What is ARM on Windows?

If you've been seeing 'ARM' pop up everywhere in laptop reviews lately, here's what you need to know.

ARM processors represent a completely different approach to computing than the Intel and AMD chips that have powered Windows PCs for decades—and in 2024, they finally became good enough to seriously consider.

The basics:

ARM uses simpler, more efficient design than traditional x86 processors—same technology powering every smartphone
All components integrated into one chip (System-on-Chip design) for maximum efficiency.

Why it matters for you:

14-20 hour battery life compared to 6-8 hours on Intel laptops—work all day without a charger
Full performance on battery power—no slowdowns when unplugged.
Cool and quiet operation—many are completely fanless
Instant-on like your phone—open the lid and you're immediately ready to work.

Current devices you can buy:

Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 - The flagship Windows ARM experience
Dell XPS 13 2024 – 27-hour battery life
Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x - Gorgeous 3K OLED display
ASUS Vivobook S 15 - Most affordable entry point
HP, Acer, Samsung - All released competitive ARM models in 2024.

The honest tradeoffs:

Gaming is limited—most PC games don't work well on ARM
Some apps need emulation—works okay but not perfect
90% of common apps now run natively (Chrome, Office, Adobe, Zoom, Slack)
