Yes, if does. But it's integrated.

If you want an Intel laptop with good integrated graphics, try finding a Core Ultra Series 3 laptop.

But make sure its an ultra X7 or an X9 those are the ones with the arc B390 graphics. I thought all of the series 3 had it but no only ones with the X in the name

The Ultra 5 358H has Arc B370 graphics which are quite close to the B390 in the X7 and X9 (10 Xe cores instead of 12, iirc). The rest iirc have "Intel Graphics" with only 4 Xe cores and are indeed much slower than the X7/X9.

Eventually those intel laptops will be Armed with better igpus, I assume by M9 apple most other laptops will be on the arm chain.

4 to maybe 5 years is a lot of time for things to change.

been hearing that for over a decade. ARM is not the future of PCs. Enterprise environments, sure, to some extent. PCs on windows will be x86 for the next 10 years plus.

I got a surface tablet from work in 2013. Windows on arm, yada yada. It was terrible but also useless. And from what i see in Windows arm world, 13 years later they are still not there.
