Intel Core Ultra-Low Voltage microprocessors were tailored for laptops less than an inch (2.5 centimeters) thick and weighing as little as two pounds (0.9 kilograms).

“Consumers crave laptops that offer style and performance,” said Intel PC Client Group vice president Mooly Eden.

“Not only are laptops becoming ultra-portable, but with the new processors inside, users will see faster response times and less waiting.”

Intel said the processors also reduce power consumption, resulting in “great battery life.”
