GPU can also perform computation in applications traditionally handled by the CPU. In mobile devices GPU is usually utilized by games, UI, video playback, etc. GPU is a graphical processing unit, which handles computation for 2D/3D graphics applications. It is measured in Megahertz (MHz) or Gigahertz (GHz). The frequency of the processor describes its clock rate in cycles per second. They increase the performance of the device allowing the execution of multiple instructions in parallel. Presently, besides single-core processors, there are dual-core, quad-core, hexa-core and so on multi-core processors.
If the CPU does not find the data needed in L2, it proceeds to look for them in the 元 cache memory (if there is such) or in the RAM.Ī CPU core is the processor unit, which executes software instructions. Just like L1, it is much faster than the system memory (RAM). The L2 (level 2) cache memory is slower than L1, but has a larger capacity, instead, which allows it to cache more data. In some processors the search in L1 and L2 is simultaneous. If the processor does not find the data needed in L1, it continues to look for it in the L2 cache memory. The L1 (level 1) cache memory has a small volume, but operates faster than the RAM and the rest cache memory levels.
The cache memory is used by the processor in order to shorten the time needed to access data and instructions that a frequently used. Information about the set of instructions the processor can execute. The instruction set architecture (ISA) is a set of commands used by the software to manage the CPU's work. 64-bit CPUs provide better performance than 32-bit ones, which on their part perform better than 16-bit processors.
The CPU bits are determined by the bit-size of the processor registers, address buses and data buses. Its main function is to interpret and execute instructions contained in software applications.Ģx 1.5 GHz ARM Cortex-A15, 2x 1.2 GHz ARM Cortex-A7 The value in nanometers represents half the distance between elements that make up the CPU.ĬPU is the Central Processing Unit or the processor of a mobile device. Information about the process technology used in manufacturing the chip. The SoC integrates different hardware components such as the CPU, GPU, memory, peripherals, interfaces, etc., as well as software for their functioning. System on Chip (SoC) A system on a chip (SoC) includes into a single chip some of the main hardware components of the mobile device. Information about the colors, in which the device is available in the market. Applies for devices in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped. Information about the weight of the device in different measurement units.Įstimated volume of the device, calculated from the dimensions provided by the manufacturer. Information about the thickness/depth of the device in different measurement units. the vertical side of the device when it is used in its standard orientation. the horizontal side of the device when it is used in its standard orientation. Body materials, available colors, certifications. It is priced at $199, has 32GB of storage and available in blue, pink, and purple.Design Information about the dimensions and weight of the device, shown in different measurement units. There is also a Kids Edition of the tablet which comes with a case with a built-in kickstand. It comes in black, plum, twilight blue, and white. The new tablet will be available for purchase on October 30 but you can pre-order now. If you want it without Special Offers, you will have to pay $164.99 and $204.99 respectively. The 32Gb version will sell for $149.99 while the 64GB version will be sold for $189.99. The Amazon Fire HD 10 (2019) will keep the price tag of its predecessor.
Supported apps are NetFlix, STARZ, Pinterest, MLB At Bat, and o course Prime Video. It also comes with support for Picture-in-Picture which allows you to continue watching a video while surfing the web or doing something else.
The cameras on both sides are 2MP and support 720p HD video recording. There is 2GB of RAM and 32GB or 64GB of expandable storage. However, you can also purchase separately a 15W charger that costs $19.99 that will fully charge it in 3 hours. A 9W charger ships with the tablet and will charge it fully in 4 hours. Amazon has also added a USB Type-C port to replace the MicroUSB port. The Fire HD 10 will provide up to 12 hours of reading, web surfing, and video playback. Amazon says the new tablet is now 30% faster.Īlong with a new processor is also a better battery life. However, it now comes with a 2.0GHz octa-core processor which replaces the quad-core processor in 2017’s version. The 9th Gen tablet still has a 10.1-inch 1920 x 1200 display. Its largest tablet, the Amazon Fire HD 10 has just gotten a refresh and this new version brings along some really interesting features to Amazon’s largest Fire Tablet.
