And do you think this is Comet Lake-U 4+2? Whiskey Lake just launched and now we may get another refresh.
It's just Whiskey Lake rebranded. OEMs got mad and demanded they up the naming I figure.

Intel® platform codes
Apollo Lake: IAP, Broadwell: IBD, Braswell: IBR, Broadwell: IBW, Baytrail: IBY, Cannonlake: ICN, Haswell: IHH, Kabylake: IKB, Skylake H: ISH, Skylake: ISK, Skylake U: ISU, Skylake Y: ISY,
Skylake Z: ISZ, Gemini Lake: IGM, Whiskey Lake: IWL
This seems more plausible to me than the claim from IntelUser2000 because there is no sign of a Comet Lake-U 4+2 existence.
So... Is there anything interesting coming up for the 15W bracket in 2019? Or is it all up in the air still? I've been meaning to upgrade my 2015 Broadwell (5300U) laptop in 2019 (actually planned the upgrade for 2018 from the beginning), but if there's no node change and/or real architecture refresh planned, I might as well just buy something right now.

I have to add something. There is a Whiskey Lake V0 stepping in the works labeled as 2019 product, pretty sure this is the 9th gen refresh leak from Lenovo, it's not a pure renaming though. This info comes from a ww34 document (late August), it's not even new. Claiming there won't come 10nm ICL-U in 2019 based on this is over the top therefore.
As GT3 SKU only according to older roadmaps, in this case it doesn't matter.
Thanks. I'll probably wait it out until the middle of 2019 and see where things are going.Icelake is still coming for mobile in 2019 (U/Y, maybe H). The volume may not be that high though. The leaks have only talked about Comet Lake U being 28W only but Intel could of course just sell 15W models or rebrand Whiskey Lake.
Could be a real big improvement in MT and the GPU at the 15W level.
From what I've heard from reliable leakers, there are Comet Lake-U 6+2 and 4+2. The basic version (LPDDR3) of Comet Lake-U will come out first and then followed by the performance version that supports LPDDR4X in 2020.
I would say this is nonsense, I mean 6+2 ULV on 14nm, reliable leakers lol. Clearly rubbish.
2800-2900 score in Timespy Physics is comparable to 4 core 15W U chips like the 8250U, 8550U.
Forgot to mention on this, you can't really tell what Physics test it is. It could be Fire Strike or Cloud Gate even.

I do wonder if it's actually 1 Icelake core (with HT turned off) + 4 Tremont cores. 2+4 would make more sense but maybe they could only fit one in the TDP on the new 10 nm process, especially given they are using Tigerlake's bigger CPU core.
People might've said that about a 4+2 part on 14nm...and yet, here we are.
Hooray for a move away from LPDDR3!
You make a lot of assumptions. Why would Lakefield be using the Tiger Lake core?
The new Icelake is using Tigerlake's CPU core changes, including the increase to 512 KB L2/core. Lakefield would obviously need to use that for the Icelake portion since it will also need to be on the new process.
Why do you assume that the "original" Ice Lake didn't have 512KB of L2$ per core.
Also, do you think that the SoCs called "Tiger Lake" that come out will have an n+1 generation core inside of them, too?
