I've got michael here from intel he's going to tell us about the brand new Intel powered smartphones and some of their brand new mobile chips Michael one of the questions we have is what's the power consumption like on this and what is battery life and TPU look like on these chips so all of our phones have slightly different size batteries so it would obviously depend on the phone but don't don't let us me go to third party sources you know the verge did a very very good article benchmarking our power performance versus some of the our arm brace competitors so our motorola razr iphone has very very competitive power efficiencies and battery life so is this chip you guys are aiming at competing directly with arm and Samsung so we actually we are all of our smartphones are based out of the intel atom chip sets and we've launched them seven phones in 2012 there are available around the world we it is a different micro architecture and different solution than our basis solutions out there so this is our first year into the mobile market and we've made some really good progress so far okay what about hardware platforms what companies do you anticipate starting to carry this entail brand of your mobile chip so like I said we we do have seven partners that we're working with we have seven phones out there in the market in 2012 two from motorola one from ZTE that you see out there one from lenovo one from lava which is a telecom company i'll in india the phone i'm holding a hand we're running that demo off of is orange which is a telecom operator in france and the UK so we come up with smartphone reference designs we give it to our third-party OEMs they take those they manufacture the phones we work very closely with our partners to bring these solutions to market and something that you I'm going to kind of throw at you here you may not be able to answer this Intel looking at building any sort of a mobile operating system in the future has there been any roadmap regarding that so are a primary I guess a focus right now is on android android is the predominant mobile OS around the world and whereas exclusively focusing on android we all of our mobile phones are running on either android 4.0 or earlier variants of android so right now we're just sticking with android on the smartphone side of course if you take a look at our tablet solutions also running the intel atom processor there are windows 8 tablets a fully windows 8 capable so on the smart phones we have android on the tablet side we have a mixture of android tablets and also windows 8 and tablets as well and then what everyone wants to know now is availability so all of these phones are available out in the market all of the seven phones that we're showing you can buy them around the world ZTE phone is available in europe the Lenovo phone is being sold in China the lava phone is available in India the orange phone is available in France in the UK the motorola phone we have out front again china latin america and europe so we have a variety of smartphones out there that we've hit the marketplace with and we're very pleased with the progress we've made in 2012 and you have anticipated us lunch date we don't have anticipated US launch so far but many of these phones you can go ahead and buy them unlocked and have them shipped to you plop in the sim card and they should be were able to work on the US for all of us carrying the motorola razr iphone ourselves and we use that that's the phone that's available in latin america and and also the u of europe as well so we just pop in the sim and we use it with the AT&T carrier great that's been Michael with Intel this is JC sense and you have your scoop now on the Intel smartphone you
