Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Core i5-6287U was once a very popular choice for mobile devices. As a 6th generation processor, it was based on the Skylake U architecture. It offered a good mix of energy efficiency and solid performance. Manufactured in the 14-nanometer process, this chip supported the construction of slim and energy-saving laptops.

That was very popular at the time. A notable strength of the processor is the integrated Intel Iris Graphics 550. This graphics solution noticeably outperformed many other integrated GPUs of that time. Users could use it smoothly for everyday applications. Moderate visual tasks or occasional gaming were also possible with it.

The 4 MB Level 3 cache also contributed to this. It helped to quickly provide frequently needed data. This improved the overall responsiveness of the system. Even today, we see that this processor has proven itself. It is suitable for basic office work, surfing the web and playing media content. It provided a reliable basis for devices that valued mobility and energy efficiency.
