    Before it was Intel Core i5 so it’s simpler than the old name

      Well officially yes, but I don’t know anyone that consistently called it “Intel Core i5” instead of just “i5”. And I don’t see that happening with just “5”.

          That’s exactly the point I’m trying to make. “i5” as an answer would’ve made sense, but “5” doesn’t

            I get it - I was just emphasizing it :P

            Was there really a problem with the naming? I don’t see why they’d change it given they’ve spent a long time building the brand.

              Ha okay. I wasn’t quite sure whether you’re emphasizing or did misunderstood me.

              Honestly I have no idea what the issue was with the old naming scheme. Didn’t they just recently introduce an i9? Why not continue with an i11 etc instead of this Ultra nonsense.
