7520u isn't Ryzen 5. It's literally Ryzen 7320u with slightly higher clock (which it won't hold in badly cooled notebooks it's offered with). With iGPU worse than 5000 series Vega 7. 15W 6-core proper Ryzen 5 is way to go. Same consumption, much more power when needed, almost same price. Just Google benchmarks like: Ryzen "7520u" vs "7562j" And you'll see the mind boggling difference.
