More AMD Ryzen 5 2500U benchmarks spotted
 

Notebookcheck pits it against Core i5-8250U

Although there were a handful of Ryzen Mobile notebooks announced, the HP Envy x350 15 was one of the first to ship and while we saw a couple of early benchmarks, the latest preview from Notebookcheck.net pits it against Intel's Kaby Lake Refresh Core i5-8250U CPU.

While this is just a preview and it does not include a full set of benchmarks that we usually see from Notebookcheck.net, it does provide some new details and shows the Ryzen 5 2500U against some similar APUs and CPUs with dedicated GPUs, like the Intel Core i7-7500U with Geforce 940MX and the Core i5-8250U with Geforce MX150.

In Cinebench R15, Cinebench R11.5, and the Cinebench R10, the HP Envy x360 15 with Ryzen 5 2500U APU does not score that well in single-core benchmarks, which does not come as a big surprise. In multi-core benchmarks, it certainly outperforms some dual-core Kaby Lake CPUs and even gives both the Core i5-8250U and the Core i7-8550U a run for their money.
