Ryzen really shook things up when it came out. They were running on par, or nearly on par, with Intel's current offering for like 2/3 the price.

The laptop APUs were better than Intel, with lower power, and far better graphics!

It got even more dramatic in the 4000 series. Renior is one of the best chips AMD ever made.

TBH the press just had a hard time comprehending it back then, and it was lest dramatic on desktop (or tanky desktop-sized laptops with dGPUs) because Intel's chips could clock higher for single-threaded workloads (at the expense of mad power usage).
