3500U with TDP 11-15W get ~626-640 points in CBR15 and is stable and quite quiet in the same Lenovo S340. For this "miracle" from Intel 2023, I see only a shameful ~670 points, which is close to 3500U and almost equal to 3700U.
There is no trace of +30% with sustained performance. This is your fantasy. The gain is only in momentum (+24%), i.e. open page, as soon as it comes to increased load, the i3 1215U immediately turns into a rotten pumpkin with the performance of 4 years ago. And it has exactly the same number of threads as the 3500U/3700U of 2019 - 8. So where are all these advantages in both the technical process and core optimization over the course of 5 years? This is a shame for Intel, given the success of AMD even in 2019, when they continued to sell outdated Zen+ cores instead of Zen2 for another year.
