NVIDIA Shield 2 to feature Tegra K1 SoC, 4GB RAM, 900p resolution?
The device has a purported resolutionof 1440x810, which probably means 1440x900 (WXGAII) sans the 90pxallotted to the Android software navigation buttons. The resolutionamounts to a 16:10 wide-screen display of unknown size. We reckonNVIDIA won't go past 6 inches if it wants to keep a sensible handheldprofile, but who knows.
Previously, we've seen the K1 SoCobtain a godlike 43,851 result in the AnTuTu benchmark, blowing theSnapdragon 801 CPU out of the water and probably capable enough tobeat the Snapdragon 805 when Qualcomm unleashes it. Alas, making sucha powerful CPU manageable in terms of energy consumption and heatdissipation is a task that NVIDIA is yet to prove it can handleoutside of its test facilities.
There's no word about when the Shield 2will arrive on the market, but we will keep you posted.
