For newcomers, a quick note that contrary to what you can read in the review above, the AeroBook Plus now has a matte 4K display and the Wi-Fi card is better too, an Intel Dual-Band Wireless-AC 7265 with a speed of 866 Mbps - at least in mine I bought a few days ago. Fingers crossed ;)

huh?
8th gen and 10th gen scores way higher than that.

you think so or its a fact? i gave you a link with the numbers, why are they not good enough for you? here are 2 cores/4 threads again:
best of 10th gen comet lake, i3-10110U .....403 points
best of 8th gen i3-8145u.....351,5
best of 7th gen i7-7600u....344(actually 7660u is faster, but only 1 result in the database)
or..you know what, perf rating is even better

QuotePerformance Rating - CB R15 + R20 + 7-Zip + X265 + Blender + 3DM11 CPU

so, we can go here https://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Processors-Benchmark-List.2436.0.html?
restrict by ..
ok, nevermind, this table and filters is a mess, unusable.(in a contrary to  userbenchmark database), so i'll tell you, all 6th-10th are in a pretty narrow corridor.

Now compare this to 10th gen U series which is basically the same CPU, but tweaked. There is absolutely no comparison, performance is way better and power consumption is again, much better with 10th gen, even if it is basically the same process, same CPU, same everything.

fyi, 2 cores/4 threads, 15w tdp, cinebench r15 multi
https://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Processors-Benchmark-List.2436.0.html?
intel 6th gen~350pts
intel 7th gen~350pts
intel 8th gen~400pts
intel 9th gen~no 15w sku
intel 10th gen~400 pts
very impressive.

So the single core cpu and gpu power are better than comet lake?
