Hey Guys, I'm an intel guy but all my research says that AMD is the way to go for battery life and performance. I plan on buying the base model of either. The month or two wait is not an issue for me, so I'm just worried about performance and battery life, or quirks (battery drain etc...). Any suggestions would be helpful.

What do you plan to do with it because I was pleasantly surprised that my intel 13th Gen i5 was like 10-20% faster in single-core benchmarks than the Ryzen models.

(I think it was even 10% faster than the R7 but don't remember for sure).

Since single core is what matters for most tasks of basic users, this may matter for you too.
