So I've seen rumors of the Transformer 2 coming out in foreseeable future with a Tegra 3 processor and all the bells and whistles. Has Acer made any indication that it will have an answer back device? I almost feel like I've gotten on to the Tablet Train too late if they are about to do a generation shift with the processors and such.
Yes it will.
Yeah, it will be available via an OTA end of August

Unless they put Star Trek teleporter technology in this thing I don't think they can OTA update the processor.
I do think they'll come out with a Tegra 3 tablet, I can think of no reason why they wouldn't. Considering it'd be more similar of a development environment than switching to OMAP or something. I also think that when it comes to touting your "platform" Nvidia sounds better than TI or Qualcomm. It's a more known brand, at least for high performance parts.
Perhaps the better questions would be, has Acer confirmed an Tegra 3 tablet? Is there any inkling that they will release anything close to the time that Asus does?
What your tab don't have Teleport!!!
You should try the new vogon rom c fleet v1.02.119.006 update 61b alpha...
I was thinking about buying the Samsung galaxy S2 with the Dual core but im think I'm gonna wait for the rumoured galaxy S3 that may be released end of this year!

I love it! I wanna see higher definiton and how it looks!
Has the current Gen of 10" Honeycomb tablets even been out for a year yet? It seems crazy that the next generation is already coming out. Won't that create marketplace confusion?

Hell, Nvidia already had Tegra 3 on roadmaps for 2012 before the first real Tegra 2 devices were out, if I wasn't such a must have guy I'd have waited. As it is I'll sell the Iconia or pass it to the g/f and get me a Tegra 3/Ice Cream Sandwich device when they hit. That's provided reviews don't show some other platform stomping Tegra 3, which is doubtful.

There will be no Tegra 3 devices on the market this year. Q1/Q2 2012 at the earliest.

It was announced "before CES," which is in January, 2012.
Tegra 3 seems inevitable for android tabs its like asking if the newest high end PC's will have the latest Intel cpus. When they will be released is another question. Since most tegra2 tabs were only released a few months ago I can't see anything replacing them for at least another year.

I would not say it's a dead certainty by any means, considering that the founder of Acer has expressed pessimism about the future of tablets. I'd post a link, but as a new user, i'm not allowed to do so - article title is "Ultrabooks and tablet PCs are short-term fads, says Acer founder" on digitimes.
For sure there will be Tegra 3 based tablets, but maybe not by Acer. I get the impression that the A500 might not be a huge commercial success for Acer.

To launch in October would mean the tabs would have to be in the functional prototype stage NOW. Even if Nvidia do manage to release the hardware this year (latest reports peg a CPU release for Q3 2011), it's REALLY unlikely anything will make it to market for several months afterwards.
Archos has a tablet coming out using a 1.5ghz TI chip. They already have the promo videos out. It looks to have improved performance. Seems to me that the 1ghz Tegra2 chip just isn't quite powerful enough for 3.1. I run stock with overclock kernel and keep my CPU set to 1.2ghz to get the kind of performance I need. I had a Viewsonic gTablet that I tried to run at 1.2ghz and it couldn't take the overclocking and would crash frequently. So far my A500 has handled the overclocking in all modes, including video play, Netflix, etc. Very pleased with that.
@jyams There are actually some benchmarks of systems using those chips, they're pretty decent performance wise.

Part way down that page is a small "preview" of two phones, one using the lower end TI chip, OMAP 4430 I think. It's compared to a phone using Tegra 2. The 1.5GHz part I think is 4460 however, so should have a bit more performance. It's only a couple of benchmarks, so take it with a grain of salt.
Another thing to consider, how is the dev community for other platforms? I've only owned one non-Tegra device and there was none for it.

Isn't that something? Still, one would think an extra 1GB of RAM (in addition to the 16GB additional storage) and upgraded cameras would have been possible.
As they are releasing a slightly updated 7.7 hopefully it will get jellybean or key lime pie and in turn the original 7.7
My Tab 7.7 already 32GB... and I don't care about camera and LTE thus my question is
1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm vs current Exynos 1.4Ghz dual core, which one is faster ?
Aren't Exynos better than the Qualcomm?

Depends. Since its Qualcomm, I'm betting cyanogenmod support will be good, unlike exynos

Apparently the Exynos benches better than the Qualcomm on Geekbench(1197 versus 912), which is an older chipset that seems to be the same one on the Samsung Galaxy S II. So maybe it's a step down in speed?

(Can't post links yet, since I usually just lurk here) >< Just input the above link
It looks to me like most performance upgrades are marginal at best. I would see no reason to buy this model if you own the previous one.
So what do you guys think the chances of us seeing jellybean released for our beloved tabs..?

I think there are a couple of other thread discussing Jelly Bean for the 7.7. My assumption would be that the 7.7 Plus would almost certainly come with JB.

