I just can't seem to figure out why did they even come out with apu.
At first I would have thought they will come out with an apu that can do real gaming and low voltage and low heat. So you can fit into a tablet. Something like a gaming tablet which have about 4 hr battery life when gaming. It alrdy the 7th gen apu and that still doesn't do much. They say the a12 will do 2x gaming over an i5 cpu on a laptop "plz don't quote me on this I'm just giving a number I read somewhere online". But that is without a gpu for the i5. Which we all know all laptop without gpu is not build for gaming. Price. The a12 laptop range about 1200 cad. Which I'm sure with that money you can go for an i5 with a OK gou laptop alrdy. So I just don't get it. Can anyone enlight me with why? Thax

Marketing mate, just ignore it completely

Are you looking for a tablet/laptop? Then choose a price range, bring the options down to 4-5 and compare them through specs/reviews/benchmarks
Best one wins, may it be amd or intel, new gen or last gen cpu/gpu, etc
