[Insights] As COMPUTEX Nears, Has x86 Already Won the PC Battle Against Arm?

What happened

Windows on Arm (WoA) market share has stagnated at 4-6% over the past two years, failing to meet Qualcomm's 50% projection. WoA faces challenges in the mainstream $599 segment and struggles with gaming/creation workloads, while x86 (Intel Lunar Lake, AMD Strix Point) maintains efficiency and performance advantages. Bearish for Arm PC adoption; x86 ecosystem retains dominance in the PC market.
