AMD Ryzen 7 6800U Review – with ASUS ZenBook S 13 OLED | KitGuru

AMD’s new Ryzen 6000 Mobile processors are focussed heavily on strong computational and graphics performance at low power levels. That combination makes the U-series chips right at home inside 15-28W-class, sub-15mm, 1kg ultraportable style laptop chassis; and that’s exactly what we have at hand to examine the performance of AMD’s new 8-core Zen3+ processor – the ASUS ZenBook S 13 OLED. We have already examined Zen 3+ Mobile in its 35W-class Ryzen 9 6900HS form with the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 and that was a glowing success with the chip proving to be absolutely superb. So, let’s see if that outstanding performance and performance-per-Watt translates well for the Ryzen 7 6800U in a market where such metrics are absolutely critical.
