Lenovo has launched two new IdeaPad Slim 5 laptops, one with a 15.3-inch display and the other with a 13.3-inch screen. While the company have also introduced AMD Strix Point laptops at IFA 2024, these two feature Ryzen 7000 series APUs.

More lightweight and efficient than ever before: This is the promise of the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 13 Aura Edition. With just 980 g starting weight, it is the most lightweight ThinkPad laptop at the moment and the lightest 14 inch ThinkPad ever made. Intel Core Ultra series 2, also known as Lunar Lake, is supposed to make it one of the most long-lasting ones at the same time.

The Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 is already on the market, though until now only with the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite. Three months after the AMD version, Lenovo follows up with the AMD variant - the first ThinkPad laptop with AMD Ryzen AI, also known as Strix Point.

Announced back in Computex, Asus has now fully detailed its new ExpertBook P5. It's among the first business laptops with Intel Lunar Lake, and the laptop features Intel Core Ultra 7 258V, up to 32 GB of RAM, a 14-inch QHD display, and Copilot+ PC support.

Acer has unveiled a bunch of Intel Lunar Lake laptops today, and one of them is the new Swift 14 AI. Available with four Intel Core Ultra 200 series processors, the new laptop meets the Copilot+ PC program, making it one of the slimmest options that support Microsoft's new AI features.

Acer has refreshed the TravelMate P6 14 AI with Intel Core Ultra 200V series processors. The new Lunar Lake laptop weighs under 0.99 kg, making it one of the lightest laptops in the Copilot+ PC program. It can be equipped with up to Intel Core Ultra 7 268V.

Efficiency, efficiency, efficiency: Intel's focus with the new Core Ultra 200V chips was clear. But even when it comes to performance, the new Core Ultra Series 2 CPUs will trump the previous Meteor Lake U chips. Shortly before IFA 2024 begins, Intel has unveiled the last outstanding specs of the new CPU series, including the Lunar Lake SKU table.

A new leak has shed light on Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Book 5 Pro 360 laptop. As expected, it features Intel's new Lunar Lake CPU with 16 GB of on-package RAM, an AMOLED screen, and a paltry 512 GB of on-board storage. Update: Samsung has officially announced the laptop
