Comparing processors that are a year apart from one another is almost unfair, since technology nowadays moves so fast. But this doesn’t seem to be the case with the Intel Pentium 2127U and the Intel Core i3 2365M.
Despite the Pentium being a year newer than the i3, the latter is still capable of holding its own against its newer counterpart. But, in the end, the Pentium is just superior and here is why. Firstly the Pentium offers more clock speed per core- 1.9GHz to the 1.4GHz of the i3. The i3, however, is hyperthreaded which shrinks the difference between the two somewhat, but not enough. Furthermore the Pentium comes with more features and a better memory controller, along with higher performance-per-watt score, and a higher number of displays its GPU can support.
The Intel i3 2365M is a decent piece of technology, but despite its hyperthreading the Intel Pentium 2127U just outperforms it in general.
