welcome to Linus Tech tips at CES 2013 our trip to the show this year is
powered by Corsair maker of quality PC components and peripherals our trusted
storage partner is Seagate technology and our trusted networking partner is
linkis this is it guys Intel is finally
serious business about smartphones so they have not only Medfield on display
which is running at 1.6 GHz here and is actually running at 2 GHz on the a
Motorola Razer I over there which is
very very cool so it's the first smartphone to run at 2 GHz they are also
introducing their Lexington platform which runs at 1.2 GHz now both of these
platforms are single cores but they both run hyperthreading technology which
means that while the processor is waiting for data from the memory it can
go do other stuff and from the word on
the street we are hearing that it is competitive particularly the Medfield
platform with first generation quad core processor
in a lot of different areas not only performance but also in terms of battery
life now check this out this guy behind me has actually been running that phone
all day it's still got about 70% battery he's streaming over HDMI playing a game
well he was playing a game until he started talking to that gentleman so he's been playing a game at 1080p on the
TV right here that is the 1.6 GHz
platform which is not even the premium one now that lower end Lexington one is
actually targeted smarted phones under $200 which is extremely exciting
especially in regions outside of North America where things are still more
developing the economy is developing and people are looking for a cheaper
platform that doesn't necessarily compromise in terms of the functionality
and the performance don't miss any of our CES 2013 coverage and don't forget
