MWC 2014 - Wiko WAX packs Nvidia Tegra 4i processor ,to be launched next month

This morning we’re to understand that NVIDIA has paired up with their first partner for the NVIDIA Tegra 4i smartphone chip for the first time. The group that’ll be rolling with this chip first is the international brand Wiko, and the smartphone’s name is WAX. This smartphone is going to be very, very powerful.

Like the NVIDIA SHIELD handheld gaming system, this Wiko WAX system is going to be released with a 720p display. This will be a 4.7-inch 720 display on top of a smartphone that’ll be running with LTE as well as HSPA+ support in Europe starting this April. The device will be released in France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Italy, Belgium, and the UK as well.

If you’ve never heard of Wiko before - you’re not alone. They’re a quickly growing smartphone group that’s gained a footing in France with a cool 2-million users and more, with this device aiming to be one of their biggest international releases to date.

With the NVIDIA Tegra 4i, the company will be pushing a smartphone with - if you’ll remember from our look last year - a 60-core GPU. This processor has four CPU cores plus a fifth battery-saver core (or ninja core, if you prefer), all with NVIDIA’s first implementation of their 4G LTE capable formerly-known-as Icera modem (NVIDIA i500 LTE modem to be exact) architecture.

This device comes with the TegraZone pre-installed for a guide to the best in Tegra-optimized gaming, and we’ll likely see some additional NVIDIA-unique features unrolling with it in the future too. You’ll have an 8-megapixel camera on the back of this smartphone and a sleek overall look.

We’ll be seeing more information on this smartphone in the near future. For now, have a peek and get prepared for this release next month. SlashGear

HTC One to sell as TD 101 at China Mobile

HTC decided to invest in such a brand by launching the One series of smartphones last year, although the company was not able to impose its own product names to certain carriers. Then, just a few days ago, the company launched the HTC One, which is going to be the company’s only One-branded handset this year, a make-or-break kind of project for the Taiwanese Android maker that’s still having a tough time fighting against the competition, especially Samsung. We were under the impression that HTC will further invest in its One brand and not budge to carrier demands anymore when it comes to changing the name of the product – in the U.S., AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are going to sell it as the HTC One. But it looks like things aren’t necessarily so, and no, it’s not Verizon that’s going to get its way selling the One as the Droid DNA Plus, as it was recently rumored. We’re looking at China Mobile this time around, which has announced the HTC One as the HTC TD 101. That’s certa...
