ARM just makes sense for portable devices for obvious reasons, x86 isn't dying though. For the average person who needs a laptop to do some professional-managerial work ARM is perfect.

What are those reasons that you think are so obvious? I have no idea what you could be referring to 😅

Arm tends to be a lot more power efficient, so you can get better battery life on portable devices.

And lower power consumption and heat production on all devices, so I don't get the “just”

Not only that but also reducing the number of chips that need to be powered helps with efficiency.