Not much improvement for 7.7 Plus. I really think a suitable upgrade after 7.7 would be a quadcore tablet.
Don't wait for official Jellybean from Samsung. Just try custom ROM like Paranoid Android.
Lets not forget that the original galaxy note is getting Jellybean, and its exactly the same specs as our beloved Tab 7.7 so
either Samsung might release a jellybean version for us of I dev can possibly port that rom to our tab 7.7!!!!!!!:cyclops
Very happy that they've got a successor because if my 7.7 ever broke I'd be really disappointed to go to a regular LCD screen. The OLED screen is the best quality screen I own!
I know this is probably discussed in the mammoth 29 page thread about the release and price and all but darn if I can scour thru all that... lol
I just looked on Best Buy's site and the Wifi edition is a quad core 1.9 ghz now I thought the quad got the 2.3 and the octa got the 1.9? I mean this looks backwards to me. If I'm only getting 4 cores give me the faster ones please!

I noticed that too! And i'm wondering the same thing. I really hope the 1.9GHZ isn't paired with the quad-core.
I figured that's just an error on their part?
Yeah it's probably an error. Back when I was researching the HP slatebook x2, Best Buy had the graphics as "Intel HD 4000" for like 2 weeks before changing to the correct NIVIDIA Tegra.
Edit: I'm sorry, they still have it listed in the spec sheet incorrectly lol...wow
Have you seen the official spec sheet? http://www.samsungmobilepress.com/2013/09/04/GALAXY-Note-10.1-(2014-Edition)-1
.
Best Buy isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. Its the Octocore Exynos chipset which is a dual Quad-Core processor configuration.

BestBuy is quite confused and messed up here. WiFi versions of the Galaxy tab get the 1.9 GHz octa core, and the LTE version got the 2.3 version Quad core. However, out of the 8 cores, only 4 are clocked at 1.9 GHz and they are the Cortex-A15 cores. The other 4 are Cortex-A7 and are clocked at 1.3 GHz.
With Knox and the snapdragon version coming out. What are the realistic chances of getting quality custom ROMs for our awesome tablets.
thoughts?
Snapdragon? The current 2014 has a Snapdragon. Is there another version of the 10.1 coming?
Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk 4
The Note 10.1 2014 only comes with a Snapdragon 800 as far as I know...
The currently released version (WiFi) of the GN10.1 2014 has an octa-core Exynos5. NOT the new Snapdragon. Considering just how much coverage went into the big.LITTLE architecture, an the various enquiries and wariness on the parts of reviewers about the Exynos Chip as compared to the Snapdragon, just how many people DIDN'T know about it?
I mean, it's a MAJOR decision maker/breaker for some people!
My thought exactly. I am considering this tablet but am worried that there will be no development since its exynos and not snapdragon.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
I have seen nothing suggest there's a Snapdragon version coming out.
That said, can someone tell me why that would halt development?
AFAIK Samsung does not release any source code for exynos stuff while Qualcomm does release code for the snapdragon processors. But I could be mistaken.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
Sorry, I thought it as common kmowledge. The wifi models have two quad core processors rather than one snapdragon 800 chip set.
The result is a component developers are not experienced in working with and no available source code (?).
The potential of the dual quad core (octa core) is huge! We just need to get devs on board.

Unfortunately, I don't think the price is going to help :fingers-crossed:
Honestly, The Note is the only one of my devices where I never got rid of TW. Not that I like it, I hate it and will theme it out so it's not so ugly, use a different launcher etc.. but the TW features on the note is what I buy the note for. Especially how deeply integrated the S-pen features are. Sure there are other note taking apps out there (lecture notes.. etc) but I always preferred s-note, and now on the 2014 model even more so, s-note is a lot better now. I think using an AOSP based rom on this type of device is kinda a waste but that's just my opinion. I usually will theme it out to look as much as stock android as I can.. All my other devices I'm constantly flashing stuff on. My old note 10.1 has been running the same rom for about a year. haha

You are right.
As far as the OP goes, I don't think there is any word that a snapdragon version is coming out, is there?
As far as I know, Wifi-only versions (P600) get Exynos while 3G (P603) et 4G (P605) have Snapdragon S800.
I have a 4G version and it clearly has a S800 in it.
Now looking forward to get root and remove most of Samsung bloatware...
NM, delete this.
According to this Engadget review
With the 2014 Note 10.1, you'll find yourself using one of two chips: the 3G and WiFi-only versions come with an octa-core Exynos 5420 chipset built in, while the LTE unit features a 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800.

I wouldn't worry too much....
The previous WiFi version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 was also an Exynos chip, and Development for it seems to be just fine here on XDA.

According to wikipedia, it was available for sampling in Q3 of 2014. But I must be missing something if the year denotes if something is current gen or not. Considering the 808 is often chosen over the 810 for various reasons, what better CPU could there be for the Priv right now?

I would guess it would take a lot for Samsung to let someone else use their CPU, and it would likely be more expensive. Intel devices can do cool stuff like running Windows natively on the Zenfone 2 for example, but Android x86 has its own set of issues.
