If asking which is the most welcome E-Book reader, then it must be the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite since it offers a very good use experience, and rich E-Book resource. In last autumn, Amazon released the second generation of Kindle Paperwhite. Now, about 1 year later, Amazon upgraded this second generation of Kindle Paperwhite.

As news, this new Kindle Paperwhite owns a 4G flash memory space. As we know, the old edition owns only 2GB memory space. Amazon said this upgrade is only the flash memory extension, not a new product. As the flash memory is bigger, users can store more e-book in local memory space, adding on the Cloud Drive service, users can store as many e-books as possible.

Though, Amazon has confirmed this upgrade, but it did not tell when this new edition will be for sale. But considering, it is just a memory extension, we believe, the new edition will be available for sale in the following weeks. Of course, you can click here to follow further news about it.

Recently, Samsung becomes the focus as it released one new smart phone named Galaxy Alpha. When it was launched, we have got one sample to test. What surprised us is the performance of the CPU it owns is very good. We tested by a third party software, the performance is very similar as the Nvidia Tegra K1, and in some aspect, it is even better.

At that moment, we don't know what the CPU is adopted by the Galaxy Alpha. But today, Samsung launched a new CPU, Exynos 5430 octa core. It is the one Galaxy Alpha adopts.

This Exynos 5430 octa core CPU adopts the 20nm process technology and the big.LITTLE framework from ARM. It integrates four Cortex A15 and four Cortex A17.

Except the higher performance, Samsung also reduced the power consumption by 25%. This chipset can support 2K resolution screen, and H.265 decode.

Except this new CPU, Samsung launched a new baseband chip as well, the model number is Exynos Modem 303. Though, Samsung did not disclose any information about this chip, but Ontablets believe it should be one for LTE Cat6 4G network.

As news from Taiwan last night, TSMC is trying to speed up the 16nm process. The trial production will be moved ahead to the third quarter of 2014. The first processor will be the Kirin 930, one 64 bit CPU based on big.LITTLE.

News suggested that TMSC invested a lot to enlarge the production volume of 16nm process chipset. The investment is over 3 billion US dollars. The first batch of Kirin 930 is in mass production this month. And in last quarter, the 16nm FinFET processor will be available for mass production. By this Kirin 930, Huawei surpassed Mediatek and Qualcomm, and becomes the first supplier adopting 16nm process.

This year, Huawei has already released the Kirin 920 chipset, and in the conference, Ontablets has been told that Huawei is developing 5G device.

Though, Kirin 920 is a nice processor. But the CPU and GPU performance can be improved further. The power consumption is very low already. So this new Kirin 930 may adopt the new Imagination PowerVR 6 series GPU. As the availability of Kirin 930, Huawei will become one of top CPU supplier in the world. But before that, Huawei need to resolve its shortcomings on operation system. If it can get back from Google or other big OS supplier, Kirin CPU will be top brand name in world.

To know more about this new Kirin 930 CPU, you can follow our blog for further news.

We are always impressed by the high performance of a Sony smart phone. Of course, its price is also much higher than similar mobile phone from China. But today, Ontablets displayed one entry level smart phone from Sony. Though, the price and release date is unknown, but from its specification, we can see it is a cheap model.

This Sony D2203 comes with one 6.1 inch big screen size, but the resolution is only 480*854 pixels. I am not wrong, it is only 480*854 pixels. Nowadays, buyers have higher demand on the screen resolution, we can not find any excuse to buy a mobile phone with such a low resolution screen. The unit adopts the Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad core CPU, frequency is 1.2GHz. It owns one 1GB RAM and 4GB flash memory. The front camera is only 0.3M pixels, and rear one is 5M pixels. The operation system is the Android 4.4.2 Kitkat.

As Sony reduced the screen resolution and adopts one quad core CPU from Qualcomm, I can believe, the running speed is not bad. But I still can not believe it.

Of course, the news is not conformed by Sony, so we can not make sure the news is true. You can read our following news about it.

As schedule, Samsung will release the latest Galaxy Note 4 next month. But this morning, Ontablets has revealed one new 5.5 inch smart phone from Samgsung. The model number is SM-G739F.

This SM-G739F adopts one 5.5 inch screen, the resolution is 1280*720 pixels. The CPU is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad core, the frequency is 1.6GHz. The GPU is Adreno 305. It owns 2G RAM and 16GB flash memory. The operation system is the latest Android 4.4.4 Kitkat OS. The front camera is 2M pixels and rear one is 8M pixels.

Now, there is no further information about it. In following days, we will keep on reporting news about this new smart phone.

Last week, one well known tablet solution supplier in China, Weibu hold a conference, and displayed its latest solution based on Intel Bay Trail Entry. One solution with Intel Z3735G CPU, 1G RAM and 8GB flash memory is only 28 US dollars.

In conference, Weibu shown us several tablet with the Intel Bay Trail Entry quad core CPU. The screen size is from 7 inch to 10.1 inch. The flash memory is from 8GB to 32GB. There are two operation system. Android and Windows OS. The screen resolution is from 1024*768 to 1280*800 pixels.

As we know, the Z3735G with 1GB RAM can not run Windows OS well. So, Weibu annouced that its new solution with Z3735F and 2GB RAM will be launched in near future, It can run Windows OS very well. As what Weibu said, they have 1000 pieces in trial production, and will be available at the end of this month. The OS is Android 4.4.2 and Windows 8.1

Intel Bay Trail Entry adopts the 22nm process, Silvermont 64 bit quad core framework. owns the Intel Gen7 GPU. It can support both Android and Windows OS. The difference of Z3735G and Z3735F is Z3735G can support 64 bit DDR3, and Z3735F can only support 32 bit DDR3.

As we have explained the Z3735G/F soluton has reduced the surround parts a lot, so the cost is also much lower than before. The solution of Z3735G with 1GB RAM and 16GB flash memory is only about 36 US dollar. Compared with the Clover Trail dual core with 8GB flash memory and 7.85 inch screen, the cost is only 1 US dollar higher. That means people can pay less to own a very good quad core tablet in future.

Now, we have already seen some tablet with Z3735F/G CPU for sale on www.ontablets.es. The price is also much lower than similar products. We believe, as more and more tablets available, the price will also reduce in future.

The body color of this unit is white and black. it comes with one rear camera. From the picture, we can not see if it comes with one front camera. But usually, it should be available. The screen size is 8.9 inch. But Ontablets did not tell the screen resolution. But if we refer another 8.9 inch tablet, the Ramos I9, the screen resolution should be 1920*1200 pixels. The CPU is Intel Bay Trail Z2580, it owns 2GB RAM. The rear camera is 5M pixels. If it comes with one front camera, then the resolution should be 2M pixels.

From last year, Sumsang started to put more efforts on tablets. And this year, Sumsang has released several new tablets including Galaxy Tab S and Tab Pro etc. So at the end of last year, The annual target of 2014 is 60 millions pieces. But as the report from ontablets.es, the total sales volume in the first half of 2014 is only 20 million pieces. That means, in the second half year, Sumsang needs to achieve 40 millions pieces. That is nearly impossible.

Though, the sales is only 20 million pieces in first half, but it still increased by 16.6% compared with last year. And usually, the second half is a sales season, especially during the Christmas holiday. So as estimation, the second half, Sumsang will sell about 30 millions pieces. But considering that Apple will release the new iPad about one or two month later, so in 2014, Sumsang may only achieve 40 million pieces.

Of course, there are a lot of news that Sumsang will release some other new tablets in the following months. So we can wait and see how's it going in the following months.
