Intel’s ‘Intel Processor’ to Replace Pentium, Celeron Brands for Laptops in 2023
Intel is discontinuing the legendary Celeron and Pentium brands used in its basic notebook CPUs. Instead, starting in 2023, they will go by the discreet name of “Intel processors.” The move will allow the company to increase its focus on premium Core, Evo, and vPro brands and sell more premium CPUs.
For now, Intel will continue to use the Celeron and Pentium brands for desktop and embedded applications. When asked how this branding change would affect desktops, Intel replied, “Desktops have no new products in this segment he has planned for Q1 2023.” rice field.
Intel’s notebook product stack now includes various Core-branded processors for high-performance, mid-range, and entry-level laptops, as well as Pentium and Celeron-badged CPUs for inexpensive essential systems. . After 2023, Intel will continue to integrate the Pentium and Celeron product families under the Intel processor umbrella to serve their respective market segments. The new brand will not change Intel’s existing processors (sold under its own name) and the company’s product roadmap.
Josh Newman, Intel vice president and interim general manager of mobile client platforms, said:
The merger could clear up some confusion between the various Pentium and Celeron branded laptop products, but it could also create new embarrassments.
intel mobile pentium gold Products are based on the company’s designs featuring high-performance or high-performance and energy-efficient cores, providing an experience that rivals full-fledged Core processors. For example, the company currently has one high-performance Golden Cove and four energy-efficient Gracemont cores (8505).
Intel’s mobile Celeron processors are also based on the company’s designs with performance (6305) or performance and efficient cores (7305). However, since they are under mobile Pentiums, they have lower clocks, smaller caches, and lack certain features. Still, these are still very capable chips for basic workloads.
Combining the mobile Pentium Gold and Celeron product families into one Intel processor lineup makes sense provided the model numbers accurately represent their performance and features.
There are also other Celeron and Pentium branded processors for laptops.intel mobile Celeron N When pentium silver The processor is based on the energy-efficient Atom-class core and rarely offers performance that comes even slightly closer to mobile Pentium Gold and “vanilla” Celeron CPUs with high-performance cores. Intel didn’t refresh these product families this year as Alder Lake-N designs with only energy efficient Gracemont cores are yet to come out. However, Intel is indeed gearing up for the launch of these system-on-chips, which could serve the Celeron N and Pentium Silver market segments.
We don’t know if Intel plans to add Alder Lake-N to their Intel processor lineup for mobile PCs. But if so, pouring a design based solely on the energy-efficient Atom-class core into an entirely different lineup of chips would cause a lot of confusion.
