ASUS is pairing Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme with a 1.2 kg 16-inch Zenbook A16, promising big-screen portability, an 80 TOPS NPU, OLED at 120 Hz, and long battery life.

Alongside the Snapdragon X Elite and Snapdragon X Elite Extreme (cue the guitar riff), Qualcomm is coming to CES 2026 with an X2 Plus chip.
