Chipmaker Nvidia is reportedly working on a compact tablet that
will bear the “Shield” branding.
According to a document filed at the Global Certification
Forume or GCF (a specific body that provides certification for companies that
manufactures products with 3G technologies) the slate will be marketed as the
SHIELD tablet.
Previous rumours have indicated that the tablet might have a
7.9-inch display with the company’s new Tegra K1 processor. And unlike Nvidia’s
current slate, the Tegra
Note 7, the Shield tablet will most likely be targeting gamers. In fact,
there have been speculations that Nvidia will bundle the tablet with gaming
accessories similar to those of Razer’s Edge.
At the moment, there’s very little information about this
alleged Shield Tablet but there's already a placeholder in Nvidia's TegraZone webpage, so we’ll just have to wait and see for more announcements from Nvidia.
