In addition to Honor, nine other manufacturers are confirmed to offer laptops with the Snapdragon X Elite chip. These manufacturers are Lenovo, Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, Microsoft, Samsung, Xiaomi and Honor. Honor was the first to announce it at the Snapdragon Summit event earlier this morning.
One interesting thing in the question and answer session with Qualcomm today is that they confirmed that although only one version of the Snapdragon X Elite is launched, manufacturers are free to customize the chip because the power used can be as low as 23W on devices without a cooling fan or reach 80W on devices that want to include active cooling system for gaming performance.
Qualcomm also did not rule out that the Snapdragon X Elite could be used on desktop computers if manufacturers wanted to offer it but insisted that it was made specifically for thin laptops and had a longer battery life.
