Qualcomm unveiled the Snapdragon X Elite processor in October last year. The chipmaker recently announced an affordable version of the Elite, the Snapdragon X Plus. For those unaware, the company’s Snapdragon X series is for PC platforms and aims to compete against legacy chipmakers Intel and AMD and even Apple’s M-series. Snapdragon X CPU-powered laptops are surfacing in benchmarks in recent times with the latest one coming from Dell. 

Dell Inspiron 14 Plus 7441 appears on Geekbench

The Geekbench listing confirms that Dell is working on a Snapdragon X-powered CPU laptop. The database mentions it as a Dell Inspiron 14 Plus 7441. It reveals a Snapdragon X Elite (X1E80100) processor with cluster 1 comprising of eight cores and cluster 2 of four cores. The CPU is clocked at a base frequency of 3.42 GHz. The laptop is listed with 16GB RAM onboard and runs on Windows 11 Pro OS out of the box. 

In the Geekbench’s single-core and multi-core test results, the Dell Inspiron 14 Plus 7441 scored 1,765 and 4,367 points respectively. The multi-core scores of the laptop are weirdly lower under 5,000 compared to the Microsoft Surface 6 and Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge which have the same chipset underneath but ticking at a speed of 4.01GHz.

The Dell Inspiron 14 Plus 7441 is likely tested with incorrect settings or lower power configuration that resulted in much lower multi-core test scores. A higher clock speed would have recorded better performance results. It’s worth noting that several factors affect the benchmark scores. 

Alongside Microsoft, Samsung, and Dell, a Lenovo laptop had also surfaced on Geekbench with Snapdragon X Elite last month.
