Huawei MateBook Intel Windows 10 Tablet
Huawei releases their first Intel Winfoes consumer device at $699-$1599 with Intel core m3/m5/m7, 4GB/8GB RAM, 128-512GB SSD, $129 Keyboard dock, $89 MateDock for HDMI/Ethernet/2xUSB.
Richard Yu, Huawei CEO of Consumer, Huawei MateBook launch, $699-1599 Intel Windows 10 Tablet
Huawei CEO of Consumer says Huawei will overtake Apple in the next 2 years and they expect Huawei to be the number 1 in front of Samsung within 5 years from now. At MWC 2016, Huawei launches their first Intel Microsoft Windows 10 device, the MateBook, with Intel Core M3/M5/M7, with thin design, finger ID on the side, 128-512GB SSD, 4-8GB RAM, priced at $699-$1599 depending on the Intel processor, RAM and SSD choice and the Keyboard dock at $129, the USB Type-C MateDock is $89 extra. European prices are higher. This is not a $499 ARM Powered device. Google didn’t get Android yet to function for productivity (full Chrome on Android). Huawei didn’t force Microsoft to port all Windows 10 to Kirin950 ARM Cortex-A72 big.LITTLE.

EMS shows MIMO Baby by Rest Devices, Wins Best Commercialization Award at the IDTechEx Show!
Posted by – February 18, 2016
Engineered Materials Systems won “Best Commercialization Award” at IDTechEx Printed Electronics USA. This award was given for the use of their stretchable conductive ink in the successful commercial product MIMO Baby, made by Rest Devices. Rest Devices developed breakthrough wearable technology that combined capacitive sensing, blue tooth transmission of real-time biological data, and a clever way to integrate chip and power. What they lacked was a conductive ink that would meet their requirements of soft, stretchable and durable. Engineered Materials Systems submitted their flagship silver conductive ink, CI-1036 which worked very well according to Rest Devices engineers and was a key enabler to commercialization of MIMO Baby. CI-1036 is applied to proprietary film and insulated with a proprietary top-coat. This combination is reported by Rest Devices to withstand 90 wash/dry cycles of the MIMO Baby kimono with the failure mode not due to the conductive circuitry. Engineered Materials Systems, Inc. (EMS, Inc). is a global manufacturer of conductive inks, insulators, conductive adhesives for the printed electronics market. EMS has developed a highly stretchable/ flexible conductive ink for wearable electronics. For more information see http://emsadhesives.com/ and http://www.IDTechEx.com
