The Asus VivoBook Flip 14 with Ryzen 7 4700U outmuscles the Core i7-1065G7 on the Dell XPS 13

I recently purchased the new Asus VivoBook Flip 14 TM420 with AMD Ryzen 7 4700U from Amazon and posted a first impressions article already. Even though I haven’t completed my review for the laptop, the performance tests with this thin and light laptop have totally blown me away, as you see by the title, this 2-in-1 laptop that costs $699 in the US and should cost ₹ 69,990 in India beats the Dell XPS 13 that costs about $1800 in the US and ₹ 2,10,998 in India.

At first, when I received the laptop, the scores that I got weren’t that much convincing and I knew it because the APU was max clocking at 2.87GHz. It was really a BIOS issue and have updated it, the laptop was boosting at a whopping 4.18 GHz clock speed, reaching its full potential of 4.1GHz. So, initially, the benchmarks were not good, however, after the update, this laptop was like a beast.

All of the 8 Zen 2 cores were ramping up while running Geekbench or Cinebench but I like how the thermals of the new Asus VivoBook Flip 14 TM420 has been managed. So, in the Geekbench 5, the Ryzen 7 4700U with 8GB RAM (512MB is reserved for the Vega iGPU) achieved a score of 1137 points in the single-core test while managing a humongous 5136 points in multi-core tests.

On the other hand, managing an average score from Geekbench 5 database, the Dell XPS 13 with its mighty Core i7-1065G7 and 16GB of RAM managed to score 1265 points in the single-core test while managing a humongous 4812 points in multi-core tests. So, even though coming in at so cheap, the Asus VivoBook Flip 14 with Ryzen 7 4700U did manage to compete against the costlier Dell XPS 13 with better cooling, closing in on the single-core tests and edging past the Intel CPU in the multi-core tests.

Coming to Cinebench R20, the Ryzen APU managed to score 351 points in a single-core score while gathering a hefty 2254 points in multi-core tests. On the other hand, the Intel Core i7-1065G7 on the Dell XPS 13 just manages 1770 points in multi-core tests while still dominating AMD on the single-core with 428 points as per the review of HotHardware.

I wonder if this laptop is upgraded with more RAM how much more performance you achieve with this, that too in a slim form factor. Overall, as a budget ultrabook, the Asus VivoBook Flip 14 TM420 with Ryzen 7 4700U is the best value that you can ask for especially being a 2-in-1 light and portable laptop. It seems that Dell should now look for AMD as Ryzen seems a value king and can reach masses.
