LAS VEGAS, 24 December 2024 – The annual Fair for Consumer Electronics (CES) is ready to showcase the first advances in the world of laptops, ​promising exciting advances in performance, design ​and functionality. As Tom’s Guide pointed out, the next CES ​2025 ​should show innovations ranging from AI-enhanced processors to unique factors such as roll-in and advanced portable game screens. These trends suggest that the mobile industry, far ​from ​being static, is preparing for another year of transformation.
Next-generation laptops and processors powered by AI
The emphasis on artificial intelligence capabilities in laptops continues to grow, ​but with moderate expectations. According to Tom’s guide, while ​the 2024 laptops with Snapdragon X Elite from ​Qualcomm brought ​exceptional ​battery life ​and performance, they were short of delivering the AI revolution. However, the CES 2025 should highlight new processors focused on impact assessment of industrial leaders such as Intel, AMD and Qualcomm. These chips promise to increase productivity and energy efficiency, ​offering functionality that is closely aligned with user ​needs ​rather than high AI ambitions.
A ​remarkable innovation is the AMD Strip Halo chip, which could offer performance ​comparable to a RTX ​4060 ​processor without a discrete graphics card. Such advances would ​not only increase performance, but would also ​extend the battery life, potentially more than 20 hours as shown by ​Snapdragon X Elite ​devices such as the Dell XPS 13. This ​change could redefine users’ expectations of laptops in work ​and entertainment settings.
Innovative factors: Rolling ​and double panels
Portable manufacturers also explore unique designs to ​differentiate their products. Lenovo’s mobile roll-in concept, presented at the ​Mobile ​World Congress (MWC), should make waves at CES 2025. According to Tom’s guide, the Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 prototype has a 12.7-inch screen that can be extended vertically on a 15.3-inch screen with an 8:9 look ratio. This ​design stacks two 16:9 screens, ​offering unprecedented versatility for ​multitasking and creative workflows.
Other form factors, such as folding and double reproducing laptops, are also likely to attract attention. Devices such as the Asus Zenbook Duo and HP Spectre Fold demonstrate the potential ​of ​such designs ​to increase productivity. ​The ​integration of innovative fit factors with powerful ​hardware and long-term batteries could define the next era of the laptop.
Game Laptops: Sleek and Customized Improved Designs
Game laptops are another segment prepared ​for significant improvements in CES ​2025. ​Tom’s ​Guide highlights the ​tendency to create gaming laptops with undervalued designs, ​such as ​HP Omen Transcend 14 ​and Asus Zephyrus G14. These machines combine high performance components with elegant aesthetics, for players who want a professional search device ​for work and play.
Customization will continue to ​be a ​key ​feature of gaming laptops, with better applications such as ​Legion Space and Oman ​Gaming Hub that ​offer better allocation of resources and RGB lighting controls. The rumor that the Nvidia RTX GPU 50 series is particularly exciting for players. These GPUs, with GDDR7 ​memory, ​promise up to 60% faster access to data ​and 20% less energy consumption ​than their predecessors. With options like the RTX ​5090 with 32 GB of GDDR7 memory, the next generation of ​gaming laptops could ​deliver unparalleled performance and efficiency.
Outlook for CES 2025 and beyond
With CES 2025 just a few days away, technology enthusiasts and industry trainees are eager to see how these forecasts are realized. According to Tom’s ​Guide, while some innovations can gradually build on existing technologies, others could push the limits of what laptops can achieve. From ​optimized processors ​for AI to unique ​designs ​and enhanced gaming capabilities, upcoming announcements ​have the potential to redefine the portable landscape.
As Tom’s Guide pointed out, the Tom Guide team will be at CES 2025 to provide direct coverage of these events. Whether through ​progressive updates or innovative innovations, the event ​promises to ​highlight ​the ​continuous evolution of laptops to meet the different ​needs of users. With advances in equipment, batteries ​and fitness factors, 2025 could be a historic year for ​portable technology.
As the event approaches, all eyes are ​at ​CES ​2025 to see if the latest announcements will match the figure and produce the transformation changes that industry and consumers anticipate.
