Intel has today launched its Core Series 3 mobile processors, confirming the official branding for the silicon tracked under the Wildcat Lake codename since late 2024.

The lineup covers six consumer SKUs plus an edge-only variant, all fabbed on Intel 18A, with more than 70 laptop designs scheduled from Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, MSI, Samsung, and others through the rest of 2026. Intel is positioning this family as the value-segment counterpart to Panther Lake, which shipped as Core Ultra Series 3 following its debut at CES in January.
