Qualcomm is supposed to launch new laptop chips(snapdragon x series) and they are supported to be 21% master than Apple M3 muti-core performance.

Qualcomm has not given much details but it will be interesting to see performance numbers for 23Watt profile. Even if you can match M1/M2 performance that would be big step up from x86

Edit: looks like 23 watt performance is more or less the same https://www.anandtech.com/show/21112/qualcomm-snapdragon-x-e...
