Funny as the AnandTech article wrote "Despite today being the official launch of the Core Ultra series and Meteor Lake platform, you won’t find any reviews for the hardware. And we’re not sure you’ll be able to find much hardware, either" and this YouTube channel reviews two such devices in their video. Benchmark data in the video:

Cinebench R23: 13218

Cinebench 2024: 701

Geekbench 6.2: 12319

Fire Strike GPU: 9317

Time Spy: 3283

Geekbench 6.2 Compute: 30101

Battery life (summary): In their various tests (not many apparent details on exactly how it was done) very comparable with the M2 air/7840U devices.

Gaming FPS (1080P Medium, iGPU): Generally better than the 780M

Overwatch 2: 82 FPS

Apex Legends: 73 FPS

Diablo 4: 50 FPS

Starfield: 31 FPS

Counter-Strike 2: 67 FPS

Valorant: 137 FPS

I wish there are Single Core Benchmarks.

Thanks. Still need 50% speedup to reach the same A17 performance on clock per clock basis. ( Not a fair comparison since they optimise for different thing but still interesting to see )
I would trust Cinebench more than Geekbench. It's funny how Cinebench is biased against Apple, while most other benchmarks are not. And that is for both mobile and laptop CPUs.
>It's funny how Cinebench is biased against Apple,

I dont see that. Cinebench still shows Apple is just about the same ahead of its competition.
