Thunderobot is well known in the Chinese market and in recent years seems to be determined to make its way worldwide with products that stand out from the usual ones. At CES 2026, Thunderobot officially unveiled its ZERO Air gaming laptop series, something the company had already teased in the weeks leading up to the show. The new lineup focuses on thin-and-light gaming systems built around Intel Core Ultra Series 3 "Panther Lake" processors and NVIDIA RTX 50 Laptop GPUs. Measuring just 15.9 mm thick and weighing around 1.58 kg, the ZERO Air is clearly a lightweight gaming laptop. It is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 9 386H (16-core, 16-thread) CPU with boost clocks up to 4.9 GHz. For graphics, it sports the GeForce RTX 5070 GPU. As for cooling, it features a dual-fan cooling system and a vapor chamber. The laptop has a 15.3-inch QHD+ OLED display with a 165 Hz refresh rate. Memory support goes up to 32 GB of DDR5, alongside dual PCIe Gen 4 SSD slots for storage expansion.
Alongside the ZERO Air, Thunderobot also showed the ZERO 18 Pro, its high-end flagship model. This larger system uses Intel Core Ultra HX Series processors and can be configured with up to a GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU. It features an 18-inch QHD display running at 240 Hz, supports up to 64 GB of DDR5 memory, PCIe Gen 5 storage up to 2 TB, and includes RGB lighting and a 99 Wh battery. More pictures follow.
