I’m searching for a Notebook and I came across one that had a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c which grabbed my attention… My main concern was that the processor specs says:
- Instruction Set: ARMv8-A64 (64 bit)
- Architecture: Kryo 468
Main questions:
- Does Linux already supports this processor?
- What I should look at? Instruction Set (A64) or Architecture (Kyro)?
If you have time to spend… How this CPU compares with an i3 6157U?
that sounds like some cheap Chromebook and Chromebooks are not really fun to replace the ChromeOS with GNU/Linux and most people resent to Crostini or Crouton instead which works on top of an existing ChromeOS though
the most important thing here is however the model name of the Chromebook which will determine how easy this process will be and if there actually issues on hardware (like Microphone, Speakers or Trackpad not working correctly on GNU/Linux)
