Yet another Android smartphone launch - yawn? Nope, this one is special!

This new ZTE packs an Intel CloverTrail+ CPU running at a full 2GH/z. That's more computing power than many desktops had not too many years ago, and better than many netbooks currently in use. It's "binary compatible" with regular PCs too - that means that there's no need for developers to run emulations, they can run the same instructions directly, and use regular PC software tools. Graphics are reportedly three times faster than current generation ARM based phones like the Samsung Galaxys and iPhones.

No UK availability date or price yet, but I will try to keep you updated.

    • Your verdict on the local lockdown measures imposed in the North East

      Almost two-thirds of residents feel the Government was too late introducing a local lockdown in the North East as Covid-19 cases continue to rocket, according to a ChronicleLive survey.
      Tighter restrictions were imposed across the region's seven council areas on September 18 in a bid to combat the spike in coronavirus cases.
      But numbers continue to soar at an alarming rate, with North East cases more than doubling to 2,524 in the week leading to September 21 from 1,107 in the previous seven days.
      According to Public Health England data covering the seven days to September 22, Newcastle now has the highest rate of infection in the North East and the fifth-highest in England – with the city’s numbers almost tripling.
      Newcastle recorded 632 new cases in that week, with an infection rate of 208.7 per 100,000 people. That was compared to 224 new cases and a rate of 74 in the previous 7 days.
      South Tyneside had previously had the second-highest rate in England, but is now eighth according to the latest figures. The borough recorded 301 new cases with an infection rate of 199.4 per 100,000.

      Computex 2013, Taipei
      By threegee
      Here's some press video just shot at Computex (no sound). Many of the devices shown are using the new Haswell architecture CPUs, and the power savings are obvious from the reduced form factors. With the 14nm die shrink next year "real" computers can only continue to get even lighter and more powerful. Notice too the odd Intel powered phone - ARM is going to be sidelined over the next decade. We'll see a lot of this stuff in the shops before year-end.
