It’s been a rocky road to 10nm chips for Intel, but the company is finally starting to show off the first “Ice Lake” mobile chips based on a 10nm “Sunny Cove” architecture. During the company’s keynote at the Consumer Electronics Show, Intel provided a brief demo of a few Ice Lake computer prototypes from manufacturers […]

Intel’s mass production of 10nm chips slated for late 2019
The first laptops with 10nm Intel chips are already shipping… but so far they’re nothing to write home about. While the company has started producing a few processors based on the new “Cannon Lake” architecture, they seem to be low-power, low-performance chips that offer little to no benefit over the company’s existing 14nm processors. That […]
Intel’s 10nm Core m3-8114Y and Core i3-8121U Cannon Lake chips coming soon
Intel’s first 10nm chips based on the company’s new Cannon Lake architecture are on the way. Just a few days after we spotted a Lenovo IdeaPad 330 processor with a Core i3-8121U Cannon Lake processor, Intel has added detailed specifications for the processor to its website. Now details for another announced Cannon Lake chip have leaked: […]
Lenovo laptop with 10nm Intel Cannon Lake CPU launches (in China)
Intel may not expect to ramp up mass production of its 10nm processors until 2019, but the company says some of its first 10nm chips are already shipping… and it looks like Lenovo is already taking orders for one of the first laptops to feature an 8th-gen Intel Core processor based on the new 10nm […]
Intel delays mass production of 10nm chips until 2019
As suspected, Intel is having a hard time ramping up production of 10nm processors, which means the company is going to be delaying mass production… again. The company had initially hoped to start shipping 10nm chips in large volumes in 2015, but that date has been pushed back several times and now the earliest we […]
Intel’s first 10nm chips coming in 2017 (in small quantities)
Intel is finally getting ready to launch its first chips manufactured on a 10nm process. The company had planned to move to 10nm in 2016, but a series of setbacks have prevented that from happening. That led to Intel basically blowing up its usual “tick tock” release schedule and sticking with 14nm for the past […]
Intel’s first 10nm+ chips will be based on Ice Lake architecture
When Intel takes the wraps of its 8th-gen Core processors next week, the company will be launching its 4th generation of chips to manufactured using a 14nm process. But it looks like Intel is almost ready to make the move to 10nm. A page on the Intel website reveals that the “successor to the 8th […]
First signs of an Intel Cannonlake-powered Chromebook
Intel is set to launch its first 10nm chips based on a new “Cannonlake” architecture in late 2017 or early 2018. But we already know that there are some folks testing early versions of the chips, thanks to leaked benchmark results. And it looks like at least one Chromebook (or maybe Chromebox) with a Cannonlake […]
Intel: Not all 10nm chips are equal (and ours are better than yours)
Samsung and Qualcomm may be some of the first chip makers to bring 10nm processors to market, but Intel wants you to know that not all chips built using a 10nm process are the same… and that its upcoming 10nm chips will be “a full generation ahead” of the competition. Basically the idea is that a […]
Samsung unveils 10nm Exynos 9 series chip (for Galaxy S8)
Samsung’s first chip manufactured using a 10nm FinFET process is coming soon. The Samsung Exynos 9 Series 8895 processor is an octa-core chip that will likely be used in some models of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S8 smartphone, although the US version of the phone is expected to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chip. The company […]
