  • Samsung recently had launched its Galaxy Note 3 and now to set things right, Nvidia is here with the Tegra Note. It is a 7 inch pen-enabled Android tablet which features a passive stylus for writing and drawing on the tablet. The goal of the tablet is to make it feel more like paper and not to stress on the technology behind it. This was made possible thanks to the Direct Stylus Technology used in the passive stylus, offering the same functionality and responsiveness same as an active stylus and transferring the stylus processing to the Tegra 4's fifth power saving core.

    The Tegra Note packs some really good hardware and the specifications are as follows
    • Quad-core Tegra 4 Processor
    • 7 inch display 1280x800 IPS LCD display
    • 1GB of RAM
    • 16GB onboard storage and 32GB microSD card slot
    • 5 MegaPixel Rear Camera and VGA Front Camera
    Along with the above features, Tegra Note would include front facing HD audio speakers with a bass-flex port. This port has been developed using Nvidia's PureAudio technology. The camera is said to have amazing real-time HDR and object tracking capabilities. The battery life is expected to be around 10 hours of HD video playback.

    The Tegra Note would be available in October at $199 being a reference design to its hardware partners. Are tablets only going hardware strong? Has the technology among tablets become mainstream already?

    I read an article of Stylus in Nvidia blog few months ago, Impressive technology it is. It can differentiate Pen's tip, back & even finger.

    Quad-core Processors with 5 cores seems to be like new technology used by every ARM Processor developers like Qualcomm,Samsung & Nvidia.
    Four cores for performance & one core dedicated for Power saving.
    I have tried to gather information on how fifth core helps in saving the power, unfortunately didn't find a single article which can help me understand it accurately.

    The Tegra Note is not a off-the-shelf tablet but a tablet platform that includes not just the chipset and hardware by NVIDIA but also its in-house technologies as well. Even though it has been designed by NVIDIA its OEM partners across the world will be in-charge distributing the product after modifying the hardware and software depending on their respective markets. For an India launch, they have tied up with XOLO who are planning to launch the device soon.
