The X factor will be the external factors outside of Qualcomm's control. Sure they have the Nuvia team likely designing a new architecture but the 2 other major pillars are:<p>1. Microsoft's work to "ARM-tize" Windows 11. Will they make a serious effort and succeed, or get scuttled like the Windows RT & 10X efforts previously?<p>2. TSMC's latest and greatestfab process, whether it be 3nm or beyond. Can Qualcomm secure capacity on it? If not, then it'll be very tough to stay competitive with Apple.
