New devices powered by Core Ultra series 2 should be more powerful and last longer.
Right now, the race seems too close to call.
Intel is also promising improved graphical performance on top of superior efficiency, including when rendering and decoding 4K files.
AI is, as always, a huge focus for these new chips.
