Recently, with the release of Intel's new generation of Core processors, major PC manufacturers have also launched their own new products, coupled with the New Year's Festival discounts on e-commerce platforms, which has also set off a small wave of notebook replacement recently. Considering that the Core Ultra processor is the generation with the biggest changes and upgrades from Intel over the years, including the ARC GPU with the replacement of the core graphics with Xe-LPG, the performance is increased by two times; Using Intel 4 process technology, as well as the use of separate modules and 3D packaging, it has extremely high performance, in addition to an exclusive NPU module, which can accelerate the performance of notebook AI, coupled with the people's **, in a word, it is summarized as: this year's thin and light notebook "buy new not buy old".
At present, there are a large number of Core Ultra thin and light laptops on the market, and the configurations** are not the same, in order to give you a better purchase and reference, today I will recommend three Core Ultra thin and light laptops that I personally think are worth starting.
The ASUS Zenbook 14 is equipped with a Core Ultra9 processor, with 16 cores and 22 threads, and a turbo frequency ratio of 5At 1GHz, the GPU performance is about 2 times higher than the previous generation, and it is also the first time to integrate the first intelligent acceleration engine NPU, which is designed to accelerate AI applications, and the memory specification is standard with 32GB LPDDR5X 7467MHz high-frequency memory +1T flash memory, which makes AI run more smoothly.
The screen aspect is equipped with a piece of 28K 120Hz OLED ASUS good screen, covering 100% P3 wide color gamut, 1 billion colors, 600 nits peak brightness, supporting four professional color gamut switching, and also passed TÜV Rheinland hardware-level low blue light flicker-free certification, SGS Eye Care eye care certification, and supports DC dimming; In terms of battery life, it is equipped with a 75wh large-capacity battery, and the weight thickness is controlled at 119kg、13.The excellent level of 9mm, the comprehensive strength is very comprehensive.
Dell Inspiron 14 Plus is equipped with a Core Ultra5 125H processor, which also introduces an NPC chip for AI acceleration, which can realize CPU+GPU+NPU to release local AI superpowers, so that AI can be integrated into daily office and creation, and the storage is standard with 16G+1T specifications; Screen-wise, the Dell Inspiron 14 Plus comes with a 28K high resolution, 90Hz high refresh rate screen, 16:10** ratio, covering 100% SRGB wide color gamut, supporting hardware-level anti-blue light and DC dimming, in addition to Thunderbolt 4, USB32. HDMI and other interfaces are fully configured, and in terms of battery life, it has a 64wh large-capacity battery, and the comprehensive configuration is still very good.
MSI Medallion 13 is equipped with a Core Ultra7 155H processor, Intel 4 process, and the graphics card uses ARC core graphics card, with 32G+1T large storage and MSI Frost cooling system, whether it is performance release or AI acceleration, it has a very good performance, and can easily cope with daily multitasking and professional applications. In terms of screen, the MSI Medallion 13 comes with a 133 inches, 2The 8K resolution OLED screen has a 16:10 aspect ratio and 100% DCI-P3 wide color gamut, which can provide users with excellent visual enjoyment.
In other configurations, the MSI Medallion 13 also has Thunderbolt 4 and USB 32 gen 2 type-a、hdmi 2.1 and other interfaces, as well as a 75Wh battery that can provide long-lasting battery life, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 54,1080p infrared webcam, backlit keyboard and other practical configurations are also readily available, which is still very good as a business office notebook.
The above three AI ultra-thin and light laptops equipped with Core Ultra processors are quite comprehensive and excellent in their respective configurations, which can fully meet the needs of daily office, creation, entertainment, etc., but considering the **, performance, screen and other configuration factors, I personally think that ASUS Zenbook 14 2024 is the most cost-effective one.
For example, on the processor, ASUS Zenbook 14 2024 is currently one of the few thin and light laptops on the market that is equipped with Core Ultra9 for the first time, from the perspective of the comprehensive performance of the processor alone, Core Ultra9 Compared with the other two Core Ultra7 and Core Ultra5, whether it is single-core, multi-core or core graphics performance is more advantageous, with the help of AI tools for programming, translation, or clippingAI cutouts, and running AI painting generation tools Stable Diffusion, ASUS Zenbook 14 2024 can provide better AI computing power.
Also in terms of screen, the ASUS Zenbook 14 2024 28K+120Hz OLEDAsus good screen is also the highest screen quality among the three,Cover100%P3Wide color gamut,Support four professional color gamut switching,600nitPeak brightness,100000000000Ultra-high contrast,Whether it's daily office、Professional creation,Or chasing dramas、Games,It can be easily satisfied,Compared with Dell Inspiron14 Plus and MSI Medal13,Zenbook 14The screen can be said to be at the leading level in terms of color、brightness、Contrast、Eye protection and other parameters。
Others such as 32GB LPDDR5X 7467MHz high-frequency memory +1T flash memory, complete interface configuration, 75Wh large-capacity battery, etc., ASUS Zenbook 14 2024 are all configured in place, and the price is only 7699, compared to the 10299 MSI Medallion 13, it can be said that it is high and low, compared to the 6499 Dell Inspiron 14 Plus, the difference in price of 1200 is in exchange for the upgrade of the processor, storage, screen, and battery life. The comprehensive cost performance is very high, of course, this is just for a purchase reference, Zenbook 14 2024's ultra7 version is also close to the people, you can choose according to your own needs.
