Intel Shipped "Panther Lake" Processors to Samsung for Galaxy Book Laptops

According to the NBD shipment manifests, Intel has shipped its upcoming "Panther Lake" processor family to Samsung for its Galaxy Book laptops as early as May this year. This indicates that the final integration of Intel's latest design is complete and that Samsung has already incorporated these processors into its Galaxy Book line. The leaked shipping manifests show a BGA2540 processor, which corresponds to Panther Lake and is described as an integrated chip for a Samsung laptop. This confirms that the Galaxy Book is set to receive a Panther Lake update. However, the specific SKUs that will power the Samsung Galaxy Book laptops remain unknown for now.

The low-power PTL-U models are designed for a 15 W TDP and are expected to come in 6-core and 8-core versions. Some SKUs will feature four high-performance P-cores paired with four LPE-cores, while others will have only two LPE-cores complimenting four P-cores. Both families will utilize Xe3-based integrated graphics, with entry models featuring four GPU cores. The more powerful PTL-H line will scale up to around 16 CPU cores, comprising four P-Cores, eight E-cores, and four LPE-cores. Some H-series parts might include up to 12 GPU cores for integrated graphics, but the final configurations will be revealed when Intel officially launches the Panther Lake product family. At IFA 2025 in Berlin, Acer was the only OEM to showcase a Panther Lake-powered laptop, the Swift 16 AI . We will have to wait for Samsung's official announcement to learn more about the remaining specifications, such as SKU choices, screen, memory, and storage configurations.
