You have to take the tongs rigor, but it seems that MediaTek has found a place within the range of Amazon Kindle Fire tablet.

The newspaper did not specify but if the chip is present in a single tablet model or several. In view of the characteristics of SoC Mediatek, there is a good chance that we find in an entry declination even mid-range of the Kindle Fire.

Quad-core and GPU PowerVR

To recap, the SoC MediaTek MT8135 integrates two ARM Cortex-A15 and Cortex-A7 two that work on the principle of big.LITTLE MP, a technology that allows you to run 4 hearts same time if the unit has a large power requirement. The graphics SoC is supported by a chip PowerVR G6200 Rogue has a computing power of 83 GFLOPS, comparable to the Adreno 320 on the Snapdragon 600.
