This surprised me as well, but your explanation makes sense.
I'm curious as to how the new Ryzen 4000s will affect laptop market share. Because offering 8C/16T at 15W is just terrific.
- bitL 7y agoIf they stuff them only into laptops with 8GB RAM, 1080p displays and no Thunderbolt, it won't change much either (see Lenovo).
- ksec 7y agoHP, Dell, Lenovo, Apple, ASUS, just these 5 vendor alone represent 70%+ of the market. And if you start adding smaller ( Comparatively Speaking in unit shipment ) brands Such as Samsung, Microsoft, Sony, Acer, Toshiba, you are now edging close to 90% of the Market. Those top 5 vendors has long term relationship with Intel. So their AMD offering seems to be very lacking or purely as a play to have more bargaining power with Intel. Not to mention Intel's consumer marketing is far better than AMD. Unless consumer ( not us, but average consumer ) reacts favourably, I dont think it will make much of a difference in terms of volume and unit shipment. It might do well in Gaming Laptop, but it seems most gamers prefer Nvidia.
