Intel is deliberating on the future of hybrid. They are likely to double down on E-cores to include at least 32 of them soon. But staying at 8 P-cores forever is probably a bad idea.
Intel is expected to unveil the "Arrow Lake" CPUs next year which will be followed by "Lunar Lake" chips focused on laptops and ultrathin notebooks. Leaker Moore's Law Is Dead has alleged that Panther Lake processors could debut in late 2025. Beyond Panther Lake, Team Blue is also reportedly working on the "Beast Lake" CPU architecture.
