only I doubt something about the quality of signal reception. On WM8650 with Android 2.2 installed - great.ĪT:Youtube? Flash 10? Great! Kokraz was planning to connect a smartbook to a Wi-Fi home point. The picture is just amazing.ĪBOUT:On WM8505 - no way. If you overtake the sound in stereo, then everything will be fine.ĪT:Then what's the catch of this hardware decoding?ĪBOUT:The joke is to watch, for example, video from Youtube in HD and absolutely without brakes. can you watch DVDRips on it?ĪBOUT:You can, but only watch :), because there is no support for AC3 format (6-channel sound). And under WinCE and under Android there is fulloffice applications.ĪBOUT:All smartbooks perfectly reproduce mp3, regardless of the chipset and firmware (WinCE / Android).ĪT:As for the hardware video decoding up to 720p on WM8650, it seems to be understandable. It works well emulators consoles, with little or no brakes go Angry Birds, Treasures of Montezuma, Farm Frenzy and the like.ĪT:And office documents have the ability to view / edit?ĪBOUT:Yes. A few toys like "Klondiasc", it is not necessary to rely on more. It is better to pay about 5-10 dollars for a more productive WM8650, with which there are no problems.ĪT:And how are things going with the games?ĪBOUT:On WM8505 - no way.

It threatens By flashing a smartbook with a chipset 3 revisions with firmware from revisions 1 and 2, it will stop booting from the built-in USB flash drive.įortunately, to solve this problem, there is my version of the firmware Windows CE 6.0 for WM8505 revision 3 (there is no Android).ĪT:Hoo-go-shechi, so how do you choose the right smartbook?ĪBOUT:Very simple. The main difference is that the Chinese, trying once again to minimize the cost of producing smartbooks, replaced the more expensive and fast Nand-memory, which is in revisions 1 and 2, with a "stupid" soldered USB-flash drive in revision 3. what is it and what is the threat?ĪBOUT:That's right, there are 3 revisions of WM8505. Plus, there is hardware video decoding up to 720p.ĪT:I heard somewhere that the WM8505 chipset has several versions / revisions. WM8650 has a processor frequency of about 650 MHz and 256 MB of RAM. Supports Windows CE 6.0 and Android 1.5 / 1.6.Ģ. WM8505 has a processor frequency of 300 MHz and 128 MB of RAM.

Mostly, smartbooks are made in China.ĪT:What is the difference between smartbooks built on WM8505 and WM8650 chipsets?ġ.

ABOUT:The term "smartbook" is increasingly referred to as computers, representing a kind of laptop, only built on hardware and having operating systems more typical of smartphones and GPS navigators (Android, Windows CE).
