New Blade 18 2026 seems to be available in the store.
Seems like the Blade 18 just got the upgrade with the Intel Core 9 Ultra 290HX Plus.
- Built to sustain high performance while running local LLM inference, compiling large codebases, rendering video and 3D assets, and playing modern AAA games.
- Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor (24 cores, up to 5.5 GHz boost) with an integrated NPU delivering up to 13 TOPS of AI acceleration
- Up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU with 175 W TGP, 24 GB of VRAM, and next-generation RTX AI technologies
- Brighter 18-inch dual-mode display for UHD+ 240 Hz and FHD+ 440 Hz experiences
- Advanced vapor chamber cooling with a refined multi-fan design for sustained workloads
- Desktop-class connectivity including Thunderbolt 5, Wi-Fi 7, 2.5 Gb Ethernet, a 5MP camera, and a six-speaker system powered by THX Spatial Audio+
Unfortunatly no OLED (was to be expected) but no Miniled as well... to bad.. (was hoping on that one!)
Looking forward to the benchmarks of the 290HX Plus.
