So if Comet Lake-U is just a repackaged Whiskey Lake-U with even slight improvements being conditional, then which would you suggest for someone looking to replace a 5-year old laptop?

If I understood this correctly, Comet Lake draws more power yet is no more efficient than Whiskey Lake. Even putting the 6-core chip aside, wouldn't Whiskey Lake still be the better choice for battery life, especially in an ultrabook? Not to mention it'll be cheaper and thus the better value?

Thank you for the article and for explaining the "differences". Essentially, Comet Lake is a rebadged Whiskey Lake except with slightly faster clock speeds. Very disappointing from Intel. You weren't scathing enough in this article, but chalk that up to professionalism.

Comet Lake-U is the successor to the current Whiskey Lake-U CPUs from Intel. However, the new models are still manufactured in the familiar 14nm process. We checked the performance of the new Core i7 with a pre-production unit, but the results are rather sobering.
