As ever the new year in China brings new developments in processors, last year saw ingenics roll out new chips and rockchip threw out there current 27 series and also Actions released their (lost) 26 series
we now have new chips from ChinaChips, currently powering the new years releases of so-called HD players, Ingenics are releasing a new chip rumored to be powering Onda`s new player and rockchip to, with an apparently re-jigged 2706 processor, called the 2706B
The new player from Chinese manufacturer Chuwi, called the M60, is a 4″ screen player and seems to be the first player to utilise the new, re-vamped RK2706B
So what does this new processor version do, well the repost is that it improves video performance, noted especially was RMVB but others are reported as improved too, this i think is a knee jerk reaction to all the new chips coming out that can handle video alot better, and Rockchip are panicking as suddenly there market share from the big guns will drop. We have already seen this happen as many companies like Onda, Ainol, Ramos have adopted the new chinachip for their new players, rockchip, it appears, were not ready for this.
other improvements are:
- Reduced power consumption (thank god)
- Storage capacity has reached 4G (not sure what they mean by this)
- .. and not much else???
well, time will tell who wins out and if the B version improves anything at all or will it be a failed attempt
