The Lenovo Ideapad 330, will be the first laptop to implement the Intel Core i3 8121U, a 10nm processor

Without making much noise, Intel will begin to market the Core i3 8121U, based on the 10nm process and will be implemented in the Lenovo Ideapad 330, which will only be sold in China.

Intel is currently facing many production problems for 10nm chips, because this process is not yet stable and the wafer failure rate is almost 50%, making it impossible to market processors at a reasonable price . The company is delaying the launch of the processors that will be destined for gaming and HEDT equipment, but the Intel Core i3 8121U will possibly hit the market shortly, which will be the first Intel processor manufactured in 10nm to be commercialized and will be destined for the market mobile.

Lenovo Ideapad 330 will be the first laptop to implement the 3nm Intel Core i8121 10U.

Lenovo will be the first company to implement this Core i3 8121U processor in a laptop, specifically in the Lenovo Ideapad 330. Another feature of this laptop is that it will only be available in China, due to the low production of processors.

About the Core i3 8121U, we must say that it has not even been presented, its launch has been a bit dark. Regarding the characteristics, it will have two cores and four processing threads, working at a frequency of 2.2GHz and a Boost frequency of 3.2GHz. It does not have an iGPU, something quite rare and will have a TDP of 15W.

You can see the full specifications of this processor on the Intel ARK, where all the characteristics of the company's processors are shown. Another curiosity is that it does not have a recommended price, something quite unusual. The fact, in addition, that dedicated graphics from AMD or NVIDIA are needed, means an increase in laptop costs, something that must also be taken into account.
