Bottom line, people are having an issue with familiarity, returning a
Windows ARM device.  It didn't operate quite the same way.  Duh, it's
a good thing, it's superior tech for a laptop.  Don't just return it.

"Compatibility issues are, of course, thought to be the primary reason why 
people return Snapdragon X-based systems to retailers."

RT redux.  Hopefully the same vicious cycle won't repeat. 

Consumers:
"This thing won't run my favorite Windows app. I'm taking it back!"

Developers:
"Those things aren't selling. We're not going to waste time writing native 
Arm apps."

Industry Rags:
"Low sales suggests another Microsoft flop. Share price delining."

Lol, yeah, this is just growing pains.  Once people actually realize
the benefit of ARM for a laptop, this trend will seem meaningless and
forgotten.

Lenovo is claiming a 28 hour battery life. Is that a truly compelling 
reason to go with ARM? Battery life has always been featured in  laptop 
reviews but they have to write about something. It's like a long article 
about why the 2025 Toyota is so much better than the 2024 Toyota. 

I may not be the typical laptop user. I can't remember when the two next 
to me were unplugged other than the 6 day power outage in July. Sure, I 
see people using laptops in the library but the new library had outlets 
all over the place as does my favorite espresso place.

People have developed laptop usage patterns over the last 25 years or so.

I hope you're right. Microsoft has a way of fucking incredibly simple 
things up. Apple is already offering what Microsoft is promising so if 
using ARM is that important, people should go that route.

Considering Microsoft's spotty history when it comes to transitions of 
any kind, I would expect them to abandon ARM entirely if computer using 
that architecture don't set the world on fire in their first year of 
availability.

People probably don't need 24-hour battery life, but they will be 
thrilled to have it either way. My gaming laptop boasted of ten-hour 
battery life when I got it and it can definitely do that if you don't 
use the horrible software ASUS provides you by default. I usually have a 
power outlet near wherever I use the computer, but I didn't have one as 
I was correcting yesterday and needed to look at the students' workbook 
on the screen all the while entering grades. I was hoping that I'd have 
enough juice to last the three hours I was there. In the end, I used 
about 25% battery in viewing the original book on screen and listening 
to a local radio station which talked about the Canadiens's horrible 
loss the night before. In other words, decent battery life not only 
allowed me to get the job done but to enjoy myself while doing boring work.

However, notice that I was apprehensive about the laptop having enough 
battery life for the task despite knowing that it can usually handle ten 
hours without issue. My habit of keeping the machine plugged makes me 
fear not having the adapter around. Meanwhile, when I had a MacBook Air 
M1, I was so used to not having an adapter around that I wouldn't have 
feared not having enough battery life. Once you experience the latter, 
you get addicted to it and don't want to return to a life where you feel 
it necessary to lug around anything other than the laptop itself. The 
battery life of machines is indeed going to be a major selling point in 
the very near future.

My take is that a "long hours" laptop life needs to not be BS in order 
to actually be of benefit.  I can recall getting a new Thinkpad at work 
at one point which bragged about 8 hours ... and when just running 
MS-Office stuff, reality was more like 2.5 hours.

Agreed.  Apple's M hardware machines are already there.  Its now up to 
the WinTel world to catch up...

...and for Linux too, if they've not done a good job porting their OS & 
Apps to the Apple M architecture.

That's why I usually take claims made by PC manufacturers with a grain 
of salt. Even the ten hours claim made by ASUS for this machine didn't 
seem too believable. It is, after all, quite theoretical. However, if 
you allow the battery to charge to 100% and remove the software ASUS 
itself supplies with the machine, you can get a discharge of about 5.5 
to 7.5mW on average on a battery which charges to 76,000mW. The battery 
will wear out fairly quickly though so that 76,000 number will turn to 
74,000 to 72,000 to 67,000 to 60,000 very quickly. I imagine that if 
they adopted slow charging from 80% to 100% like Apple does, they could 
limit the wear though.

