Intel Shows Tiny PCs With Surprising Graphics Power

We just visited the Intel booth at CES and saw some laptops and tablets that are packing a serious punch.

Stroll around the booth with us as we take a close look at the array of laptops and tablets Intel is showing off, as the company touts the benefits of its latest processors inside. Some are running Windows, and others run Android. Don’t be fooled by the diminutive size of these devices; many are small enough to fit into a coat pocket.

Stay tuned, because we have video on the way. Meanwhile, here’s a gallery with the coolest examples Intel had on display, complete with descriptions of each:
