The 7735HS is basically the same as the 6800HS was; there is literally no difference apart from the clock speed (0.5GHz)... At the very least, AMD could have considered integrating a 780M iGPU into this one, so we would have a reason to buy it. But as it stands, it's a hard pass unless it's somehow cheaper than the 6800H(S) or 12700H.

usually a cpu ending on 35 is older architecture

I can live with the battery inefficiency that the Intel Core i7 12700H has because the performance power is great. For work use at home or the office, I've mostly plugged in anyway. For home personal use, again battery life isn't too important because I'm plugged in for anything serious. If a person travels for work frequently or is into gaming/video editing, then the Ryzen 77735HS starts to become more important. The battery life and GPU performance matter a lot in those situations.
