Unexpectedly for many recently popular among manufacturers of mobile equipment is gaining once eminent, but at some time almost forgot chip maker Rockchip, who took over the palm of the other manufacturer's mobile processors Allwinner.
After the release of the chip Allwinner A80T found that a potential leader of a large number of unresolved issues, in particular, the imperfection of drivers, low productivity and incompatibility with other electronic components. Now the leader can rightly take RK3288 - summer novelty of Rockchip, which, however, will not be the last this year. As it became known, to the end of the year the technology giant will introduce more 3 processors, one of which will respond to the latest trends of the world of mobile electronics and will be built on 64-bit architecture.
Novelty codenamed Rockchip Maybach will be positioned as a top processor for Android-powered devices. This will be an eight 64-bit chip based on cores ARM Cortex-A53. Declared support for OpenGL ES 3.0 and 4K-video and H.265 video to 1080p-H.264. Two other new devices are designed for the budget and mid-level. They are quad-core processors based on ARM Cortex-A7. RK3126 will be presented in October, and RK3128 show a month later.
