One of the interesting things that Intel shared in its CES 2025 press release is the fact that the company is sending samples of its 'lead 18A product' — the codenamed Panther Lake processor for client computers — to its customers among PC makers. The company stressed that the CPUs will be mass-produced on the Intel 18A process technology in the second half of this year, which is good news for the company.
"Intel is only going to continue bolstering its AI PC product portfolio in 2025 and beyond as we sample our lead Intel 18A product to customers now ahead of volume production in the second half of 2025," a statement by Intel reads.
