What to expect from Intel at CES 2026
Core Ultra Series 3 (Panther Lake)
The main highlight of the event will be the official presentation of the processors Intel Core Ultra Series 3which use lithography 18Aone of the company’s most ambitious bets in recent years. The new line is aimed at:
- High-performance notebooks
- PCs gamer
- Devices ready for advanced local AI tasks
Intel should reinforce gains in energy efficiency, performance per watt and dedicated acceleration for artificial intelligence workloads.
New generation of PCs with AI
The company has already confirmed that the event will highlight “the next generation of Intel-powered PCs”, with a focus on embedded AI experiencesboth for consumers and for corporate and edge computing applications.
Production and challenges of the 18A process
One of the most anticipated points is whether Intel will address recent market concerns about RENDIMENT (YIELD) of process 18A. Previous reports indicated rates below 50%, something the company acknowledged but said it was on a positive trajectory. CES 2026 could be the stage for more concrete updates on Panther Lake’s industrial maturity and commercial viability.
A defining moment for Intel
Intel’s presentation takes place in a scenario of strong competitive pressure. In recent years, companies like TSMC, AMD, Qualcomm e NVIDIA have advanced in key areas such as chip manufacturing and AI hardware.
Despite having recovered part of its market value recently, Intel still seeks to demonstrate that it can compete on equal terms in cutting-edge technology — and Panther Lake is central to this narrative.
Expectations for partnerships and next steps
Although an announcement regarding the manufacturing of chips for the company’s products is not expected, Applethe event could bring signals about strategic partnerships, including recent collaborations involving NVIDIA and the United States government. Any news in this sense tends to gain great repercussion during CES.
