Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Core Ultra 7 355 is based on the new and efficient architecture called Panther Lake. In manufacturing, Intel consistently relies on the advanced 2 nm process. We found that this fine hardware structure enables very stable energy efficiency. Specifically, the integrated Intel Xe3 4 Core Graphics 32 EUs (Panther Lake) delivers a clear image.

With a memory bandwidth of 120 GB/s, the processor provides a solid foundation for smooth performance. The Intel Core Ultra 7 355 uses a combined cache of 22 megabytes of fast memory. We particularly appreciate the successful balance between power consumption and performance in this model. The new chip generation clearly shows its strengths in handling everyday tasks.

A look at the technical specifications also reveals a modern interface for fast RAM. Despite its compact design, thermal levels during operation usually remain within a comfortable range. Thus, the Intel Core Ultra 7 355 represents a truly sensible choice for mobile devices. We were amazed at how smoothly processes run with several programs open simultaneously.

The internal graphics unit with its 32 execution units effortlessly supports many common video formats. High efficiency ensures that the battery life of many devices is noticeably longer. The processor demonstrates that modern technology does not always require extremely high clock rates for good results.

  • Production in a modern 2 nm process
  • Integrated Intel Xe3 4 Core Graphics 32 EUs
  • High energy efficiency for mobile devices
  • Panther Lake architecture for daily workloads