I'd say it is unbelievable had Apple not already done it several times 
before. You can count on them to get things right because they excel 
across the board. They made the transition from 68000 to PowerPC 
seamless for most users. Similarly, they made the transition from 9.2.2 
to OS X easy by having the old OS load in the background to run the 
aging apps on the new OS. Somehow, they even made the transition from 
PowerPC to Intel mostly transparent to users with only performance being 
an issue (to be expected). Clearly, when they decided to move to their 
own processors, people with a good knowledge of Apple's history could 
not help but be excited because there was no way they could screw it up 
and, frankly, they haven't. Even though I no longer have one (mostly out 
of a concern that the machine would die from the SSD wearing out), there 
is no doubt in my mind that the MacBook is a superior work machine than 
any PC I could buy because of its complete lack of distractions, its 
consistently stellar performance, its phenomenal battery life and its 
rock-solid stability.

Higher performance per watt which leads to lower power use and therefore 
improved battery life. Whether Intel and AMD want to admit it or not, 
people _do_ want to have a computer which can handle a whole day's work 
on a single charge and which won't increase electrical bills.

While I agree that most people want longer battery life for their laptops, I 
really don't think the cost of charging a laptop is that big of a concern.

Not to a person who lives in an area where electricity is cheap. 
However, it is only going to become more expensive in places like Europe 
where its production depend on a resource acquired from Russia. The same 
way they switched to fuel-efficient or electric cars to lower their 
reliance on gasoline, they are probably going to switch to 
energy-efficient machines to reduce their need for electricity altogether.

If things are getting that dire in Europe they're going to have to learn 
to live without computers at all.

If this were the 80s and Europe were facing these issues, I imagine that 
either Atari or Commodore would have produced a very efficient computer 
which would only need to be charged once daily. Let's not forget how 
popular the ST and the Amiga were over there while they were failing 
miserably in North America. Because both companies are dead, the most 
likely scenario is that they will move to the efficient machines made by 
Apple or equipped with Qualcomm's processors. I do not think that their 
energy crisis is going to get better anytime soon.

I'm sorry, but I'm skeptical that the electricity needed to charge a laptop 
is that big of a concern, even in Europe.

In that case, you should look at how Germany's economy is tanking, 
specifically the result of a lack of cheap oil coming in from Russia. 
You can imagine that the smaller supply of oil will result in electrical 
production being more expensive and for the power bills to be much 
higher for the average German. As a result, they are not as likely as 
they once might have been to buy the powerful PC which requires 800W of 
power to play a game every hour.

I don't have to "imagine" that the lack of cheap Russian gas is hurting 
Germany's economy (that's plain to see every day in the international news). 
I'm just having trouble imagining that this is resulting in angst about the 
amount of electricity required to charge a laptop.

I purposely use low power laptops and micro desktops because it's all I need 
and I don't like the background sound of fans. These all run Intel CPUs 
(except for the Wyse 5060 thin client desktop — it uses a low power AMD 
CPU).

And, as usual, the standard disclaimer, I don't play Windows' video games or 
use high-end (watt gobbling) GPUs. I'm not sure, though, that ARM chips will 
be running these games in the future. (I guess we'll see.)

If the price you pay for electricity doubles, you are likely to look at 
the devices in your house and make changes in the kind of machine you 
buy. The promise of charging once a day rather than keeping a machine 
plugged is likely to be a benefit to a European. The people of North 
America probably won't care as much since power is cheap here.

ARM might, but I don't care to stick around to find out. At best, I 
would imagine that ARM will play today's games as well as today's x86-64 
PCs around 2027 or so through some compatibility layer. If it happens 
sooner, all the better.

Hypotheticals. I'll remain skeptical that this will be a major issue. 
(Unless, of course, there is no power at all — which may be a reality in 
Europe if they keep going down the destructive paths they've chosen. In that 
case keeping food from spoiling will probably take priority over laptop 
charging — of any kind).

I'm guessing the power required to run Windows complex video games will not 
fit in ARM's low-power "wheelhouse." But we'll see. As I've mentioned (many 
times now) I'm not a game player.

Only as long as whatever work you do doesn't depend on you having a 
computer.

ARM being low-power doesn't mean that it is low-performance. As the 
Apple processors have shown, they're a lot more powerful than x86-64 
processors on single-core applications. They're only worse on multi-core 
and even then, not by much. ARM basically allows people to have 
performance like they currently have but through much less battery power.
