In a move to revolutionize laptop energy efficiency, Intel and DOE have joined forces to introduce groundbreaking AI-driven technologies. These innovations are designed to maximize battery life while maintaining superior display quality. Through meticulous engineering, these advancements promise to adaptively manage power consumption, ensuring users enjoy prolonged device usage without compromising on performance.
Innovative AI-Powered Display Technologies Unveiled
Last year, BOE introduced the industry to its Winning Display 1Hz technology which slashes power usage by 65%. Building on this, Intel has now officially teamed up with DOE to bring this technology, along with two other energy-saving features, to laptops worldwide. These AI innovations intelligently manage the delicate balance between power efficiency and image quality, ensuring optimal user experiences. Intel’s collaboration with DOE focuses on deploying AI-based solutions that intelligently adjust display settings to conserve battery life.
Over the past decade, Intel and BOE have worked together to launch a number of innovative energy-saving technologies and solutions that have significantly extended the battery life of laptops. This allows users to enjoy entertainment and work efficiently for longer periods of time without having to charge frequently. We will promote the development of display technology and solutions by pioneering more usage models, and jointly improve the PC user experience. (Machine Translated)

DOE and Intel: Pioneering Futuristic Display Solutions
DOE, a major player in the display manufacturing industry, is renowned for its diverse panel offerings, including LCD, micro LED, and OLED displays. It is responsible for producing around 30% of global LCD screens. Their innovative 1Hz display technology is designed to minimize power consumption by activating during periods of low screen activity, such as when static content is displayed. This technology enables longer battery life by reducing the need for frequent refreshes.
Intel’s approach includes the cutting-edge Multi-Frequency Display (MFD) technology, which dynamically adjusts the refresh rate in real time, depending on content needs. This technology ensures that areas like the taskbar lower refresh rates to save energy, while more demanding applications like video playback receive necessary higher refresh frequencies.
Additionally, the SmartPower HDR technology optimizes power based on display brightness. In HDR mode, which typically uses more power, this feature adjusts backlight levels in darker areas to conserve energy. We got a preview of this tech at the Intel Tech Tour 2025.
In the process of cooperation with Intel, BOE has achieved fruitful results with its own innovative advantages in the display field. The solution jointly created by the two parties not only reduces notebook power consumption, but also improves visual clarity and adaptability, achieving a balance between energy efficiency and excellent experience. Today, these breakthroughs driven by display technology will open up new usage scenarios, allowing PCs to more flexibly meet various needs and lay a solid foundation for the development of the AI PC era.
