Slightly more grunt than the 225U variant. The Intel Core Ultra 5 135H pushes 14 cores and 18 threads with turbo up to 4.6GHz. If you're running heavier workloads — data processing, light 3D, multiple VMs — this is the step up without jumping to a full workstation. 16GB DDR5-5600, expandable to 64GB. 512GB NVMe SSD with a second M.2 slot if you need more space later. Intel Arc integrated graphics for GPU-assisted tasks. Thunderbolt 4 for docking or an external display. Same 1.7kg aluminium-and-PC chassis, same 16-inch WUXGA panel. One-year onsite warranty included
