Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Core i3-8145U is an eighth-generation processor. It is based on the Whiskey Lake U architecture and manufactured using the 14nm process. This chip has been specifically optimized for use in mobile devices. We see how it still provides a solid foundation for everyday computing tasks. It continues to perform well in many typical usage scenarios.

The integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 enables smooth media playback. It supports the most common applications in everyday life completely without problems. This graphics unit is absolutely sufficient for office work, light video streaming, or simple surfing. A major advantage of this processor is its remarkably low power consumption.

The Intel Core i3-8145U thus contributes significantly to longer battery life. This makes it an excellent choice for notebooks that are often used on the go. A 4 MB L3 cache supports fast data processing. This processor is not intended for demanding gaming applications. Nevertheless, it always performs its core tasks very reliably.

It remains a constant and reliable companion for many users.
  • Energy-efficient operation
  • Integrated graphics for everyday tasks
  • Solid performance for mobile use
  • 4 MB L3 cache
