Most Intel and AMD laptops are built on Intel processors, but there are also rare models on Qualcomm SoCs.

So, for example, in the US, Walmart stores offer the Samsung Galaxy Book Go 14 at a discount of $120: instead of $320, it can be purchased for $200.

It may not be the most luxurious laptop with Windows 11, but for its price, the characteristics are quite good. The hardware platform is based on the 8-core and 8-nanometer Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c Gen 2 SoC, which was released at the end of April 2021. The amount of LPDDR4 RAM is 4 GB, the amount of UFS 2.1 flash memory is 64 GB.

The configuration also includes a 14-inch Full HD screen, stereo speakers with a total power of 3 W, a webcam that allows you to broadcast video 720p, two USB-C ports, one USB-A 2.0, a standard headphone jack and a microSD card slot.
