I’m looking at buying an ASUS Zenbook for light work, movies, and some light games (mainly Football Manager). The Meteor Lake Ultra 7 155h and the Lunar Lake Ultra 5 226v are very similarly priced (around £900). Which one is better?
Since the Lunar Lake is a very low-end Ultra 5, I’ve seen some benchmarks saying it performs quite poorly. I’m looking for suggestions on which would be better value for money for my uses.
Based on your needs, the Meteor Lake Ultra 7 155h would likely be the better choice. It has better performance metrics across the board, especially for light gaming and multitasking.
I agree with TechGuru. The Lunar Lake performance is quite underwhelming, especially for gaming. Meteor Lake should handle Football Manager and regular tasks much better.
If you’re mainly using it for light work and movies, you might save some money with the Lunar Lake, but you’ll sacrifice performance. It’s a trade-off depending on how important gaming is for you.
