Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme early tests beat out AMD, Intel, and Apple as the most powerful mobile chip on the market but price uncertainty still remains a sticking point

Snapdragon X2 Elite.

Just last week, we saw the announcement of Snapdragon's next range of chips, and this came with lofty claims. Qualcomm called it "Snapdragon's biggest advance in PC gaming", promising significantly more power per watt than Strix Point and Arrow Lake, as well as better GPU efficiency than Lunar Lake.

Tom's Hardware was invited out to test out both the Snapdragon X2 Elite and X2 Elite Extreme chips recently, reporting test scores that look fittingly great.
