What you need to know
- Intel confirms it will livestream a launch event for its new Lunar Lake mobile processors in Berlin, Germany, on September 3, 2024.
- The stream starts at 9 AM PDT (12 PM ET) with a recorded replay available via Intel’s Newsroom portal.
- Lunar Lake’s launch lands only a few days before IFA 2024, a technology conference also hosted in Berlin, which begins on September 6.
As a seasoned tech analyst with over two decades of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that the upcoming Lunar Lake mobile processors from Intel are shaping up to be quite intriguing. With its focus on power efficiency and performance, Intel seems to be setting the stage for a fierce competition in the mobile processor market.
Originally slated for a Q3 2024 launch, Intel has officially set a concrete release date for its upcoming Core Ultra 200 series mobile processors, known as Lunar Lake. The unveiling will take place on September 3, 2024, at 9 AM PDT (12 PM ET), during a live stream event where the company will disclose details about performance and likely a variety of SKUs with different performance levels.
Previously, VideoCardz suggested that there may be a leak regarding the upcoming Intel Core Ultra 200V processors, indicating that up to nine different versions might be made available. The list of processors spans from a 17-watt Core Ultra 5 226V, featuring 16GB of built-in LPDDR5X-8533 memory, to a 30-watt Core Ultra 9 288V with 32GB. All the models could potentially handle a maximum turbo power of 30 watts. However, we’ll need to wait until September for confirmation on these specifications, as they appear to align with Intel’s intended performance level.
Before the IFA 2024 conference, come along with Michelle Johnston Holthaus, Intel’s executive vice president and head of the Client Computing Group, Jim Johnson, Intel’s senior vice president and head of the Client Business Group, and other Intel partners as they unveil the upcoming generation of Intel Core Ultra processors, referred to as Lunar Lake.
The launch of the product is scheduled slightly earlier than IFA 2024, opening to the public on September 6, 2024, in Berlin, Germany. Originally, Intel was anticipated to announce Lunar Lake at this event. Fortunately, the keynote can be streamed live on Intel’s Newsroom, and a replay will be available for those who can’t watch it live.
It’s uncertain if vendors will showcase Lunar Lake laptops for demonstrations at IFA 2024, but there’s a good chance one might be on display. Windows Central reporters will be present during the event in Berlin, so we’ll be looking out for chances to test these devices firsthand.
What is Lunar Lake?
Intel’s Lunar Lake refers to its newest series of mobile processors, which carry the new ‘Core Ultra’ label. This is the second iteration of chips adopting this naming scheme after a shift away from the traditional ‘i5’, ‘i7’, and ‘i9’ patterns. The forthcoming Core Ultra 200 series in Lunar Lake successes the earlier Core Ultra 100, codenamed Meteor Lake.
During Intel’s Tech Tour press conference in Taipei, we caught a glimpse of some details about Lunar Lake, such as one Neural Processing Unit (NPU) in the new Core Ultra 200 SKUs boasting a Tera Operations per Second (TOPS) count of 48. However, they kept secret specifics like average or peak Thermal Design Power (TDP). The showcased presentations of Intel’s newest ‘Skymont’ Efficient Cores (E-Cores), on the other hand, emphasized substantial power management and efficiency enhancements compared to the power-consuming Hyper-Threading technology used in Meteor Lake’s System-on-Chip (SoC), as it transitions away from this power-intensive method.
To enhance battery longevity, Lunar Lake lowers the Power Consumption of the SoC by as much as 40%. This significant advancement in technology is bound to be noticeable on your mobile devices.
In essence, Intel’s upcoming Lunar Lake promises improved efficiency with a potential reduction in power consumption by up to 40% compared to Meteor Lake. The key advantages are longer battery life and enhanced performance. However, these improvements are consistent with the objectives of any new processor generation. To outshine competitors like Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X platform and AMD’s latest Ryzen AI 300 Series mobile chips, Intel needs to excel in integrating its CPU, GPU, NPU components with on-chip LPDDR5X memory effectively.
