discussion Intel Project Firefly

[moocow]

Per VCZ reporting, Intel Project Firefly is Intel's plan to push the budget Wildcat Lake laptop by boring China's mobile phone supply chain and knowledge to build the laptop. It smells like a Macbook Neo competitor but without an optimized OS, I don't know how well this will work.

• Phone derived components
• Smaller boards
• Standardized design
• Core 5 320, single channel LPDDR5X, 15W base, 35W max, 2 Xe-core for iGPU
  • Wildcat Lake laptops already released at $450 USD, 16GB DDR5 with 512GB storage

Interestingly, someone in the comment mentioned Intel Atom's push in China a decade ago (I had a Atom Cherrytrail tablet before).
