In addition to the upcoming reformulations and new releases from Kanebo Allie and KosΓ© Suncut, here are some other upcoming sunscreen and makeup primer releases from Japanese brands as of January 2022:
- Cezanne UV Tone Up Base will add a pink version to its line-up in late January 2022. Both the existing product and the new pink version are SPF 50+ PA++++ and only contain inorganic (mineral) filters. 748 JPY for 30 g. Press release here.
- Edit: This was already at my local drugstore as of January 15. Ingredient lists and packaging photos posted in this comment on this post (and then reposted as this post).
- Shiseido will be releasing a new SPF 50+ PA++++ quasi-drug serum from their brightening brand Haku, Haku Melanofocus UV, on January 21. Press release here, RatzillaCosme entry here. (Not as expensive as I expected at 5,280 JPY incl. tax for 45 mLβI would describe Haku as a luxury drugstore brandβbut still way beyond my budget personally.) Itβs also now on Shiseidoβs official online store (including the ingredient list) here.
- On January 22, Kanebo will be releasing three new colors in addition to Coffret dβOr Skin Illusion Primer UV, an SPF 50+ PA+++ makeup primer, as Coffret dβOr Skin Illusion Primer UV n. The new additions are in green, pink, and purple. Product catalogue entry with ingredient lists here, 3080 JPY for 25 mL according to this article.
- On February 1, Taisho Pharmaceutical will be releasing a new series of SPF 50+ PA++++ color-correcting sunscreen
With Rembrandt nearly upon us, it's been a year since the 5000 mobile series was announced with the 5300u/5500u/5700u Lucienne processors based on Zen 2 and the 5600u/5800u Cezanne processors based on Zen 3. Yet almost all current AMD laptops are using Lucienne. Cezanne is virtually unavailable aside from a few H-series laptops. What happened? Did AMD ever explain why the Zen 3 U series never went into mass production?
I followed all instructions, setting mobo to default, and HWINFO64 judt does not show PRD. I suspect theres something funny happening because PPT does not reach 100% in Cinebench, but I don't know how to diagnose without PRD. Any suggestions?
disclaimer: This is not a leak, nor is it suggesting it will happen.
I understand it is not the opinion of everyone, but linus suggested that the surface book 3 as a product category may be too weak on the CPU side, especially since it is only rocking a 4 core 8 thread CPU, and it is unable to boost well due to the thermal considerations. Also what seems to be the consensus amongst reviewers is that the ryzen CPUs has better low wattage performance. So I thought that a 5800u or a theoretical 6800u with 8 cores or even a 5600u or 6600u with 6 cores would improve the surface book series considerably. add a 6500m or a 3050ti of sorts and you get a substantially better surface book then before. What do you people think? I understand microsoft is closer to intel than amd, because they used tigerlake H35 chip which is a glorified 1135g7 and 1165g7 instead of a proper HS chip.
For reference, this is the machine I have:
Ryzen 9 5900HS CE with 4266 Mhz LPDDR4x. And it runs the Infinity Fabric (FCLK) at a measly 1600Mhz, while it should be 2133Mhz.
There's absolutely no reason it shouldn't be possible to change it, either through a lightweight Ryzen Master app for mobile APU's, or start pressuring OEM's to include it in their BIOS.
There is AATU (AMD APU Tuning Utility), but this does not allow changing FCLK, only control the dynamic FCLK scaling.
This is not just a problem on the specific laptop I have, this is a widespread issue that needs addressing. It's literally performance we are missing out on...
EDIT: Should be possible for ALL Ryzen APU's.

The Pro 16 seems to support USB4 (finally) ! These ProArt laptops seem to check almost every box you could ask for β Powerful CPU, good screen, dGPU with a decent TGP and decent I/O. All that remains to be seen is availability and QC.
Edit: Also for maybe the first time ever, the Intel model of a laptop (VivoBook 14X) comes with 16GB max RAM but the AMD one comes with max 32GB. Oh how the turntablesβ¦.
