Although the eighth generation of Core has been released for some time, the i3 of the U series has never appeared. After all, the i5 has such specifications, the TDP has not changed, and the market of the i3 of the U series may not be so valued. We had speculated that the eighth generation Core U Series i3 would be upgraded from dual core to quad core, while the number of threads would remain the same. It looked like a low-voltage version of i3 8100, but the reality was not so good.

At present, the foreign media Laptopmedia has obtained the detailed information of i3 8130U. It will still maintain dual core and four threads, but the difference is that i3 8130U supports Remax. Compared with the previous generation i3-7130U, the i3-8130U is somewhat like the i5 7200U. The i3-8130U is destined to be a niche product. For the low-power market, there are already i5-8250U artifacts. The i3-8130U should be aimed at some PC tablet 2-in-1 products and ultra portable notebooks that focus on endurance.
