Amazon Voyage will be launched today

My first impression of Amazon device is economic. Usually, its price is quite good, and performance is very high. But recently, the situation is changed. Especially, today Amazon will launch the Voyage, its price is nearly 200 euros. It is even more than two Kindle PaperWhite.


Yesterday, we have disclosed that Amazon would launch two new e-book readers, and three new tablets. But Amazon did note hold any presentation conference.

Regarding the three new tablets, it is just configuration updates. But what is most interesting is the Amazon Voyage e-book reader. Though, its price is very high, we believe it will still very welcome here.

Many people may care about the refresh rate, but Amazon did not tell about information about it for now. But obviously, it will be not enhanced a lot. In fact, compared with old e-book reader, the refresh rate of this Voyage is excellent. The refresh rate will depend the price of a e-book reader. For example, the Sony DPTS-1, its price is amazing 1100 US dollars, the fresh rate is very fast.

Intel Core M will beat ARM?

In the IDF conference hold at early of this month, Intel has announced the detail information about its Core M processor. Compared with Haswell processor, this Core M adopts 14nm process, and the size is about 50% smaller than Haswell, the power consumption is also reduced by 60%. As Core M processor does not require a fan, so a tablet can be only 7.2MM thickness. We know, Surface Pro 3 is 9.1mm thickness and iPad Air is 7.5mm. As news from Intel, before Christmas holiday, there will be over 20 different tablets with this Intel Core M processor. This Core M processor will compete with ARM.


In fact, ARM does not supply chipset, it just offer chip design to different chipset suppliers, like Qualcomm, Texas Instrument etc. In the past decade, Intel has missed out the smart end market. ARM has occupied smart end market by its power saving design.

As power saving is more important than the CPU performance. AMR has taken over 95 market share in the past decade. In 2010, Apple launched iPad, it means ARM has already moved to tablet field.

Compared with tablets with ARM, the tablets with Core M usually are about 1000 US dollars, Surface Pro 3 is is USD999.00, 13 inch Macbook Air is USD999.00, and 128GB iPad is about 929 US dollars. The price is quite similar. But compared with other cheap tablets, it is still very expensive. So Core M is mostly for high end market.

Compared with ARM, the advantage of Core M processor is the backup of Microsoft. We know, the ARM edition Windows OS-Windows RT is failed in the past years. That is because it can not support Windows software which runs on laptop PC.

This Core M makes the tablets more slim, quiet and power saving. We can see, in near future, we will see some smart phones with Core M as well.

During recent decade, though we have a big improvement on process technology of semi conduct, but EUV technology has little improvement. It is the core of semi conductor.

Microsoft would like to reduce its chassis suppliers

The latest Microsoft Surface 3 tablet has already landed Spain for some weeks. Totally, it is quite welcomed here. Till now, this unit has already been available in 25 different countries and areas. But this morning, as news from Ontablets, Microsoft would like to reduce its chassis suppliers for Surface tablets.

As news, Microsoft is planing to reduce its chassis suppliers, and all the chassis orders will be handled by Juteng. In August, Microsoft has already cut the suppliers from China. Not only chassis, the other parts for Surface, Microsoft will use the similar strategy.

Though, Microsoft did not confirm this news, but as estimation, Microsoft can not benefit if it orders from different suppliers. That's why it choose this strategy. But till now, Juteng did not respond this news.

But as in August, Microsoft has already stopped ordering chassis from China, so this news may be reliable and true.
