Intel Launches 13th Gen Mobile Series Lineup: Details Here!

Jan. 4, 2023



Intel H series has always been known for its highest performance ratio when it comes to laptops. However, Intel has now taken it further and launched the 13th Gen H series, which includes new chips with improved performance. The H processors can work in tandem with industry-leading features like DDR5 memory and PCIe Gen 5 storage.

The strongest mobile chip, however, is the newestIntel Core i9-13980HX. The 980HX is a24-core(8 Performance-cores, 16 Efficient-cores)processor that features clock speeds as high as5.6GHzwhich makes the chip the world’s fastest mobile processor on the market right now. This also means the chip delivers up to 11% faster single-thread performance and up to 49% multitasking performance over the last generation.

The new H series processors also come with much-needed features likeWi-Fi 6E (Gig+), Bluetooth 5.2, Thunderbolt 4 support, and an improved integrated graphics experience. The new HX and HK CPUs can be overclocked to boost them further.

Intel has paid equal attention to the thin and light genre of machines with its launch of the 13th Gen P and U-series that focus on performance and portability. The lineup comes with a variety of chipsets that come up with up to14 cores (6 Performance-cores, 8 Efficient-cores). The chips also come with an enhanced Intel Thread Director to leverage greater performance.

The new line-up combined with the features above is sure to elevate the Intel experience when it comes to lightweight machines. As per Intel, we can expect over300 unique designscoming from manufacturers like Acer, Dell, ASUS, HP, and more.

For graphic work, the P and U-series chips also come with new andimproved Intel Iris Xe Graphicsthat feature XeSS Super Sampling and Intel Arc Control. Memory and storage broaden with better support for DDR5 support alongside the existing DDR4 support. Like the Intel H series, the new lightweight series also comes with Intel Wi-Fi 6E (Gig+), Intel Connectivity Performance Suite, and up to 4 thunderbolt ports.

Select Intel chips will now have theIntel Movidius vision processing unit (VPU). The purpose of the VPU is to offload certain CPU and GPU-heavy tasks to the former, which frees up resources for the chips to handle other workloads. This has been made possible by co-engineering with Microsoft on its new Windows Studio effects.

Since Intel has bid goodbye to the Pentium and Celeron processors, there is a void to be filled. Thankfully, Intel has launched the newN series familyof processors including a new Intel Core i3 that has been built for entry-level and education computing.

The N series features new efficient cores that have been built on Intel 7 process technology. The new series also provides up to28% better application performanceand64% better graphics performancecompared to the previous generation. As expected the series also come with flexible memory and storage options including LPDDR5, DDR5, and DDR4 memory.
