The laptop is equipped with a 1st generation Snapdragon X Elite processor and 32 GB RAM, which basically offers solid performance for image editing. The 32 GB RAM and the fast 1 TB PCIe 4.0 SSD are advantageous for editing large Photoshop files. The 15.6-inch 3K OLED display with high resolution (2880 x 1620 pixels) also supports precise colour reproduction, which is important for image editing.

However, the built-in Snapdragon X Elite X1E-78-100 is the weakest version of the processor without Turbo Boost, with a maximum of 3.4 GHz on all 12 cores. The graphics performance is somewhat weaker compared to AMD- or Intel-based systems, which can be noticeable with very graphics-intensive tasks in Photoshop. For professional, very large and complex image files, the performance is sufficient, but not at the level of high-end Intel or AMD notebooks. However, it is well suited for everyday use and demanding image editing.

To summarise: The laptop is ideal for image editing with Photoshop on large files if you are looking for a good balance of performance, mobility and display quality. For extremely professional or very graphics-intensive workflows, more powerful x86 models might be better.
