Vivante GC4000

The Vivante GC4000 is an integrated graphics card for ARM and MIPS based SoCs. It offers 8 VEC-4 or 32 VEC-1 shader cores. Built using the 40nm LP process at TSMC, Vivante specifies the card  200 M Tir/s geometry rate, 2.5 G Pixels/s texture rate and 45 GFLOPS processing power. It should be 5-8x faster than the GC800 but of course also larger than the GC 800 and GC2000.

Notebook reviews with Vivante GC4000 graphics card

 

Review Huawei MediaPad 7 Vogue Tablet

A niche tablet. In a more and more saturated market, tablets with telephone capability always count as niche products. The Chinese manufacturer Huawei wants to change that. With the MediaPad 7 Vogue, it throws into the mix a 7-inch candidate that not only surfs and plays films, but also serves as a fully capable phone replacement.

Review Huawei Ascend P6 Smartphone

Aluminum and more. Huawei has sent a stylish phone to our lab: An aluminum casing available in three different colors, quad-core SoC and a slim profile. Huawei's P6 should convince across the board with that, shouldn't it?

Review Huawei Ascend P2 Smartphone

Premium or mid-range? The Ascend P2 fuses a large screen and a powerful SoC underneath its black plastic casing. It is not quite clear what the device aims to be: Upper mid-range or lower premium sector. Compromises have to be made in some areas. Find out just where in this review.

Review Huawei MediaPad 10 Link Tablet

Linked. The Huawei MediaPad 10 Link not only enables connecting via Wi-Fi but also via mobile internet. Besides that, it belongs to the more affordable 10-inch tablets. Does this inevitably mean that compromises have to be made or can the MediaPad 10 Link also cater for demanding users?

Review Huawei Ascend Mate Smartphone

Big, bigger, Huawei Ascend Mate. Although officially a smartphone, the Huawei Ascend Mate could pass easily as a tablet with its 6.1-inch display. But as the test shows, the XXL phone has quite a bit more to offer than just its imposing screen.
