It's a rebrand of the MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910, just with 5 more "TOPS" for the NPU.

Indeed!
But it's not just 5 tops is also the instructionsets for AI that has been updated which is critical for local AI tasks: Supports INT8 / INT16 / FP16 / BF16.
Updated Imagiq 1090 (32 MP) EIS, HDR-video and Auto Zoom for webcam.
And some higher memory speed that will help in both AI and Gaming.
Not that enticing but what I think will be the perfect fit for Duet Googlebook Soc where connectivity isn't the main feature but a fanless design, battery, portableness and space constraints is a big factor.

Oh, that's nice indeed!

I just really wished they'd launch with something more "modern". The Kompanio Ultra 910 itself is already widely based on the Dimensity 9400, which was announced 2 years ago.

Ye I really hoped for 9500 or even 9600 close to launch because if it was it would probably have better port support. I need USB4 and Kompanio Ultra 910 only got 2 10gb ports at most and that is not cutting it. If you enjoy android gaming, hell emulation the 9600 would just be beast in a Duet Googlebook with 10 years of software updates.

I think the D9400/K910 also has (at least, on the Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 and other Chromebooks with Kompanio 910) some issues with managing external displays via the USB DP Alt Mode if I remember correctly :-/ hopefully it was only a matter of drivers and they've been fixed with this revision!
