The company aims to target both developers and consumers with their Snapdragon 7cx processor. Many users can’t afford to buy Snapdragon 8cx laptops which are available at a higher price. On the other hand, we can see that the existing and upcoming applications need to be optimized for ARM chips as well. Qualcomm is not the only company that wants to jump into this domain. The search giant was previously interested in developing a Chrome browser with ARM-optimization.
