Nvidia’s Tegra 3 system-on-a-chip for smartphones and tablets is getting a bit long in the tooth, but the company still hasn’t officially announced when its successor, an SoC codenamed “Wayne,” will be available in shipping products. We expect an official announcement soon—perhaps even at Nvidia’s press conference at CES—but for now we’re still piecing together information from older announcements and alleged leaks.
One such leak appeared this week, courtesy of Chinese-language site ChipHell. If it’s legitimate (and it does appear to line up with information we already knew), it points to Wayne being a powerful SoC best suited for high-end tablets, but also a good fit for small, inexpensive ARM-based laptops or desktops. What we know so far paints a remarkably complete picture of what Wayne looks like, what it will be good at, and just how much better it will be than Tegra 3.
