Features and benefits
Powering the newest and most exciting Mobile Internet Devices, Intel® Atom™ processor technology unleashes the best Internet experiences on the go.¹ enabling you to enjoy fast performance, smooth video streaming and playback, and brilliant graphics—all in a powerful and pocketable device.
With devices getting smaller, sleeker, and lighter than ever, you'll be able to choose from a variety of exciting new devices to keep you connected, entertained, informed and productive- and meet the demanding needs of your highly mobile lifestyle.¹
Consumer lifestyles have become more mobile and dependent on needing access to the internet in more places than ever before. Devices are getting smaller and require high performance processors that consume low power. Mobile Internet Devices based on Intel® Atom™ processor technology enable more of everything you love on-the-go:
- Put great performance in the palm of your hand. Based on the latest 45nm process technology, the Intel® Atom™ processor, the fastest processor among sub-3W processors, uses groundbreaking silicon design that packs big performance in a remarkably small space. With features like Hyper-Threading Technology* and Power Optimized Front Side Bus, end users can get the same internet experience they are used to on their PC with faster responsiveness and web page loads, plus the ability to multitask - all in a smaller, more portable form factor.
- Video in More Places. Sharing videos on the web has become increasingly mainstream among end users. With support for more video players and codecs, you are able to view the latest videos with ease. You can also view HD content on your Mobile Internet Device, with support for up to 720p and 1080i HD video formats. This is enabled by the single-chip Intel® System Controller Hub, which features Intel® Clear Video Technology for MIDs, allowing for low power, full-frame, and hardware accelerated video playback.
- Enjoy 3D Graphics Enjoy enhanced user interfaces and visual effects with the high performance, low power graphics engine of the Intel® System Controller Hub featuring support for DX9L and OpenGL which enable a new class of applications for mobile devices, including select PC Games.
- Long battery life keeps you going. The Intel® Atom™ processor is an ultra low-power processor. Along with power saving features in the Intel® System Controller Hub, like Deep Power Down Technology and Intel® Display Power Saving Technology, you can stay connected longer without having to plug in as often.
- Find connections when you need them Connect wirelessly where and when you want-at home, in the office, or on the go, hitting up hotspots around town or around the world. Wireless Connectivity on Mobile Internet Devices is supported in a variety of ways: Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G or WiMAX.²
