Found this at the Chinese BBS:

SICK!!! Freakin awesome, Is there a high ersoloution or can anyone read all those chip numbers for me

LikeM8 · 02-20-2008

Hello,

Thanks you for this picture, its seems that this motherboard does not have 3G/UMTS module fonction???
What do you think about?

Can somone translate

I labled them all for you

1-18

Also , No sign of DVB-T chip , but i can see 3 antennas , 1 Wifi 1 GSM 1??? (I think bluetooth dosnt need a large antenna and the orange bit printed onto the PCB is bluetooth antenna)

Edit:
BTW , Thats not very vell organised atall. And I was hoping for a seperate GPU from the CPU , If there were seperate CPU/GPU tv output could be a half decent resoloution. Also having to drive the Devices LCD (720X480) with iphone like effects , is gonna really stress that CPU , Hmm , I hope they havnt lowerd the resoloution.

thanks for the picture now we can see a little what they put on in his heart!!

i wait too for the translation please!

LikeM8 · 02-20-2008

I think the function numbered 16, should be the 3G one???

If it is exact, very good news!!!

toma · 02-20-2008

yeaaaaaaaah wifi :D

lite · 02-20-2008

Well Number 4 (The headphone jack has 5 pins , which indicates compatibility for a remote contol aswell as microphone and headphones on the same line)

Not if it has this CPU: Samsung launches new mobile processor with video and 3D acceleration | NordicHardware

Samsung has announced a new mobile processor for smartphones and navigators that will hit the market in Q3. The chip is called S3C6410 and contains a 667MHz ARM processor with hardware acceleration of video (H.264, MPEG-4 and VC-1) and 3D graphics. The 65nm processor have been designed with support for several different kinds of memory, among other both flash and DRAM. Samsung announced the new chip at the opening of Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The chip can record video at 640x480px and play back video at the same time. This makes it possible to use a single chip for video conferences and regular video calls. To improve bandwidth and reduce lag due to heavy loads, Samsung has fitted the chip with dual RAM ports. The chip can be used with practically every major mobile device operating system on the market, and it shouldn't take too long before we see the first devices sporting Samsung's new chip.
Apple has been using Samsung's previous ARM processors and we wouldn't be surprised if S3C6410 will end up in future iPhones and iPods.

Hope Meizu beats Apple on this one

Damn , Please use the S3C6410 in the device meizu , I cant make out the chip markings on that CPU , but it sure dosnt look like S3C6410

here is another analysis for this pic

This is a larger one with higher contrast. I hope it useful for u to see the details clearlier.

By the way, the CPU used is a SAMSUNG one. However, I cannot make which one it is.

nice2know_u · 02-20-2008

According to Chinese BBS, it's the 6410

Traps · 02-20-2008

According to what was said here, the CPU is the 6410.

EDIT: oops.. sorry, nice2know_u, didn't see your post before I posted this..

DusL · 02-20-2008

Is that a front-cam? Can't really be a back-cam, judging from the non-existent hole/lookthough to the back of the device. Unless that black spot is the cam itself and i'm not seeing it. Does that perhaps mean 3G?

About the CPU, how could it be a 6410?? Perhaps an early released preview sample, but I can't image Samsung mass producing it specially for Meizu as it's own mass production-scheme remains Q3? No way the M8 can come out sooner if it truely is a 6410!

EDIT: Cant they for once, just once make life easy for us?
What's with the unreadable ingravings if you could just show it to us like this?

nice2know_u · 02-20-2008

This looks more like the front part of the machine to me, because you can see the display's frame in the camera hole.

lite · 02-20-2008

Yeah this is the front part of the machine , I mean infront of this PCB will be the battery and Back cover...

Because there is no screen connector it shows the screen is on the other side.

6410 610 WOOOH

Thats brill

Eh , No memory onboard , Unless its on the other side... Also , there are no DVB-T chips Genrally for a tv tuner there is a large 5/3 pin rectanguar chip

Nice post...

Even tho its an old pic- its nice to have it translated.

Im personally still gonna wait until CeBIT for any more news ( rather then rumours)

good post tho
