3D/PC Mark and Unigine Heaven/Superposition
Intel brought the 11th generation of processors relatively quickly, which naturally means that most laptop manufacturers have updated their models. These include Asus, which in addition to the new Flip S also introduced a revamped ZenBook 13 and 14. We reviewed the last generation’s 14, now we will test the smaller 13-inch model. Expectations are high, as I considered the ZenBook 14 to be one of the best ultrabooks of the year.
3D/PC Mark and Unigine Heaven/Superposition
A combined PCMark test continues the trend we saw in rendering. The new ZenBook 13 is faster than the 10th generation predecessors including the Flip S, but the Swift with Ryzen is still the leader.
The coin flips in 3DMark Firestrike, Time Spy and Sky Diver, where the ZenBook 13 with the new Intel Xe graphics beats not only the Flip S, but also the Swift and of course, older models. Particularly interesting is the lead over the Flip S, which has the same processor. It is at the level of 30%, which is again a relatively large number considering the same processor.
New tests have been added to 3DMark, which we will also use in the future. However, we do not yet have enough data for analysis, so commenting on the results is irrelevant.
The Unigine Heaven gaming test shows the 13’s victory in the test of integrated graphics with a relatively large lead. The Flip S lags behind by 23% and the ZenBook 14 by even more than a half.
