Intel is taking advantage of the arrival of the next generation of Meteor Lake processors to put the “i” of Core iX aside. The current nomenclature will be replaced by two new names: Intel Core and Intel Core Ultra.

After 15 years of good and loyal service, the “Core i” nomenclature will give way to two new names, the Intel Core and Intel Core Ultra. The founder believes that the switch to the Meteor Lake architecture, which introduces tiles with its Foveros process and the new Intel 4 (7 nm) engraving fineness, is the ideal time to change the nomenclature so that users can clearly distinguish the break with old architectures. At the same time, Intel will no longer communicate on the generations of its processors at the marketing level. So end the “Laptops equipped with the 13th generation of Intel processor” in advertisements or other brand communications.
No longer say Core i5, but Core 5
Concretely, the Core i3/5/7/9 will become the Core 3/5/7 and Core Ultra 5/7/9. However, Intel has not specified the characteristics necessary for a processor to be labeled “Core” rather than “Core Ultra”.
Possible example: Intel Core 5 processor ##xx. The ## would be a priori a generation number which could be 14 in the case of the Meteor Lake architecture. However, Intel does not rule out starting from 1 in order to truly mark the occasion. The xx would be basic numbers like the 900 of the Core i9-13900K.
Another point that requires clarification: the suffixes -K or -F of desktop processors, or -U, -P, -H and -HX of mobile versions are not mentioned. We therefore do not know if they will be maintained and, contacted, the founder did not wish to say more.

Last modification which only concerns laptops, the Intel Evo certification becomes Intel Evo Edition. Remember that the Intel Evo models meet the founder’s specifications, ensuring, among other things, performance and autonomy.
The introduction of this new nomenclature will occur with the arrival of 14th generation Intel Core processors, codenamed Meteor Lake, which should take place before 2024.
