I’m searching for a Notebook and I came across one that had a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c which grabbed my attention… My main concern was that the processor specs says:

  • Instruction Set: ARMv8-A64 (64 bit)
  • Architecture: Kryo 468

Main questions:

  • Does Linux already supports this processor?
  • What I should look at? Instruction Set (A64) or Architecture (Kyro)?

If you have time to spend… How this CPU compares with an i3 6157U?

    That’s correct, mea culpa; I’ve only seriously worked with qcom so entirely forgot that’s a thing. I’ll update my comment, thanks!
