CNET has a sneak peek at some of the biggest PC announcements at CES 2025 in Las Vegas.
CES is right around the corner, and Dell, Lenovo, Asus, and HP are all making announcements at the massive electronics show in Las Vegas, but ahead of the show, we got a sneak peek at their 2025 laptops and desktops in New York, This includes their gaming brands. So let’s see what happens next for them. Before I get into that, keep in mind that we saw all of this before CES even kicked off, so it’s likely that these PC makers and others will make announcements at the show that we didn’t see. Again, these aren’t in-depth studies, and pricing and availability aren’t specific, but we wanted to give you an overview of what’s coming this year. So I’m starting to work with Dell, and oddly enough, its biggest announcement isn’t a product, it’s a name change. Dell is dropping its PC product line names. Like the XPS Insperon, Latitude and Precision are straightforward names: Dell for consumer models, Dell Pro for business productivity, and Dell Pro Max for high-performance business systems and workstations. There are premium models and premium models among them. For example, if you’re familiar with Dell’s high-end XPS line, the 14-inch laptop in that line will now be called the Dell 14 Premium. You can deduce. Since then, Dell did release a few new Pro and Pro Max business laptops as well as some newer Insperons, now simply called Dell or Dell Plus, which will appear over the next few months. On the Alienware side, it’s even more exciting. It also changed its PC naming, returning to the Area 51 brand, and launched a new full-size tower with the latest Nvidia graphics cards, up to Intel Core Ultra 9 285. KCPU as well as 16- and 18-inch laptops, which will also come with the latest Nvidia graphics cards up to the Intel Core Ultra 9 275 HX CPU. They are expected to launch sometime in the first quarter. Turning to Lenovo, most of its computer releases have been simple updates. For example, Lenovo’s dual-display laptop, the Yoga Book 9 I, now features a larger 14-inch OLED display (up from 13.3 inches), a sturdier stand, and the latest Intel Core Ultra 7 processors. The premium Yoga 9 I 2 and 1 also get a processor update and it’s an aura version, which basically means it’s AIPC and has some smarter software and premium support. Then there’s the new Yoga Slim 9 I, a high-end 14-inch laptop that, like the other two, sports a dazzling new glass finish on the lid. The latest core Ultra chip. Lenovo also announced 4 new tablets, starting with the universal 10-inch Lenovo tablet. Then there’s the higher-end 12.7-inch Idea Tab Pro, which gives you a better entertainment and productivity experience, and the even more creative 12.7-inch Yoga Tab Plus. Rounding out the tablets is the Legion tab, an 8.8-inch tablet powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, 12 GB of RAM, 256 GB of storage, all built around an 8.8-inch 2.5k display (165 Hz refresh rate). There’s also a new Legion gaming laptop, the Legion Pro 7i, which is a 16-inch laptop with up to Intel Core Ultra 9, NextGen Nvidia graphics, and some really nice lighting around the rear vents on the front. Next up is HP and some new AI-powered PCs for consumers. On the business side, we’ll be focusing on consumer PCs in this video, such as the HP Omni Studio X all-in-one desktop and the new Omni desktop tower. HP has made some great all-around products in the past, and the OmniStudio X looks set to continue that momentum. It’s available in 27-inch and 31.5-inch sizes and comes with an Intel Core Super Processor, up to 32 GB of memory, and Intel Art graphics. The new omnidirectional desk towers feature a beautiful wood finish on the front so they look more like furniture and offer a host of configuration options, including discrete graphics and video graphics. For gaming, the new Oman Max 16 laptop comes with AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 or Intel Core Ultra 9275 HX processor. NextGen video graphics, 64 GB of RAM and 2 TB of storage. There are 3 display options, including 2.5K OLED with variable refresh rate from 48 to 240 Hz. HP also showed off a compact 16L Oman gaming tower with an Intel or AMD CPU and GPU, up to an AMD Radeon RX 7600 or. Nvidia RTX 4060 TI. Finally, let’s see what Aus brings to the table. Mainly a bunch of Vivo laptops in a wide range of configurations, with Intel, AMD and Q Qualcomm processors in 14-inch and 16-inch sizes, and in plastic or a mix of plastic and metal. corpse. What’s available varies by region, but if you want ASU’s mid-range AIPC, you’ll have plenty to choose from this year. The most interesting consumer laptop they have released is the Zenbook A14, a 14-inch OLED Co-Drive+ PC that weighs less than 1kg and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon X processor. The body is made from the company’s Aluminum, a metal with a smooth, ceramic-like surface. On the ROG side, Asus has essentially refreshed its main lines, the Zephyrus, strix, and strict scrap, with new processors, graphics cards, and cooling, as well as updated lighting. The Strix and Strict Scars will come in 16- and 18-inch sizes, featuring next-generation Intel C. GPUs and better cooling in Nvidia GPUs. In fact, everything has a better cooling effect. Zephyrus will be available in 14-inch and 16-inch models, and will be a co-driver and PC running the latest AMD chips with Nvidia graphics. Then there’s the return of the company’s gaming tablet, the Flow Z13. It’s been completely redesigned and built around an AMD Strix Halo chip and a 13.4-inch 2.5k touchscreen. It also comes with a new Thunderbolt XG mobile external GPU with next-generation Nvidia graphics. The highlight is the G700, an Intel-based gaming desktop designed and built by Republic of Gamers. It’s a whirlwind tour of the many PCs announced at CES 2025. If you want more details about these products, head to CNET.com to read all about them. Well at the moment I don’t really have an idea of what is best, there are a lot of interesting options and to me Aus looks to have the strongest hand in the game right now. I know the video isn’t specific, but I’d still like to know what you think, so let me know in the comments. Thank you for watching. Happy New Year and when you see me, you will see me.
