Before the end of the year we could have the first laptop with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 inside

One of the revelations we had at the beginning of the year was the future compatibility between x86 applications and ARM processors. A compatibility fruit of the work that Qualcomm and Microsoft were carrying out and for which the launch of a computer equipped inside with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor was expected .

It would be the first of its kind and could be a revolution in the Windows ecosystem The Snapdragon 835 is the most recent processor so far from Qualcomm, the one that has inside the Galaxy S8, the Nokia 8 or the brand new Galaxy Note 8.But to this day we have not heard anything else.

A lack of information that Windowslatest points out could be coming to an end. And it is that the first team to opt for this combination is almost ready and could reach the market before the end of the current year. This is at least what Qualcomm has revealed at IFA 2017.

At the Berlin fair, the American company drew subtle lines in which it saw itself as the project to run ARM applications on a computer, right now it will stop being a chimera to become a reality.

An ultraportable that would arrive with integrated LTE connectivity thanks to the modem used by the processor and that would be more than capable for everyday tasks

The 10 nanometers of said processor would take care of this, which would serve to make the heart of a team that almost certainly presents an _ultrabook_ design A first laptop based above all on performance and lightness, since it does not require a cooling system, it will be more compact while offering better performance. In addition, the inclusion of this chip will allow these devices to have an integrated LTE connection, although we do not know if they will come with the option of using a SIM (in any of its variants) or will use an eSIM.

A new type of equipment that only awaits manufacturers who dare to put them on the market and in this sense they come to the mind the best-known brands such as HP, Asus, Acer or Lenovo. Therefore, there are very few months left to get to know this first team and see all that it can give of itself and if it really manages to stand up in a segment as complicated as ultraportables. _Would you give it a chance?_
