In March 2003, the Pentium 4 M (the mobile version of the Pentium 4) was discontinued after suffering from heat and power consumption problems and was replaced by the [[P6 (microarchitecture)|P6]]-based [[Pentium M]]. The Pentium M forms a part of the [[Intel Centrino|Centrino]] platform-marketing brand throughout the 2000s.

In May 2005, Intel released dual-core processors under the [[Pentium D]] and [[Pentium Extreme Edition]] brands. These came under the code names Smithfield and Presler for the 90&nbsp;nm and 65&nbsp;nm parts respectively.

The original successor to the Pentium 4 was (codenamed) [[Tejas and Jayhawk|Tejas]], which was scheduled for an early-mid-2005 release. However, it was cancelled a few months after the release of Prescott due to extremely high TDPs (a 2.8&nbsp;GHz Tejas emitted 150&nbsp;W of heat, compared to around 80&nbsp;W for a Northwood of the same speed, and 100&nbsp;W for a comparably clocked Prescott) and development on the NetBurst microarchitecture as a whole ceased, with the exception of the dual-core Pentium D, Pentium Extreme Edition and the Cedar Mill-based Pentium 4 HT.

The real successor to the Pentium 4 brand is the [[Pentium Dual-Core]] brand, released in 2006. The first chips implementing it (in 65&nbsp;nm) were released in January 2007 with the [[Yonah (microprocessor)|Yonah]] mobile processors and are based on the [[Enhanced Pentium M (microarchitecture)|Enhanced Pentium M]] architecture, in June 3, 2007 with the [[Conroe (microprocessor)#Allendale|Allendale]] (and later [[Conroe (microprocessor)|Conroe]]) desktop processors and in late 2007 with the [[Merom (microprocessor)|Merom]] mobile processors, with the underlying microarchitecture being the [[Intel Core (microarchitecture)|Core microarchitecture]].
