NVIDIA announces Tegra 4i SoC
Nvidia today announced the Tegra 4i, a smartpone chip with an integrated LTE modem on the same physical die. This is a follow-on to the Tegra 4 that was announced at this year’s CES 2013. Formerly known as “Project Grey”, Tegra 4i delivers the highest performance of any single-chip smartphone processor and is only half the size of its nearest competitor (Snapdragon 800).
Tegra 4i features:
- 60 custom NVIDIA GPU cores
- Quad-core CPU based on ARM’s newest and most efficient core— the R4 Cortex-A9 CPU— plus a fifth battery saver core
- A version of the NVIDIA i500 LTE modem optimized for integration
- Unique Chimera Computational Photography Architecture like Tegra 4
This brings Tegra 4 goodness to the mainstream smartphone market -- an extremely power efficient, compact, high- performance mobile processor that enables smartphone performance and capability previously available only in expensive super phones.
NVIDIA will also introduce its “Phoenix” reference smartphone platform for the Tegra 4i processor to demonstrate its unique mobile technologies. Phoenix is a blueprint that phone makers can reference in designing and building future Tegra 4i smartphones to help get them to market quicker.

Seconded. I had to buy a new battery for my S3 as the standard 2100mah one just got destroyed with wi-fi, downloading, games, and web surfing. Even with a battery saver app configured properly as well, screen brightness turned down and it would only last around 6 - 8 hours of consistent screen time if I was lucky. I now have a 4300mah batter and I can have it on for about two days without needing to charge it. Right now its on 17% battery and its been on that since last night with no charge and its been on a total of 2 days
All for £7 too.
They really need to focus on battery life rather than performance.
This is something. As long as the battery autonomy is better, ill buy hehe
