Laptop trends 2024 - 2025: High performance in thin and light design

 

The year 2024 - 2025 will witness an explosion of a series of new technology trends. In particular, it must be mentioned the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance thin and light design to meet the increasingly demanding needs of users.

Rise to the throne: Don'tworry about office laptops

If in the past, thin and light laptops were usually only associated with office machines, now this trend has spread to both gaming and high-performance laptops. Users now not only require powerful performance but also want to own a compact laptop that is easy to carry with them.

ASUS TUF Gaming A14 (2024) is super powerful with a weight of less than 1.5kg (sourced from AMD)

The market witnessed the launch of many impressive laptop models, balancing performance and size. The ASUS TUF Gaming A14 (2024) is an example. With a weight of less than 1.5kg, this laptop possesses extremely impressive performance with an AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370 processor with 12 cores 24 threads and an RTX 4060 discrete GPU that meets all work and entertainment needs well.

If you need to be even thinner and lighter, ASUS Vivobook S 14 (M5406) will not disappoint users with a weight of only 1.3kg but still possesses super strong performance with Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370. Although there is no discrete GPU, this laptop still responds well to many games thanks to the AMD Radeon™ 890M integrated graphics.

Another extremely impressive gaming laptop model that can also be mentioned is the MSI Stealth A16 AI. Possessing super strong performance with AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370 combined with RTX 4070 GPU and 16-inch 16:10 screen, but the weight of the device is only 2.1kg, less than 2cm thick.

I don't think you can use it to put it on the line.

Besides the slim and lightweight design, users are also particularly interested in factors such as heat dissipation, battery life, and the versatility of the laptop. These factors used to be difficult to go together, a high-performance laptop is difficult to be thin, light, cool and have a long battery.

However, at the present time, laptop manufacturers have made efforts to improve heat dissipation efficiency and enhance power by using energy-efficient high-performance processors such as AMD Ryzen™ AI, advanced heat dissipation materials, intelligent fan system design, and optimized airflow.

Many software with built-in AI (sourced from AMD)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is also fully utilized by manufacturers to help improve the user experience. Currently, AI on laptops has been comprehensively supported from hardware (processor) to software (Windows and popular software) to help save time and support efficient work.

The versatility of laptops is of particular interest. Users need more and more on a laptop, for example, doing office work, entertainment, and creating content, but still do not accept to sacrifice size and weight factors.

Playing an important role in opening the new laptop trend are the latest AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 processors. AMD's latest line of processors for laptops offers outstanding advantages such as extremely powerful performance and energy efficiency, while ensuring compatibility with millions of existing computer software.

AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 owns up to 12 cores with 24 threads

The AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 owns up to 12 cores, including 4 high-performance Zen 5 cores and 8 energy-efficient Zen 5c cores. Interestingly, both the Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores support hyper-threading for a total of 24 threads.

Combined with manufacturing on the 4nm process, the AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 processor balances performance and energy efficiency. Besides, this processor also has outstanding integrated graphics that can meet even AAA games at the right settings.

AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 processor series brings a series of advantages to laptops

AMD is also a pioneer manufacturer to integrate AI processing cores (NPUs) into processors from 2023 with the Ryzen™ 7000 series. Undergoing numerous upgrades and improvements, the AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 is now one of the most powerful processors with NPUs on the market with a maximum power of up to 55 TOPS.

AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 processors have a very wide TDP range (15 - 54W), support a maximum RAM capacity of up to 256GB, so manufacturers can flexibly use these processors for both ultra-thin and light laptops to high-performance gaming lines.

In general, the trend of thin, light, high-performance, AI-integrated laptops is predicted to continue to grow strongly in the coming years. The AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 (and its successors) is one of the key factors in that trend.

NVIDIA introduces new AI supercomputer, super compact, "student" price - as cheap as an office laptop but extremely useful

Image
  With its super cheap price, this AI supercomputer from NVIDIA is especially suitable for AI research enthusiasts with limited finances, such as students or small companies. NVIDIA recently introduced the Jetson Orin Nano Super development kit, the successor to the Jetson Orin Nano kit from 2022. This compact AI supercomputer can fit in the palm of your hand, including an 8GB Jetson Orin Nano system module and a reference board. In terms of performance, the Jetson Orin Nano Super achieves 68 trillion operations per second (TOPS), a 70% increase over the previous generation. NVIDIA also claims a 1.7x improvement in generative AI inference performance and a 50% increase in bandwidth, reaching 102GB per second. The CPU frequency is now 1.7GHz, a modest increase from the previous generation's 1.5GHz. IA claims that Jetson Orin Nano Super benefits all common generative AI models, including large language models (LLMs), visual language models, and vision converters. Jetson Orin Nano Sup...

Experience with the Cooler Master Storm game controller: Comfortable grip, battery life up to 40 hours, but there's one unfortunate drawback.

Image
 This is a good gaming solution for Windows, Mac computers, or mobile devices like Android, iOS, iPad, but it will be difficult to use with PS5! Mouse and keyboard are considered the most optimal accessories for gaming, but there are still gamers who highly value the experience of playing with a controller, similar to console gaming. That's why gaming brands continue to release new controllers, including Cooler Master with the Storm Controller we have here. The controller is packaged in a small cardboard box and is quite attractively decorated. Inside the box, besides the controller, we have a user manual and a USB-C to USB-A cable. This controller comes in two color versions: Black - Purple and White - Purple, which we have here. This color scheme reminds me of the character Frieza from the Dragon Ball series! In terms of design, the Cooler Master Storm has a shape closer to the Xbox controller than the PlayStation 5 - slightly rounded and 'chubby'. This design feels comfo...

Experience with AirPods Pro 2 USB-C: The upgrade may seem small, but it's the most valuable one yet.

Image
 Launched at the Wonderlust event, the new generation of AirPods Pro may have received less attention, partly because they were overshadowed by the "glow" of the iPhone 15 and Apple Watch 9/Watch Ultra 2, or perhaps because people think that just changing the charging port to USB-C is really not enough However, just one day after this event, I was fortunate enough to be invited to try out the new version and found that it deserves more recognition, especially the new features on firmware 6A301 (only usable when upgrading to iOS 17, which of course had not been released at that time). Adaptive Audio and Conversation Awareness - features I've been waiting for a long time After three generations of regular AirPods, Apple released the Pro version in 2019 with active noise cancellation (ANC). This was considered a significant advancement in Apple's "music playing" system, allowing it to compete with other market rivals. Moving on to the second generation of the P...
