It's a mobile CPU used in laptops but still, Intel has added the Core i3-8121U to its ARK website, and that is the first chip produced at 10nm. The Core i3-8121U is a dual-core processor with a 2.2 GHz base clock and 3.2 GHz Turbo ability. This is a Hyper-threading enabled SKU and thus offers work on four threads.

What's interesting is that it is a 10nm cannon lake processor, which indicates that Intel is ready to fab 10nm processors in bigger volumes. When it comes to pure specifications, the  Core i3-8121U really isn't an improvement compared to the Core i3-8130U, made at 14nm. That is a variant with a GPU and a higher turbo speed of 3.4 GHz, the Core i3-8121U does not get an IGP. The proc a has a cache of 4 MB also, totally similar. Laptops that use the Core i3-8121U will this require an extra GPU, something like the Radeon RX 540. What is notable is that the Core i38121U supports lpddr4, ergo 16GB laptops are possible.
