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.

Intel's "Arrow Lake" architecture has returned for a redemption tour on laptops with the debut of Intel Core Ultra 200H and Intel Core Ultra 200HX chipsets.

In the other direction we have Intel’s new Arrow Lake-HX chips, which are expected to ship later in the first quarter of 2025. Designed for laptops with discrete graphics, Intel equipped these chips with only 4-core integrated graphics, but the processors feature more CPU cores, support for higher frequencies, and more PCIe lanes.
