Intel announces NUC M15 Laptop, powered by its 11th gen processors

Intel has announced its NUC M15 Laptop Kit (originally code-named ‘Bishop County’), which will be a new addition to the whitebook market. The new laptop, which is designed in-house by Intel, will be powered by its 11th Gen Intel Core mobile processor (codenamed Tiger Lake). The announcement comes soon after Apple announced its own M1-powered laptops: the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro. But keep in mind: the Intel NUC M15 is not a laptop that can be purchased by customers directly.

This is part of the whitebook market, which means Intel will be offering this to its laptop partners and channel partners, who will re-brand, and then resell the laptop. Intel is setting the standards and specifications for what to expect in the laptop.
