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.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Intel Core i7-11375H

  • High single-core clock speeds (up to 5.0 GHz) provide strong performance in lightly threaded tasks.
  • Efficient Tiger Lake H35 architecture allows for capable gaming in thin and light laptop form factors.
  • Native support for modern standards including PCIe 4.0, Thunderbolt 4, and Wi-Fi 6.
  • Integrated Iris Xe graphics (96 EUs) offer respectable performance for non-gaming or light creative workloads.
  • Lower power consumption (35W TDP) compared to traditional high-performance H-series chips, aiding portability.

What customers don't like about Intel Core i7-11375H

  • Limited to 4 cores and 8 threads, which can bottleneck high-end GPUs like the RTX 3070 in modern AAA games.
  • Underwhelming multi-threaded performance compared to contemporary 6-core and 8-core alternatives like the i7-11800H.
  • Frequent reports of high operating temperatures (80-95°C) and thermal throttling under sustained heavy loads.
  • Often considered poor value when paired with high-performance graphics cards due to CPU-limited performance.
  • Strictly outclassed by newer 12th and 13th Gen processors which offer significant improvements in core count and efficiency.

Verdict

The Intel Core i7-11375H is a high-end quad-core processor from the 11th Gen Tiger Lake-H35 series, specifically designed for ultra-portable gaming laptops and mobile workstations. Built on a 10nm SuperFin process, it features 4 Willow Cove cores and 8 threads with a base clock frequency of 3.30 GHz (at 35W TDP) and a significant Max Turbo Boost 3.0 frequency of up to 5.00 GHz. Main characteristics include 12 MB of Intel Smart Cache, support for PCIe 4.0, and integrated Intel Iris Xe Graphics with 96 execution units. Its primary advantages are exceptional single-threaded performance for its class, efficient power consumption with a configurable TDP down to 28W, and advanced feature support like Wi-Fi 6 and Thunderbolt 4. However, its main drawbacks are the limited quad-core configuration, which can bottleneck modern multi-threaded workloads compared to 6- or 8-core competitors, and its status as a locked processor that lacks manual overclocking capabilities.
