In an interesting turn of events, the first device boasting the highest-end version of Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Elite chipset isn't even a laptop. It's a Mini PC in the form of an official Dev Kit, which undercuts (or at least matches) the price of even the lower-end Snapdragon X Plus laptops, and it's set for a full launch on August 23rd, though it's also already available for pre-order on Arrow.com for just $899 USD.
We just reviewed a Snapdragon X Elite laptop— the Dell XPS 13 9345— and that unit retails for $1299, which is about $400 pricier for the laptop form factor.
