My Windows lapop just died. I've had it for centuries so not suprised. I'm looking to get a new laptop this week and as I have a samsung phone and tablet, was wonderng whether to get the latest Samsung Book Laptop running Windows 11.

I've never had a book/notebook type laptop so wondering if I would be able to install Affinity and run it. I own v2 and use the Design, Photo and Publisher software pretty much everyday.

Not sure if a notebook is right for me so might just stick with a standard laptop.

Any advice welcome.

Thanks

Yes, your V2 apps should run on that machine. If you download from the Affinity Store make sure you choose the ARM64 versions of the installers, rather than the X64 versions, since it's running a Snapdragon Elite processor.

Thanks Walt - I went round in several circles trying to decide what to get and in the end bought a really great refurbished laptop that works perfectly. Was very tempted by the book laptop but it wasn't to be this time around.
