Qualcomm Adreno X1-45 Review

The Adreno X1-45 is the integrated GPU inside Qualcomm's more affordable Snapdragon X Plus chips, giving buyers of cheaper Windows-on-ARM laptops a lower-tier alternative to the flagship Adreno X1-85 already on this site.

Delivering 1.7 TFLOPS of peak performance against the X1-85's 4.6 TFLOPS, the X1-45 trades raw graphics throughput for a lower price point, targeting mainstream Windows-on-ARM laptops rather than premium configurations.

A Scaled-Down Sibling

Delivering 1.7 TFLOPS of peak performance against the X1-85's 4.6 TFLOPS, the X1-45 trades raw graphics throughput for a lower price point, targeting mainstream Windows-on-ARM laptops rather than premium configurations.

Same Architecture, Lower Tier

Built on the same underlying Adreno X1 architecture as the flagship X1-85, the X1-45 shares software and driver behavior with its pricier sibling, meaning app and game compatibility gaps affect both chips similarly.

Comparison to Alternatives

Against the Adreno X1-85 already on this site, the X1-45 offers meaningfully less raw graphics performance in exchange for a lower laptop price point. Against Intel's integrated graphics in similarly-priced Windows laptops, the X1-45 offers strong battery life and native ARM app performance but faces the same emulation gap as its flagship sibling on the broader x86 game library.
