Starting from March, laptops equipped with the 13th generation Core processors for mobile (laptops) have been supplied to the market in earnest.
The mobile 13th generation Core processors consist of four product lines: the HX series, which aims for the highest performance; the H series, which emphasizes gaming performance; the P series, which seeks a balance between mobility and performance, and the U series, which aims for lightweight.
Some of these products meet the 4th generation standard of Evo, a certification program for improving consumer laptop experiences, and support the “Intel Unison” feature that can be linked with Android smartphones and iPhones. The performance of various products equipped with the i5-1340P processor for slim laptops, such as the Scene and Light, has been verified.
â– ‘Yoga Slim 7i Carbon’ with a 13.3-inch QHD display
The review product, Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Carbon (8th generation), is equipped with a 13.3-inch, 2560×1600 IPS display and an Intel 13th generation Core i5-1340P, PCI Express 4.0-based NVMe 1TB SSD, LPDDR5 16GB memory, and more.
The Core i5-1340P processor operates with a total of 12 cores and 16 threads, including 4 P (performance) cores and 8 E (efficient) cores. The core configuration is the same as that of the previous generation’s i5-1240P, but the maximum operating clock has been improved to 4.6GHz for P cores and 3.4GHz for E cores.
In pursuit of portability, only two Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) ports are built-in, and the 3.5mm headphone jack is missing from the main body. However, an adapter that includes USB-A (USB 3.2 Gen.2), HDMI, 15-pin D-sub, and a 3.5mm jack is provided to complement the expansion ports.
â– Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop/Lightroom, etc. perform well
UL Procyon measures processing time and speed for large files, photos, and videos based on actual programs, such as Microsoft Office and Adobe Lightroom Classic/Photoshop, Premiere Pro, etc. The shorter the processing time, the higher the score.
The test results showed that Office and Lightroom Classic/Photoshop were performed without any problems. However, the video editing test, which compresses 4K videos into H.265, is difficult to process properly due to the performance limits of the built-in Iris Xe graphics chipset. A laptop with a separate graphics chipset is more suitable for video editing.
Bobco Crossmark measures how quickly the same task can be processed based on the performance of a desktop PC equipped with the Intel Core i5-8500T processor.
The benchmark is 1,000 points, and a score of 2,000 points is twice the standard…
