1 GB of ram would be tough for Windows. Android would be better.
To get to 1 GB of memory space as a minimum, the app store frameworks were refined, and the process lifetime manager is more aggressively suspending apps, as opposed to killing them.
How much do you think Intel is losing on it?
I think those are the kind of CPU that Intel intends to pit agaist quad A7 like the A31, and in that, i think they are very nice, actually Z3735E has the same base clocks and turbos present on Asus T100 Z3740, and im expecting that it will perform very similar on cpu side, thats already top A15 performance at A7 prices, the IGP its gona suffer a lot, but i dont think i can ask more out of a $100 tablet.
Actually the 1GB thing bother me more than the bandwidth.
Quad core A8 will probably rip this apart in GPU but may lose in load power efficiency and idle.
Never discount apple when it comes to engineering. The fact is an iOS device is going to run much better than an android device with similar specs.
Cortex A7, not Apple A7.

Regarding the 5.3 GB/s bandwidth, It will interesting to find out how much that affects HDMI docking to a higher resolution desktop monitor or TV.
Where did you get these numbers from?Moorefield, the 2.33GHz Z3580, is about 25% faster than S801 in AndEBench native and 2.5x faster in the java version. I guess it also consumes considerably lower power as well.
Intel will suddenly immediately dominate 2014's fastest phones.
Interesting to see if it really can perform in that kind of thermal envelope. ARM is known for power efficiency at speed and at idle I have yet to see intel or even apple to offer alternatives that provide both.
Where did you get these numbers from?
In the current AndEBench DB, the fastest Intel based device gets 15,059 native and 396 for Java. It's a Z3735E so running @1.83 GHz; if we assume linear scaling to 2.33 GHz that'd give us about 19k and 504.
The fastest S801 based device is getting 17,976 native and 720 for Java.
Very far from the numbers you quote.
Is there nothing about Cherry Trail at Computex? Doesn't bode well for holiday 2014, no Cherry Trail based tablets this year I assume.
Thanks. It looks like Intel improved the Java engine a lot!Here. I was comparing with Sony Z2.
Is it just me but when seeing all these small tablets I hope Vesa Dockport will take off. Dockport was originally AMD Lighting which was in competition with Intel's Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt never really took off in the mainstream market (besides Apple) and AMD Lighting to my understanding is vaporware.
Dockport was announced by Vesa at CES 2014 (January 2014) and they said they finalized the standard and updated it USB 3.1 (Now, Jun 2014).
Hopefully due to it being royalty free and requiring very little chips to implement (since it is just effectively usb 3.1, power, and displayport muxed over a single cable) that we can get hubs/port replicators/docking stations that are close to the price of current usb 3 hubs instead of the exorbitant price of what docking stations cost.
Just imagine plugging in your tablet to recharge it, but now it is your desktop for you plug it in your "hub" which has keyboard, mouse, 4k monitor support, gigabit ethernet, and very quick access times to your home nas over gigabit ethernet. You don't have to worry what is sync at your desktop at work or your desktop at home, you do not have to worry about the cloud for you take the cloud with you.
Oh and such a tablet+docking station can be sub <$300 with a 1920x1080 screen and single thread performance that does not want you to make you gouge your eyes out.
They launched Bay Trail at Fall IDF last year and got a few designs out, most notably the T100. But you're right... they at least showed off Bay Trail a bit, and we knew about its architecture by this time last year.Is there nothing about Cherry Trail at Computex? Doesn't bode well for holiday 2014, no Cherry Trail based tablets this year I assume.
