Tegra 3-Based Smartphones to Start Shipping in Q1 2012




This year’s Mobile World Congress, set to kick off on February 27th in Barcelona, Spain, is expected to bring to the spotlight the first smartphones in the world to pack quad-core application processors. 

Rumors on what these devices would include in terms of hardware have already emerged. Official confirmation on their specs is pending. 

One thing that is certain, however, is that such handsets will make an appearance at the event. Nvidia has already sent out invitations to the launch, promising great devices powered by its Tegra 3 quad-core application processor. 

What remains to be seen, of course, is when these devices will start emerging on shelves, and what price tags they will feature. 

Apparently, we might not have to wait too long to see the first Tegra 3-based smartphones landing in user’s hands. 

In fact, Reuters suggests that they would be set to become commercially available within weeks of the official launch at MWC 2012, before the end of the first quarter of the current year.

This means that March is set to bring these quad-core smartphones to the market in a variety of countries around the world, though no details on this have been officially unveiled yet. 

Some of the Android smartphones that have already been rumored to be on their way to shelves with a Tegra 3 application processor inside include LG’s X3, along with HTC’s One X, and a Huawei device. 

Moreover, in its press release announcing the financial results for the last year, Nvidia mentions a Fujitsu smartphone that features the CPU and which runs under Android 4.0 "Ice Cream Sandwich."

Along with these smartphones, there will also be a series of quad-core enabled tablet PCs launched at MWC with Android on board. The first such devices have already been made official, and one of them, the Asus Transformer Prime, is already shipping to consumers.
