There just aren’t other chips with M1 levels of performance and efficiency. The Surface Pro X, however, is an ARM option, albeit with a now fairly outdated chip.
I have high hopes for the laptop chip Qualcomm plans to build with the former Nuvia team though.
I am looking for a new laptop, but seems like only way to get something that feels like an upgrade is going to go with Apple's M1. I hate this company, but I might hold my nose and get one if someone gets Linux working reasonably well. I'll wait few months and see...
