CES 2022 is over, and while the show was a little more low-key than usual this year thanks to some last-minute COVID-19 complications, computing enthusiasts still got some exciting news about the year ahead.
We got a look at Intel’s first batch of 12th Gen laptop CPUs, which will start showing up in laptops later this year. Intel claims the leading chips in this lineup can outperform Apple’s M1 Max, which is exactly what they need to do after Apple blew us away last year with the performance of the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips in its MacBook Pro 2021.
Intel’s cutting-edge chips should help deliver unprecedented performance in Windows laptops shipping this year, and we got a preview of what that will look like at CES 2022. From big, beefy gaming laptops like the Acer Predator Helios 300 to ultra-thin machines like the Asus ROG Flow Z13 and Dell XPS 13 Plus, there’s a lot of exciting hardware hitting stores this year.
