Intel delays mass production of Cherry Trail

@ 2015/06/26
Companies that make “white box” tablets are being forced to use Bay Trail T CR for Windows 10 tablets, according to a report by Digitimes Research (DR).

DR believes that Intel won’t be in a position to supply the chips until the end of the third quarter this year and that’s not making the tablet makers very happy.

Microsoft and Intel have still got ambitions in the tablet and smartphone markets, despite spending billions of dollars with little result.

Microsoft is gambling that Windows 10, along with subsidies it is offering manufacturers, will generate extra demand although many feel that it and Intel have missed the bus on both the smartphone and tablet fronts.

DR claims that Intel won’t be able to supply the manufacturers with a reference design for Cherry Trail until the end of September.
