Qualcomm’s ambitious Snapdragon X laptop push has fallen short, with only 720,000 units sold globally in Q3 2024, representing less than 1% of the AI PC market. Despite sequential growth, the platform remains a niche player, facing stiff competition from x86 chipmakers.
Despite the hype surrounding AI-powered PCs, a new TrendForce report reveals that the surge in laptop sales in 2024 is primarily driven by the Windows 11 upgrade, not AI features. High prices and limited consumer benefits for AI PCs are key factors.
