Intel's situation in the processor market is being quite complicated. Currently they would have a demand much higher than production capacity, generating a shortage of processors. As is logical, the company's income has set a record in 2019, and selling everything has its negative and positive side. Now it has been announced that it could launch the 10th Gen for notebooks shortly.
According to reports, the tenth generation of S and H processors for laptops could arrive in March. This strategy does not seek anything other than Take on AMD's Ryzen 4000U and Ryzen 4000H. Note that despite the denomination established by AMD, these processors are based on Zen2 @ 7nm.

Intel to launch notebook processors in March
Not much else has been specified regarding these laptop Intel processors. Everything indicates that they will be 10nm processors, not 14nm, although we cannot confirm this. If they are confirmed to be based on 10nm lithography then they will be Sunny Cove architecture. These processors could be stiff competition for the AMD Zen2 @ 7nm processors destined for the notebook market.
AMD in Japan closed 2019 with a 25% market share, with incredible growth, coming from just 1% share. The idea is to consolidate this data with the Ryzen 4000 for laptops, even expanding its market share.
Should it be confirmed that the 10th Gen Intel notebook processor is based on 10nm, we will see brutal competition. So the second quarter of the year we will see a strong battle for possibly the most important market. And it is that the laptop market is one of the ones that generates the most income, above the desktop computer market.
We will see if they are finally based on 10nm, because since they are based on 14nm, Intel has a problem. In case they are based on this second lithograph, AMD will have it very easy to improve their position. And is that AMD would offer more cores, more performance, lower price and above all, more efficiency and therefore more autonomy.
