New 8-Core, 16-Thread AMD Ryzen 3780U Microsoft Surface Laptop Spotted in Fresh Benchmark; New Inbound Versions

 


When it was unveiled, the Surface Laptop 3 wasn't the most powerful computer in its class because it was held back due to a 4-core, 8-thread AMD Ryzen 7 3780U Processor, and that was only if you went up the specifications chart for an extra fee to bump up the hardware. Fortunately, it looks like your prayers have been answered, at least according to the latest benchmark leak, for those who wanted a premium Microsoft Surface Laptop that also didn't compromise on efficiency.

Microsoft May Be Sticking to the Same Ryzen 7 3780U Name for an Improved Ryzen 4000 Series CPU, or Newer

The unnamed Surface Laptop, which we might as well call the Surface Laptop 4 at this stage, was spotted with an 8-core, 16-thread AMD CPU running at a base clock speed of 2.00GHz, according to the Geekbench 5 score. There is currently no Ryzen 4000 series that runs at the aforementioned clock speed on AMD's website. The Ryzen 9 4800U, featuring 8 cores, 16 threads but running at a base frequency of 1.80GHz, is the only component that comes near.

This may mean that Microsoft and AMD probably worked together on this 'custom' Ryzen 7 3780U processor to provide a minor performance boost, all while sticking to the same name. This can confuse buyers, believing that both the Surface Laptop 3 and the Surface Laptop 4 are sold by Microsoft.


The Geekbench 5 leak is interesting; you'll find DDR4 RAM listed instead of LPDDR4X when you scroll below. This could mean that instead of soldering it, Microsoft will stick to upgradable memory sticks on the upcoming Surface Laptop 4, enabling users to update their RAM in the future.

Unfortunately, the teardown process on Surface Laptop 3 was not the easiest, so hopefully, Microsoft is expected to implement some modifications on Surface Laptop 4 that give users easy access to the innards. When the latest model is expected to launch or whether Microsoft is waiting to enter the market for newer Ryzen mobile processors, there's no telling. We'll keep you in the loop when they do.

Night Mode on iPhone: Everything You Need to Know

Image
The newest iPhones from Apple, iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max, are fitted with a new feature called Night mode, designed to take crisp, clear pictures even if lighting conditions, such as at night, are low.   Unfortunately, Night mode is not supported on the   iPhone SE   or   iPhone XR . It remains an exclusive feature for the ‌iPhone 11‌ line of phones. As the name suggests, Night mode allows you to take pictures at night, with lighting that has never been possible on an iPhone before, thanks to new hardware and new machine learning algorithms. Although Night Mode brightens photos, it also preserves the feeling of night time, balancing an image's light and dark elements. For a while now, Android smartphone manufacturers such as Google and Samsung have had unique modes to brighten up evening shots, and Apple is on equal footing with these other smartphone cameras with the 2019 iPhones. What is Night Mode? Night mode is an automatic setting that take...

Best 2021 Xbox controllers: Get the advantage of these third-party and official pads with these

Image
  (Pocket-lint) - The Xbox controller has a pretty remarkable lineage already - following the very unusual design embraced by the original console's chunky gamepad, the Xbox 360 introduced a new type that's stood the test of time. It has been updated only marginally over the Xbox One years, and for the Xbox Series X and S as well, it has remained very similar. That's a testament to a great deal of architecture, but it also has some limitations. Picking up a new controller might be a game-changer, because it's not quite the right shape for you, or whether you want some extra buttons and features.
