A side-by-side review published October 7, 2026, reported higher benchmark scores for the Dell XPS Googlebook with Snapdragon X Elite than for the Lenovo Googlebook 15 with Intel Core Ultra 5 325. After several days with the laptops, the reviewer described their everyday performance as broadly similar.
Both tested configurations had 16 GB of LPDDR5X memory and a 512 GB SSD. The results below apply to these two laptops and the named tests.
Geekbench 7: Dell leads on both scores
Geekbench 7 measures processor performance. Its single-core score reflects work on one CPU core, while the multi-core score covers work across multiple cores. The reported results were 2,573 single-core and 12,083 multi-core for Dell, compared with 2,396 and 10,077 for Lenovo.
3DMark Wild Life Extreme: a one-minute graphics test
The Dell also scored higher in the one-minute 3DMark Wild Life Extreme test: 6,018, with an average of 36.04 frames per second (FPS). The Lenovo scored 3,525 and averaged 21.11 FPS.
| Tested laptop and processor | Geekbench 7 single-core | Geekbench 7 multi-core | 3DMark Wild Life Extreme score | 3DMark average FPS | Memory | Storage |
| Lenovo Googlebook 15 — Intel Core Ultra 5 325 | 2,396 | 10,077 | 3,525 | 21.11 | 16 GB LPDDR5X | 512 GB SSD |
| Dell XPS Googlebook — Snapdragon X Elite | 2,573 | 12,083 | 6,018 | 36.04 | 16 GB LPDDR5X | 512 GB SSD |
Everyday performance felt broadly similar
After several days of use, the reviewer reported no major everyday-performance difference between the laptops. That was a qualitative impression, not the result of a standardized productivity workload. The reviewer preferred the Lenovo’s size and keyboard.
For these two tested configurations, the Dell led in Geekbench 7 and the one-minute 3DMark run; the Lenovo was the reviewer’s preference for size and keyboard. The results describe this pair under these tests, not every Googlebook or every laptop using Intel or Snapdragon processors.
