Nvidia's mobile chip fortunes could rebound with new LTE smartphones |
February 25, 2014
Nvidia’s struggling Tegra chip business could get a jolt from new smartphones using its latest chip, the Tegra 4i, which signals the chip maker’s entry into a new market of processors with integrated LTE radios.
LG’s G2 Mini and Wiko Mobile’s Wiko Wax are the first mobile phones built with the Tegra 4i, the company’s first processor with an integrated LTE modem. The quad-core chip is based on software-defined modem technology that Nvidia got with its acquisition of Icera in 2011.
The smartphones are being shown at the Mobile World Congress trade show in Barcelona.
The Wiko Wax smartphone has a 4.7-inch screen, an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 720p display resolution. Its maker, France’s Wiko Mobile, is targeting the handset at consumers in Europe who want to buy unlocked handsets.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
