INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
new new 8th Gen Intel Core U-series processors (code-named Whisky Lake): the Core i7-8565U, i5-8265U and i3-8145U, will come with integrated
Intel Wireless-AC modules for Gigabit Wi-Fi for up to 12 times faster connectivity speeds.Intel also promises Whisky Lake CPUs will garner
two times better performance, compared to a 5-year-old PC
Compared to a 7th Generation Kaby Lake processor, we supposedly can expect double-digit gains in office productivity for everyday web
browsing and light content creation.As with every iteration of its processor, Intel expects laptops and 2-in-1 devices will last even
longer, up to between 16 and 19 hours on a single charge
using just its integrated graphics alone.Lastly, the new U-series processor can also support Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos immersive
All of these improvements comes by way of the 8th Generation platform's new PCH, which integrates a quad-core audio DSP and integrated
wireless MAC to support the 802.11AC w/ 160MHz channels.It remains to be seen whether these processor will replace the Coffee Lake
processors Intel just announced in April 2018 or the Kaby Lake-Refresh processor that launched a year ago, or will they just sit alongside
the existing two families as an option for users who want to stay connected.Ambling onIntel also introduced a new trio of Y-Series 8th
Generation Amber Lake processors (including the Core i7-8500, i5-8200Y, m3-8100Y) that bring forth even more connectivity support.Unlike the
new Whisky Lake CPUs, Amber Lake doesn't integrate built-in Wi-Fi modules
online Windows 10 devices
Rather, it just has the eSIM support ready for manufacturers who also want to include an LTE modem in the device.The integrated graphics on
Y-series chips has also been slightly improved, giving users the ability to watch 1080p, 4K or 360 videos (and preview multiple video
An Intel spokesperson also told us we can expect up to 9.5 hours of battery life while playing a 4K 10bit HEVC video on local playback.Intel
promises that these new Y-series chips will deliver double-digit gains in performance compared to the previous generation processors in the
thinnest and lightest laptops and 2-in-1s on the market

millimeters thick and lighter than 1 pound.RM2iVrMcuKbnPSjaxp546n.jpg#
