Copilot+ devices with new AMD and Intel processors launching in November

Microsoft’s Copilot+ notebooks with AMD and Intel processors launch in November, offering powerful AI features and long battery life.

Microsoft has announced that its Copilot+ AI notebooks, which rely solely on Qualcomm processors, will also be powered by AMD and Intel chips. Starting in November, notebooks featuring the AMD Ryzen AI 300 and Intel Core Ultra 200V processors will be available, bringing new capabilities to users.

This news comes after Intel introduced its Core Ultra Series 2 processors, including the Core Ultra 200V, during an event held before IFA 2024 in Berlin. These processors and AMD chips promise to deliver advanced performance, especially in artificial intelligence (AI) tasks.

Advanced AI performance and extended battery life

Microsoft previously highlighted the impressive AI capabilities of Copilot+ devices. According to the company, these notebooks can process over 40 trillion operations per second (TOPS) while maintaining long battery life, and they can access the latest AI models processed directly on the device.

AMD has boasted that its Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 and Ryzen AI 9 365 processors will deliver even higher performance, with up to 50 TOPS for AI operations. On the other hand, Intel’s Lunar Lake processors are expected to offer more than 40 TOPS for AI processing and an additional 60 TOPS for GPU performance, combining to deliver over 100 TOPS.

When it comes to battery life, top brands such as Acer, ASUS, and Dell claim that their Copilot+ devices will support continuous video playback for around 25 to 27 hours. This ensures that users enjoy powerful AI capabilities without worrying about frequently charging their devices.

One such device is the LG Gramme 16 Pro, which will feature the Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processor. According to LG, this model will support up to 48 TOPS for AI tasks and up to 67 TOPS for GPU operations, making it one of the most advanced options on the market.

AI features to roll out in November

Microsoft has confirmed that devices powered by eligible AMD and Intel processors will receive new AI features in November. These updates will be delivered through free Windows updates, although the timing and availability of these features will depend on the device and region.

Among the new features that will be available are:

  • Live Captions with translation – Enabling real-time captioning with language translation.
  • Windows Studio Effects – Including background blur, portrait mode, eye contact, and automatic framing to enhance video calls.
  • Cocreator in Paint – Adding advanced editing tools to Microsoft Paint.
  • Photos: Restyle image and Image Creator – Allowing users to modify and create images using AI easily.

Microsoft has also revealed that its new Recall AI feature will be available to its Windows Insider Community in October before rolling out to all users later. This feature aims to provide enhanced memory and recall functionality using AI.

As November approaches, consumers can look forward to the next wave of Copilot+ devices powered by AMD and Intel, which will bring enhanced AI capabilities and extended battery life to a wider range of users.
