"Panther Lake, our lead product on Intel 18A, will launch in the second half of this year. It will take everything you love about Lunar Lake, all the advances in the architecture, to the next level. We have systems already running Panther Lake, and we're sampling it across all of our major customers already."

Intel has been steadily losing share in the PC CPU market to Advanced Micro Devices over much of the past decade. In the laptop CPU market, Intel still held a 77.7% unit market share in the second quarter of 2024. However, that's down from more than 90% in 2016.

Intel has pulled back the curtain on "Arrow Lake" mobile silicon in the U, H, and HX series for the new year, focusing on increased power profiles and less on AI. Plus: "Lunar Lake" gets vPro.

The company's typical slew of CES announcements made answering "Which do you want?" more difficult than usual.

Intel is revving up its AI chip lineup at CES 2025. Today, the company unveiled the Core Ultra 200H chips for "performance thin and light" notebooks, alongside the Core Ultra 200HX chips for mobile gamers who demand powerful discrete GPUs.

The Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors are rolling out later in the year, introducing improved performance and better protection against malware.

Intel's press demos at CES 2025 include three ODM laptops and two mini dev kits for Panther Lake, powered by Celestial GPU architecture.
