On April 18, 2026, Intel discreetly rolled out a novel mobile processor, namely the Core 7 245HX. The most remarkable feature of this processor is its lack of the Core Ultra branding, which renders it the inaugural non-Ultra offering within the Arrow Lake-HX series. It boasts a 14-core, 14-thread setup, comprising 6 performance cores and 8 efficiency cores. It can reach a maximum boost frequency of 5.1GHz, and is equipped with 24MB of cache. Regarding power consumption, it has a base consumption of 55W and a maximum turbo consumption of 160W. Its integrated graphics are powered by 3 Xe cores, with a maximum frequency of 1.8GHz. Additionally, it delivers an NPU computing power of 13 TOPS. Strikingly, these specifications are an exact match for those of the already-released Core Ultra 5 235HX. It's noteworthy that Intel's product lineup already includes a Core Ultra 5 245HX, which, despite sharing the same model number, differs in its specifications.
