Is this true that Snapdragon X2 Elite chip 38% faster than apple silicon M3 pro and beats apple M5?
No idea. However, I would advise against Snapdragon chip laptops as they almost always use soldered memory while being really expensive, plus, they tend to have terrible Linux support. Even Intel 13th gen or older Ryzen chips are fine (I’m currently using a laptop running the Intel i7 1360P), they might just run a bit hotter. Obviously, Panther Lake chips are super efficient and have awesome battery, but they are also quite expensive. At least with Panther Lake though, you have options that use LPCAMM memory (like the Framework 13 Pro or the newer Thinkpads), and Linux is well-supported
Probably. Is it 38, 35, or 40% faster? That may be debatable.
But, yah. It’s absolutely faster than Apple silicon in general.Questionable. Depends on use case.

You can compare here for example. I used Geekbench Browser to compare (IMHO) real world usage
Also, Mac vs Windows is not an insignificant difference, again depending on use case.
