"Globally, Windows-on‑ARM systems continue to hold a very small slice of the PC market—well under 1% of total shipments.

In Q3 2024—the most recent quarter for which independent data is publicly available—Windows-on‑ARM devices represented only 0.8% of systems shipped worldwide en.wikipedia.org+7itdaily.com+7counterpointresearch.com+7. That remains the best external figure we have for "Windows on ARM market share."

Qualcomm claims a higher share—but strictly for the U.S. retail segment and only in laptops priced $800+, stating they held about 10% of that specific market during Q4 2024 tomshardware.comfinance.yahoo.com. This reflects a niche, premium sub-segment, not the overall global market."

I suspect that much of that 10% market share "in the US retail segment, $800+" is Snapdragon Surface Pros and Surface Laptops. Microsoft is trying to push ARM really hard. Will they succeed this time around? I hope they will. It may take some time though.
