Over the past few weeks we have been hearing quite a lot about Windows Phone 8.1. Microsoft is expected to release this major update for its mobile platform in the near future, and several features that this update is going to bring have already been detailed online due to an SDK leak. Initially it was rumored that Windows Phone 8.1 will bring the ability to mirroring the device’s screen but the protocol wasn’t known. It is now believed that Windows Phone 8.1 Miracast support is possible, provided that Microsoft is able to finish it in time.

This week brought leaks of a smartphone that tips the scales with a 6-inch screen, an alternate ego to the oft-leaked Sony ‘Honami’ and the return of unlimited data to a certain AT&T MVNO. So buy the ticket and take the ride as we explore all that’s happening in the mobile world for this week of August 12th, 2013.

MediaTek’s MT8135 SoC does dual-core big.LITTLE MP, packs PowerVR Series6 GPU
Posted in: Today's Chili
It’ll be a while before MediaTek’s true octa-core SoC makes its glorious arrival, but for the time being, the company’s unveiling something just as interesting — and perhaps more practical. The new MT8135 announced today is a “quad-core” SoC aimed at “the middle- to high-end tier of the tablet OEM market.” We quote “quad-core,” because it actually consists of two clusters: dual Cortex-A15 cores and dual Cortex-A7 cores. But the good news is that unlike the original big.LITTLE configuration where only one cluster can operate at any given time (depending on how heavy the workload is), MediaTek’s confirmed that it has implemented big.LITTLE MP (“MP” as in heterogeneous multi-processing) in the MT8135, meaning both the A15 and the A7 clusters can operate simultaneously.
Another highlight of this MT8135 is that it’ll be one of the first SoCs — alongside LG’s H13 (which we’ve seen first-hand), Renesas’ APE6 and Renesas’ R-Car H2 — to come with Imagination Technologies’ almighty PowerVR Series6 GPU. Specifically, this is the PowerVR G6200 which, as part of the MT8135, can apparently deliver “up to four times more ALU (arithmetic logic unit) horsepower” than the Series5XT GPU on the cheaper, quad-A7 MT8125. And unsurprisingly, the MT8135 gets the same Miracast wireless video goodie given to the MT8125; though it’s also worth noting that the latter only supports LPDDR2 RAM instead of the more powerful LPDDR3.
Sadly, there’s no further information regarding availability, but you can kill some time by checking out more technical details in the video (with benchmarks) and press releases after the break.
