Who is saying that ultrabook should not a dGPU? What I am saying that new ultrabook releasing in 2020 should have gpu which have new architecture, not the architecture released in 2016.
And who really cares? Those types of laptops are mainly for office working, not gaming nor video editing or similar. It's a specialized segment, you can buy ryzen laptops with 1650m for 600 if you want a cheap laptop with some gaming capability, but in ultrabooks the gaming capability is just an addon.
Would I want more modern gpus on ultrabooks? Sure I do, like I want a gt1030 refresh for my htpc, and I also want a house in the beach. But things cost money and time, and unless this 4 year old gpu gets really old to do their work properly, they are not renewing it. How many years have been intel and amd using the same igpus? Enough years to justify their retirement.
Well both Ice Lake, Comet Lake new iGPU that is not released in 4 years ago.
And still they suck balls compared to nvidia and amd counterparts, because they are done with a specific cost in mind for a specific consumer target.
