Performance: CPU, GPU, Gaming Tests
CPU options
This device can be found with the Intel Core i5-1255U, Core i7-1260P, or Core i7-1265U. Keep in mind that some of the CPU options are region-dependent.
Results are from the Cinebench R23 CPU test (the higher the score, the better)
Results are from our Photoshop benchmark test (the lower the score, the better)

Results are from the Unigine Superposition benchmark (higher the score, the better)
