AMD's next mobile chip lineup, called Medusa Point, just leaked with details showing Zen 6 cores and two power configs at 28 watts and 45 watts. The platform aims to replace Strix and Hawk Point with better efficiency across ultraportables and beefier laptops that can handle more heat.
The 28-watt version targets thin devices where battery matters most, while the 45-watt class goes into bigger notebooks with stronger cooling systems. Both share the same architecture, which gives laptop makers room to tweak performance without dealing with totally different chip families.
Graphics should get an upgrade with better compute blocks and memory handling, plus there's talk of enhanced AI hardware for on-device processing that won't slam the CPU. AMD seems to be setting up a unified mobile platform that can stretch across different notebook types heading into 2026.
