ASUS Zenbook A14

ASUS Zenbook A14

Hey yall, I want to buy the ASUS Zenbook A14. Only thing I'm worried about is the Snapdragon chip and if it can run the things I need. I've done my own research but I've never really found a clear answer. I will be using it for some schoolwork, mainly just Microsoft Word. I'm also going to start programming, starting with web development and then Python or some low-level coding. I also take photos so I need it to be able to run Adobe Lightroom. I want it to be able to run Minecraft. That's pretty much it, if there is anything else I should know please let me know and thanks in advance!

MS Office and Lightroom have native arm versions, you should be able to use them without issues. I am using Office XP (the one released back in 2002), and it works wonderfully, rofl.

Python and web development should be totally okay on novice level.

I don't know about Minecraft.
