger than ever providing great user experiences. Learn more about the growing catalog of commercial software solutions for Snapdragon PCs here. Here you can reference consumer applications. Nonetheless, Microsoft and Qualcomm remain committed to the developer community, and have resources to help address application compatibility issues, should they arise.
AI on device is designed such that your queries and personal information remain solely on-device, hence, helping to maintain privacy and security. For example, when entering queries through a cloud API for Stable Diffusion, all your information or ideas are sent to the cloud server of some company. You may not have control over who has access to that piece of data. On-device AI mitigates that concern since your prompts stay solely on the device. For enterprises, this could be an even bigger issue where the company’s confidential information needs to be protected.
Hundreds of the most popular Windows apps are optimized to run on Snapdragon, with more being developed and launched all the time. Whether running apps natively or in emulation, Snapdragon X Series processors enable remarkable device performance.
Snapdragon X Elite provides significantly longer battery life, with up to 40% longer for Microsoft 365 apps, 43% longer for local video playback, 58% longer for web browsing, and 89% longer for YouTube streaming compared to Intel Core Ultra 7*.
