If you’re in the market for a new laptop, then buying one during this festive season makes total sense. However, with so many different options available in the market, how will you make the right call? Well, the easiest thing to do is buy a laptop that is Intel® Evo™ certified to ensure a superior user experience.
If you are unfamiliar, Intel® Evo™ is a new standard introduced by Intel® and it is designed with the consumer in mind. It is a platform that is co-engineered with laptop manufacturers to offer the best-in-class hardware with a range of features. This includes impressive performance, lightning-fast responsiveness, long battery life, instant wake, and fast charging. All this needs to be packaged inside an appealing thin and light build that looks the part of a premium device.
The Intel® Evo™ platform got its start in 2020 with the ‘Tiger Lake’ lineup of processors and with the new 13th Gen Intel® Core™ ‘Raptor Lake’ processors, the platform is better than ever. Here’s a look at what makes an Intel® Evo™ the perfect choice this festive season.
Next level performance
As we mentioned earlier, Intel® Evo™ laptops need to offer a certain level of performance in order to even be eligible. With the latest iteration of the Intel® Evo™ platform, you get the 13th Gen Intel® Core™ series of mobile processors. Notably, the Intel® Core™ i5 and Core™ i7 mobile processors. These features the Performance Hybrid Architecture that combines up to 14 Performance Cores (P-Cores) with Efficiency Cores (E-Cores). The P-Cores are designed to take on resource-intensive tasks such as gaming, photo and video editing apps and more. Meanwhile, the E-Cores are responsible for multi-threaded workloads and background tasks. The Intel® Thread Director ensures optimised workloads by intelligently distributing them to the right set of cores.
Unify your world with Intel® Unison™
Your smartphone and laptop are indispensable parts of your modern life. Now imagine if both of these would effortlessly work together in perfect synchronisation. With an Intel® Evo™ laptop and Windows 11, this is made possible. Called Intel® Unison™, the feature allows you to receive messages, notifications and even phone calls directly on your laptop. Not just that, but you can also share files and photos instantly between the two devices with the click of a button. Intel® Unison™ is compatible with Android and iOS, catering to the universe of smartphones.
Longer battery life with fast charging
When it comes to laptops, battery life is key. After all, what is the point of laptops if you’ll have to keep them plugged in all the time? The latest generation of Intel® Evo™ laptops has a battery life of at least 9.5+ hours. So you can get more done on the go. But what if you need to head out and get some work done on the way, but the battery is low? Thankfully all Intel® Evo™ laptops offer fast charging.

Not only that, but you won’t even have waste time to typing in your PIN or password as these laptops can use biometric login via fingerprint or face recognition. In fact, the laptop will even unlock once it recognises your phone nearby!
Super fast connectivity
The focus on speed carries over to connectivity. The latest generation of Intel® Evo™ laptops offers Intel® Wi-FI 6E (Gig+) connectivity with support for 6GHz.
