Chuwi CoreBook X 2023: New model released
with Intel Core i3-1215U, LPDDR5 RAM and high resolution 3:2 display for under
US$400
Chuwi has started selling a new version of
the CoreBook X, which it last refreshed in early 2022. To recap, the CoreBook X
2022 relied on the Core i3-10110U, which Chuwi has now replaced with the Core i3-1215U.
According to our database, the Core i3-1215U should deliver 2.1x the
performance of the outgoing Core i3-10110U while maintaining a 15 W TDP.
For reference, the Core i3-1215U has 2 P
cores, 4 E cores and 8 threads.
Additionally, the Alder Lake-U series
processor can boost its P cores to 4.4 GHz when needed and has a UHD Graphics
iGPU with 64 Execution Units. The Core i3-1215U is also one of Intel's many 10
nm processors. In other words, it should run more efficiently than the 14
nm-based Core i3-10110U. Moreover, the processor switch allows Chuwi to equip
the new CoreBook X with faster LPDDR5 RAM, compared to the LPDDR4-2666 RAM
offered in the CoreBook X 2022.
The CoreBook X remains unchanged in other
areas though, with the 2023 model retaining a 14-inch IPS display that outputs
at 2,160 x 1,440 pixels with a 3:2 aspect ratio. Moreover, the laptop has a
46.2Wh battery that is rated for 8 hours of usage and several ports, as shown
below. At the time of writing, Chuwi charges US$399 for the latest CoreBook X
with 8 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD. Alternatively, the laptop is available with
the same storage but 16 GB of RAM for US$499.
