What it is
Our main score for this model, 1–10. It combines specs, expert reviews, best-of lists and owners.
How we count it
Parts: Technical score 40%, Reviews score 25%, List score 25%, Sentiment score 10%
Marks: Each part gets a mark out of 10. For reviews, lists and owners, a typical model in this category gets about 8 and the best one gets 10.
No data yet: A part with no data shows "?". It counts as the mark of a weaker model in this category (4 in 5 models with data score higher). This way, models with reviews, lists and owners usually come out ahead.

What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.2 for now.
Share: Reviews count 25% of the overall score.

    • High-speed memory support for up to LPDDR5x-6400, offering superior bandwidth for data-intensive tasks
    • Reliable integrated Iris Xe graphics (80EUs) suitable for everyday visual tasks and light media processing
    • Excellent future-proofing with support for PCIe 4.0 and advanced features like Intel DL Boost for AI

    What customers don't like about Intel Core i5-1345UE

    • Sustained performance can be limited by the low 15W thermal envelope compared to higher-wattage P or H-series chips
    • Lacks a dedicated hardware AI accelerator found in the newer Core Ultra series
    • Can exhibit noticeable fan noise in mobile implementations when operating under prolonged heavy loads
    • Maximum turbo power can spike up to 55W, requiring careful thermal management in tight spaces
    • Slower multi-threaded performance compared to its 'URE' industrial variant which features higher clock speeds

    Verdict

    The Intel Core i5-1345UE is a 13th Gen Raptor Lake-U series embedded processor featuring a hybrid architecture with 10 cores (2 Performance, 8 Efficient) and 12 threads. It operates at a 1.4 GHz base frequency with a Max Turbo frequency of 4.6 GHz, supported by 12 MB of Intel Smart Cache and integrated Intel Iris Xe Graphics (80 execution units). Its primary strengths include an exceptionally low 15W base TDP for energy-efficient operation, support for high-speed LPDDR5-6400 memory up to 96 GB, and enterprise-grade manageability through Intel vPro. However, its low thermal design power can limit sustained multi-core performance compared to H-series mobile chips, and it lacks support for newer PCIe 5.0 and ECC memory.
