Depends on your usage - for most, you cannot tell the difference of the CPU performance as long as the CPU is from last 3 years.

The Intel one is a Meteo lake, good graphics and good power efficiency. Unless you need to do CPU intensive work, either is fine.

I base my argument of real world use and real world use of people I know. This includes 2 kids currently in college (again, non-enginerring, non computer science), CEO of small companies, small shop owners, restaurant owners, bunch of health professionals, etc. All of them would tell you for their use case, they would take battery life over heavy processing power any day and they would all say the processing power of this Intel is more than enough for them.

Step out of your bubble for once and fathom a world that different people have different needs.

This has to be the dumbest conversation to have. Are you going to go on every laptop thread that has a processor no better than this and cr@p on it? That's like 80% of the threads on SD.

I am running 11th gen intel processor i5-1135g7 with 16gb ram on an x1 carbon and I do web browsing 7-10 tabs, youtube, spotify, spreadsheet, word, no issues whatsoever. Of course, you want to move the needle of my statement by now saying heavy spreadsheet work. No, I don't do heavy spreadsheet work. And again, I never mentioned any gaming. The intel core ultra 5 is 2 generations better than my 11th gen processor. I doubt it will be any worse if not better.
And I will take that bet 100%. 3 tab browsing, outlook and spotify. A layman using that will not notice the difference. I am not talking about you geeks with the stopwatch and benchmark running 24/7 in the background. If a laptop cannot handle that workload with an MSRP of over $500, 95% of them would be returned. I have celeron powered laptops that can handle that (probably the more important thing is at least 16gb ram).
Again, we are talking about the target audience of this laptop. High school students, non-engineering non-computer science college students, moms and dads, business travelers that needs to answer emails and occasionally look at a spreadsheet or word document.

You better hope nothing happens to your right nut.

From bestbuy Q&A
> RAM or memory is not upgradable, as it is soldered to the systemboard. With storage, yes, but just know that it features a single storage slot (M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 x4) that is already used by the 512GB M.2 SSD that it ships with. You would have to swap the drives to increase storage capacity.

I really can not recommend the Ultra 5 125U. I ended up purchasing a certified refurbished Lenovo Ideapad 5 14" for $450 on FLeabay... it has the 8845HS which I believe is a MUCH better CPU/GPU combo. Search "certified refurbished ideapad 5 8845hs"While the Yoga is technically a better build and you can attach more monitors... WHO CARES... I am all about specs. And I think they have the identical screen. So the 8845HS IMHO is faster CPU/GPU... while this intel CPU does use less power...
What's wrong with Ultra 5 125U?

There is only ONE 14" laptop that you can upgrade the RAM... it is made by MSI AND it sports two year old intel CPUs.

The END of an era... and the right to repair has just gotten smaller. THIS IS BULLSHIT.

This is untrue. I got a 14" asus a few months back and was able to upgrade the RAM along with tons of other people in the thread.

They use the soldered ram for the slimmer profile, less power consumption, and higher memory speeds. The real argument here is the price jump for the memory capacity and then locking it behind more expensive hardware.

Bought this for my son for Christmas. He went from a MacBook to this laptop and he loves it. 2k screen is excellent. I wish the Nits could be a little brighter but does okay in bright light. Great price for $499. Personally paid $599 during a BB Black Friday sale.

No bro. This is straight cope. The 125U is a piece of garbage compared to the 8840/5 hs. You will definitely notice. Unless you use your laptop to use paint and notepad and maybe occasionally dare to open a browser tab, you will notice.
