Intel Core 7 150U vs Qualcomm Snapdragon X1P-26-100 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data does not include any direct head-to-head benchmark results between the Intel Core 7 150U and the Qualcomm Snapdragon X1P-26-100. The database shows no shared test scores, no win counts, and no comparative deltas for these two processors. This is an unusual situation because the Intel part has a full suite of benchmark results while the Qualcomm part currently has no benchmark entries at all.

The Intel Core 7 150U delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 8883 and a single-core score of 1875.5. In Cinebench R20, it scores 5248 multi-core and 740 single-core. The older Cinebench R15 test shows 1505.5 multi-core and 254 single-core. Geekbench results show 6234 multi-core and 1857 single-core. PassMark tests include a multi-thread score of 14700, a single-thread score of 3508, integer math at 51057, floating point math at 34405, extended instructions at 8748, data compression at 158622, data encryption at 10025, physics at 1012, random string sorting at 18269, and find prime numbers at 58.

The average benchmark score for the Intel Core 7 150U is 17395. It sits at the 71st percentile among all CPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 with an average score of 17333 and a delta of 0.4 percent, the AMD Ryzen 3 210 with 17321 and a delta of 0.4 percent, the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE with 17482 and a delta of negative 0.5 percent, and the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G with 17507 and a delta of negative 0.6 percent. These margins are extremely tight, meaning the Intel part performs in the same band as those established desktop and mobile chips.

For the Qualcomm Snapdragon X1P-26-100, the database lists no benchmark scores, no average score, and no nearest rivals. The percentile field shows 50, but with zero recorded measurements, this is not a meaningful comparison point. Any claim about how the Snapdragon performs relative to the Intel part would require data that does not exist in the database.

Where Each One Wins

Based strictly on recorded data, the Intel Core 7 150U wins every measurable category because it is the only one of the two with benchmark results. The Qualcomm Snapdragon X1P-26-100 has no recorded wins in any test because no test results are present. The database shows winsA as 0 and winsB as 0, confirming that no head-to-head wins have been recorded for either processor.

The Intel part shows strength across multiple workload types. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 8883 indicates solid performance in rendering and heavily threaded productivity tasks. The single-core score of 1875.5 in the same test suggests responsive performance in lightly threaded applications. PassMark integer math at 51057 and floating point math at 34405 point to strong general computational throughput. The data compression score of 158622 is particularly high, indicating efficiency in compression workloads. Encryption at 10025 and extended instructions at 8748 add further evidence of broad capability.

The Qualcomm part cannot be assigned any workload strengths based on the database because there are no measurements. The processor exists in the database with specifications, but its performance profile is unrecorded. The database does list an average benchmark score of 0, which should not be interpreted as a real performance result; it simply reflects the absence of data.

Architecture Differences

The Intel Core 7 150U uses Raptor Lake architecture with the Raptor Lake-U codename. It is built on a 10 nm process at Intel's foundry. The Qualcomm Snapdragon X1P-26-100 uses the Oryon codename and belongs to the Snapdragon X Plus generation. It is built on a 4 nm process at TSMC.

The Verdict

The database contains a complete performance profile for the Intel Core 7 150U and no performance profile for the Qualcomm Snapdragon X1P-26-100. Anyone choosing between these two parts on the basis of recorded benchmark data can only select the Intel part, because it is the only one with measurements. The Intel part delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 8883, a Geekbench multi-core score of 6234, and a PassMark multi-thread score of 14700, placing it at the 71st percentile of all CPUs.

The Qualcomm part offers a more advanced 4 nm process, a higher base clock of 3.00 GHz, more PCIe lanes, and a listed memory bandwidth of 135.2 GB/s. It also uses newer cache organization with larger per-core allocations. These specifications suggest the part is designed for a different efficiency profile, but without benchmark scores, the database cannot confirm how those specifications translate into application performance. The 25 watt TDP is higher than the Intel part's 15 watt TDP, which means the Qualcomm part is not necessarily the lower-power option despite the smaller process node.

For workloads where measured performance matters, the Intel Core 7 150U is the only part with evidence. The Intel part shows strength in both multi-threaded and single-threaded tasks across Cinebench, Geekbench, and PassMark suites. Its average score of 17395 places it in the same performance band as the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 and AMD Ryzen 5 4600G, with deltas under one percent in either direction. The Qualcomm part cannot be positioned relative to any rivals because the database lists none. The data supports choosing the Intel part for confirmed performance, while the Qualcomm part remains a specification-only entry awaiting benchmark coverage.
