More inconsistent results, but still good

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    It’s great that an AMD Framework exists, both for folks who already own an Intel version but want to upgrade and for those who are shopping for the first time and will benefit from more choice.

    On Tomb Raider, the 1360P performed closer to the 12th Gen chip in the Dell XPS 13 I reviewed than it did to the Ryzen 7; AMD’s frame rates on that title were close to 50 percent higher.

    (I was continuously using the device for work at medium brightness with Battery Saver on, multitasking in 15 to 20 Chrome tabs and other apps with the occasional Zoom call or Spotify streaming running overtop.)

    Ironically, this result is very good news for Intel because AMD devices across the board have been lasting me much longer this year.

    Not everyone has the luxury of sitting around and waiting for AMD systems to ship at an undetermined time (as the past few years have certainly taught us).

    The AMD system is fantastic, too, and differences in multithreaded performance and GPU-intensive tasks aren’t always a high priority for folks shopping in the 13-inch space.
