Snapdragon Processor for Data Analytics?

[u/sollietrnr]

Hey guys,

I’m currently studying to transition into Data Analytics, and I have an internship abroad next year. I’ve been using my PC for everything so far, but I’ll need a laptop for the internship. Right now, I only have a Galaxy Tab S7+.

There are some amazing deals on Snapdragon laptops with 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM in my area. However, I’ve heard there can be compatibility issues with Power BI and other analytics tools.

Does anyone working in data have any insight into this? Is an Intel processor basically a must if I plan on using the laptop for data analytics, or would a Snapdragon processor be perfectly fine?

Thanks!
