Intel’s comprehensive power mobile chip, bringing mobile phones to the $ 50 price

Launch a new mobile processor, relatively rarely become science and technology news headlines, chip level things consumer far away after all. But Intel’s latest chip series, both powerful and cheap, sure to drive high-performance, low-cost smartphones in a more extreme direction for development.

AtomX3, X5 and X7 appear in a wide variety of 2015 launch smartphones and tablet computers. The series processors are named like its computer processor core “I” line, X3 for lower-end phones, X5 for the mid, X7 aims at the high end. X3 is a cheap entry level SoC support 3G or 4G LTE network, integrated Bluetooth module, and uses the x86 schema.

X3 is so compelling because it brings the mobile phone under strong enough functionality that makes the phone can eventually fall in the $ 50 price point, this Smartphone development in developing countries will be a major boost. Now more than more than 20 equipment manufacturers and Intel X3 chip signed cooperation agreements. First equipped with Atom X3 (Duo 3G) devices will be available this quarter, while quad-core 3G and LTE version will be launched in the first half of this year.

Meanwhile, the X5 and X7 series mobile chipset is Intel’s mainstream and high-end, is also the first tablet to launch 14 nm SoC. Compared with Intel’s previous-generation chips, the new chip with twice the image processing performance, and will not burden the battery. X5 and X7 these chips also support Intel RealSense-d, as well as its TrueKey password authentication based on facial recognition. In the first half of 2015, you will find, Lenovo, Dell, HP, Acer, ASUS, Toshiba, and other manufacturers of Android and Windows Tablet PC equipped with these chips.

Intel announced at the MWC’s last hardware is the new LTE-A base band chip XMM 7360. Intel says the baseband chip could provide a more stable connection and faster speeds. Second half of this year will be put on the market, it provides up to 450 Mbps of transfer speed.

Intel’s first generation Atom mobile chips in early 2008 was released, Intel slightly late into the mobile market, and also the X86 processor is a computer chip widely used. Meanwhile, manufacturers such as Qualcomm and mediatek is the ARM architecture. For mobile devices, ARM architecture better than X86 architecture optimization, application systems and better stability and compatibility, and the chip’s power consumption and heat output control is better. In that context, Intel spent suffering in the mobile market in several years.

With almost two years of continuous improvements in performance and power consumption, as well as support in the PC era accumulated partners, Intel’s performance has made real progress in the mobile market. X3, X5, and X7 support for Windows, and Microsoft giving up on Windows RT, Intel’s leading mobile chip leader Qualcomm in this regard.

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 Disney iPhone case

Surface Pro Tablet and laptop in one is a good idea, on which men don’t want Hall under the kitchen’s wife? Which tech press want to write the article talks of all business people? Surface and primary Surface Pro Pro 2 (only CPU generation) is neither good tablets, thick, short battery life; it’s not a good laptop, small screen, bad keyboard, frame is not flexible. Now, the Surface Pro 3 comes out clear, these problems all solved, Microsoft has always been low-key attitude began to fight back.
