[h=2]Intel unveils new LTE module[/h]Written by Fudzilla staff

Getting there, slowly

Intel has added another module to its growing portfolio of 4G LTE solutions. The XMM 7160 is said to be one of the smallest LTE solutions out there and it’s already shipping in Samsung’s Intel-based Galaxy Tab 3. However, it is still a module and Intel will not have an integrated LTE solution until 2014, if then. Intel expects the first LTE-enabled phones based on its SoCs to show up next year, but they will not have integrated LTE.

Unlike its previous solutions, the XM7160 supports HSPA and GSM in addition to 15 LTE bands. It also supports VoLTE services. Intel plans to introduce an even more advanced LTE module next year, with support for new advanced LTE features used by some networks. Intel is also offering the M.2 LTE module, which has practically the same hardware packed in a standard mini PCIe package.

Until Intel launches its first truly integrated LTE solution, Qualcomm will continue to dominate the LTE space, virtually unopposed. Intel is not alone though. Nvidia, Mediatek and Broadcom are all behind Qualcomm and they are struggling to catch up.

However, Samsung and Apple are still absent from the list and they rely on discrete solutions, not to mention countless smaller players, so there’s still a market for modules like the XMM 7160.

De ce am postat asta? Nu se stie sigur cum functioneaza Anti-Theft-ul de la Intel. Din mment ce poate functiona pe GSM, inseamna ca procesorul are un modul de GSM "ascuns", nu? Stirea asta ma face sa fiu si mai paranoic si sa cred si mai mult aceasta teorie.
