Windows 11 device partners display incredible innovations at CES 2024


  • Staff
CES is always an amazing event where our partners showcase their latest exciting Windows 11 PCs. Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Samsung and many gaming PC specialist partners held events to showcase their devices featuring cutting edge design, performance and experiences. AI featured prominently at the show and Windows PCs are leading the way with Microsoft Copilot for Windows 11.

Many of these PCs, through a new, recently announced built-in Copilot key, provide faster access to your everyday AI companion. AI can make the things you do every day on your PC easier and faster – from searching for answers, to summarizing emails to keep you in the flow at work, to experiencing optimized performance and efficiency during gaming sessions with AI-powered graphics cards.

Another key theme across the Windows 11 devices is around improving sustainability, from laptop chassis that contain touchpads made with ocean bound plastics to devices that ship in 100% recycled packaging.

We also saw our silicon partners continuing to innovate and break through barriers with new announcements at the show. NVIDIA unveiled an array of hardware and software aimed at unlocking the full potential of generative AI on Windows 11 PCs. From Intel, we saw their 14th Gen processors built for gamers, creatives and professionals, powering devices from thin and light laptops for mobile users to desktops used for compute-intensive workloads. AMD rolled out their AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT Graphics Card and expanded their desktop processor offerings with the Ryzen 8000G Series with powerful built-in graphics, as well as Ryzen AI to unlock more AI capabilities for consumers and improve productivity, efficiency and advanced collaboration.
