Since all of the systems have speedy SSDs, they all
performed equally well on the PCMark 8 test. The
Latitude 7200 2-in-1’s performance on the PCMark 10
test is especially noteworthy, though, since it parallels

Next is Maxon’s CPU-crunching Cinebench R15 test,
which is fully threaded to make use of all available
processor cores and threads. Cinebench stresses the
CPU rather than the GPU to render a complex image.
The result is a proprietary score indicating a PC’s
suitability for processor-intensive workloads, and it’s
clearly a win for the Latitude 7200 2-in-1.


The same goes for our custom Adobe Photoshop image-
editing benchmark, which applies a series of 10 complex

time each operation and, at the end, add up the total
execution time. The Photoshop test stresses CPU,
storage subsystem, and RAM, but it can also take
advantage of most GPUs to speed up the process of

chips or cards may see a boost.


Despite its
small size and
low weight,

manages to fit

a larger laptop.
