**Intel's CES Suite: Showcasing Thin PCs with Android and Chrome OS Capabilities**

For the first time in a while, Intel has what they feel is a clear and solid lead in the tablet space. They're showing off some pretty crazy stuff at CES, including their Core M5-700Y processor, which is based on Broadwell technology and turbo boost up to 2.6 GHz. The kinds of use cases that Intel wants to show off with their tablet mark are going to be your typical tablet things - adding filters to a photo, web browsing, video playback, etc.

Intel's showing off the Core M5-700Y processor in a core i7-based chip, which is designed for ultra-thin PCs. These devices have screens on one side and backings on the other, with limited I/O ports. Intel refers to these as "tablets," although they're actually extremely thin PCs. The company wants to demonstrate their position in the tablet space and show that they can compete with established players.

One of the examples being shown is a consortium benchmark, which involves a group of large companies working together to validate performance on their side, while also providing feedback for consumers. This is an important step for Intel, as it shows that they're serious about competing in this space. The consortium is made up of companies like Apple, Samsung, and Lenovo, all of whom are trying to make sure that their products meet certain standards.

Intel is also showing off a new benchmarking tool called Cr Expert, which allows them to compare their Windows PCs with screens on one side to Android and Chrome OS tablets. This is the first time we've seen a way to quantify which Chromebook is the best and gives you the best battery life. The Cr Expert benchmark is an open standard, developed by Intel in collaboration with other companies.

This new benchmarking tool is designed to give consumers a better understanding of what to look for when buying a Chromebook. It's not just about web browsing performance - it's also about battery life and overall system responsiveness. With this tool, users can get a more accurate picture of which Chromebook is right for them.

Intel is working closely with other companies to develop new content and benchmarks, including one called "Skull Trail." However, the author seems to be confusing Skull Trail with another product, and the details about it are unclear. Nevertheless, Intel's CES suite is showcasing some exciting new technology that could revolutionize the way we think about thin PCs.

One of the biggest advantages of these ultra-thin PCs is their portability. They're designed for on-the-go use, and they can fit into a backpack or purse with ease. This makes them perfect for students, travelers, and anyone who needs a lightweight computing solution. With Intel's CES suite, we can expect to see more devices like this in the future.

**A Look at Some of the Devices on Display**

One device that caught our eye is the Core M5-700Y processor-based PC. This device has a screen on one side and backing on the other, with limited I/O ports. It's an interesting design choice, but it shows just how far Intel is pushing the boundaries of what's possible in terms of thin PCs.

Another device being shown is a Chrome OS-powered PC with a 13-inch screen. This device has a sleek design and is designed for everyday use - web browsing, email, and office work. It's an attractive option for anyone looking for a lightweight Chromebook that can keep up with their daily tasks.

**The Future of Thin PCs**

Intel's CES suite is showcasing some exciting new technology that could revolutionize the way we think about thin PCs. With their Core M5-700Y processor and Cr Expert benchmarking tool, they're providing consumers with a more accurate picture of what to look for when buying a Chromebook or tablet.

As Intel continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in terms of thin PCs, we can expect to see even more innovative designs and features in the future. With their partnership with other companies like Phantom Glass and HyperX, Intel is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend and become a leader in the market for ultra-thin PCs.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enlinus tech tips coverage of ces 2015 is brought to you by phantom glass visit store.phantom.glass for the best darn screen protectors out there as well as hyperx all right so before we were so rudely interrupted there we were trying to start a video here in the intel pr suite now this is the first time i've ever actually managed to get in touch with intel's pr folks a uh an error that both sides are we're sort of quick to hug it out over and you know make up and we're going to work together moving forward in the future but the whole point of what they're showing here is the importance of benchmarks and not just benchmarks but benchmarks that can be validated and that can be trusted so there's three basic types of benchmarks in the world there's going to be your consortium benchmarks where there's a group of large companies that all work together to keep each other in check and make sure that everything is fair and balanced in the results there's going to be your open source benchmarks that are going to have communities behind them that are going to i mean sometimes maybe you've got to pay 20 bucks like the one that's over to my right there in order to have a peek at the source code make sure there's no tomfoolery we'll talk about that one in a minute then there's your closed benchmarks which often you'll have to pay an exorbitant fee in order to get access to the source code and poke at it so really there's no community moderation so the point of all this was they're showing off tablet mark why do they care about tablet mark well tablet marks from bapco and the reason they care about it is because for the first time in a while intel has what they feel is a clear and solid lead in the tablet excuse me sorry did i say tablet i meant pc space pcs that are extremely thin they have screens on one side backings on the other not a ton of i o okay i'm just going to call them tablets i'm sorry guys so they have a position in the tablet space that puts them in a well a very very strong position moving forward so here they're showing off some pretty crazy stuff this right here is a core m5y70 this is a broadwell-based chip that turbos up to 2.6 gigahertz so the kinds of use cases that they want to show off with tablet mark are going to be your typical tablet things so adding filters to a photo web browsing video playback stuff like that and this one in particular is a consortium benchmark so there's a group a large group of companies very large companies that are trying to make it so that well it's it's important for them to validate on their side but also so that consumers know what to look for when they're shopping for a tablet now moving over here we've got an example of this is a this is just an open completely open benchmark and this one's really different from that one in that it's called cr expert and unlike that one which is actually android ios and windows cross platform allowing us to finally actually know how the ipad compares to an android tablet compared to a windows tablet excuse me pc sorry did i say tablet again compared to a very slim windows pc with a screen on one side this one only runs on chrome os it does the same kind of stuff so it's going to run through your you know your typical web browsing look up your stock portfolio whatever else the case may be but the reason this one came about was because we didn't really have a way of knowing aside from i don't know like click refresh with like a stopwatch and see if you can figure out like how fast the page load we didn't really have a way to quantify well who makes the best chromebook and here they've got some solutions from you know intel and brand n or brand a actually they did they put labels right on it i guess it's because this is a press suite and not necessarily meant to have people running around in here videoing but the idea was to quantify well which chromebook actually is the best and gives you the best battery life after all and it's not an intel benchmark this is an open benchmark so so the point of working with these guys is it's gonna enable a new types of projects that we not couldn't necessarily tackle in the past so you guys have loved seeing stuff like our whole room liquid cooling thing well we've had a lot of people ask us for stuff like hey it's back to school i got to buy a notebook how do i determine which one's the best one well with with some assistance on streamlining the process we want to hear from you guys what type of content you want to see from us in terms of stuff that's more roundup oriented because we don't have a team of you know 16 people to run around and you know benchmark chromebooks all day so if these guys are pointing us in the right direction providing us with a bunch of stuff from intel we go and we find stuff from competitors we get some feedback from those guys as well make sure we're presenting the most balanced suite possible that gives us way i'm way more authoritative voice on this kind of what should you buy type content so leave comments on this video i will be checking them out let us know what you want us to benchmark particularly on the mobile side so guys thanks for watching this video on in the intel like pr suite that i've never been present for before they have so much cool stuff here guys don't
