Processors - Mobile

Mobile processors are the brain of your notebook, 2-in-1 laptop or mini PC. They combine advanced functionalities with energy efficiency to prolong your device's battery life. Choosing the right processor can make a big difference, allowing you to enjoy faster performance, superior reliability and built-in security features.

Mobile Processors Are Extra Compact and Allow Better Airflow

Unlike desktop processors, mobile processors power portable devices such as laptops, tablets or smartphones. They tend to generate less heat inside the computer case. Most mobile CPUs also consume little power, so your laptop or tablet will have a longer battery life. Mobile CPUs work well even with fanless cooling systems.

Multi-core Processors Make Small Laptops Powerful 

Multi-core processors offer extra performance. Each core is a processing unit on the processor chip; for example, a single-core processor has one processing unit. The operating system sees the cores as separate CPUs, so each one of them can perform a different task. A dual-core processor can perform two tasks at the same time, a quad-core processor can perform four tasks at the same time, and so on. Since all the cores are on a single chip, a multi-core configuration doesn't affect the size of the mobile processor. This is particularly useful in smaller computer cases, where saving space is of paramount importance. The cores can communicate with each other fast to reduce latency, not a feature of server processors. Two types of multi-core mobile CPUs are dual-core and quad-core.

Entry-level Processors Offer Gigabit Internet Support and Built-in Security Features

You can choose the latest Intel® Pentium® Silver and Celeron® mobile processors for entry-level notebooks and all-in-one laptops. These mobile processors work to prolong battery life, and they support Gigabit Wi-Fi so that you can surf the internet faster than ever before. These entry-level processors have built-in security features to help you keep your data safe. Intel Pentium Silver and Celeron CPUs support Windows®, Linux® and Chrome OS™. With their optimized memory options, they offer fast data transfers. The Intel Celeron and Pentium Silver platforms allow enjoying 4K content, even in ultra high definition (UHD). They also offer native DRM support, which makes them particularly suitable for entertainment PCs. Celeron and Pentium Silver processors support the local adaptive contrast enhancement (LACE) technology, to improve the visibility of your computer screen outdoors, even in the sunlight.

Mobile Processors Come With Built-in Smart Features

10th generation Intel Core™ mobile processors offer outstanding performance while meeting the needs of the smallest devices. Some models feature the Intel Iris® Plus processor graphics card to stream quality 4K video content, or play 1080p games with high frame rates. These processors have built-in smart features that handle AI software. This way, the PC learns your behavior and is capable of changing some settings accordingly. These processors offer long battery life and Thunderbolt™ 3 support, so your device will be future-proof. With Intel Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+), you'll be able to download your favorite content faster.
