Posted by Charbax – October 15, 2015
Category: Wearables, Smartwatch, Exclusive videos, Rockchip, Intel, Android

Rockchip shows the cheapest Android Smartwatch platform, can potentially run Android 5 Android Wear (depending on Google’s approval) for now it’s just running Android 4.4.4 with Rockchip’s custom Android Smartwatch UI. This is an ARM Processor with an Intel logo on it! (which previously I filmed at http://138.2.152.197/?s=6321) To compete with MediaTek MT2601 it’ll bring ultra-affordable Android Smartwatches to the mass market with built-in dual-SIM card slots with dual-standby possible depending on Smartwatch design (most of the Smartwatch designs will probably only have 1 SIM card slot) , with A-GPS, GPS, GLONASS, with 3G/2G quad-band, supports displays of up to FWVGA, can record 720p videos at 30fps or take 8megapixel pictures from the Smartwatch camera! Meizu is probably going to be one of the brands to release this Smartwatch platform at a good price. The smart tracking possibilities for Kids trackers, Old people smart heart monitoring, Advanced fitness watches and a whole Smartwatch category in general, Rockchip with Intel wants to have a big part in that!

To develop and bring this to market, distributors and brands can contact design houses who work with Rockchip to make this Smartwatch platform, one of them is T-Chip, the info is here:
