I noticed that a lot of AMD laptops test display a fake Cinebench R15 single thread score,
and this one does not make exception, the 220 pts score is fake since it should score about
300 pts, this never happened with Intel devices, since the score is 37% below what it should
be this has an influence in the perf rating of the laptop.

How you mean that it 'should' be about 300? I am not doubting your statement, I just don't know what you mean. Is your statement based on general ai 7 450 benchmarks? If yes, might limited form factor (thin 14 incher) and its termals limit the performance, I guess.

Yesssss! Finally somebody is mentioning high standby consumption. And big plus for info about soldered RAM in minus section.

That s not a thermal limitation, all other cinebench versions single thread scores are within specs,
it s a mistake done by reviewer and this happened often with AMD devices, the Cinebench R15 ST score
is abnormaly low, yet all other Cinebench ST scores, like R23 and 2024, are accurate in all those faulty reviews,a 220 pts score amount to about 3.7GHz in the single thread test.
