Episode 61: Qualcomm vs. Apple Stock -- 2 New Chips Attack the Big Laptop Market

Qualcomm is a mobile chipmaker and designer that has been trying to break into the laptop market for years. Apple has been a major player in laptops and made significant headway with the introduction of the M-series chip in 2020. Just recently, Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon X Elite laptop chips. The Snapdragon X Elite is based on Arm architecture and will give x86 chip makers Intel and AMD, and maybe even Apple (?) a run for their money. It remains to be seen whether Qualcomm will be successful in its attempt to enter the laptop market. However, the Snapdragon X Elite platform is a significant improvement over Qualcomm's previous efforts, and it could give Qualcomm a competitive edge. Meanwhile, Apple just front-ran Qualcomm with the quick announcement and availability of MacBooks powered by the M3 chips. The competition between these two companies could lead to more innovation in the laptop market, as both try to develop the best possible products as far as power-to-performance goes. Which stock is a better buy in this important area of the semiconductor race? Chip Stock Investor breaks it down in this episode, along with a brief history of the x86 vs. Arm laptop chip battle in recent decades.
