The first native tablet with Ubuntu would arrive at the end of October

A small Australian company, intermatrix, has given the great surprise in the world of tablets announcing the first native tablet with Ubuntu by the end of the month of October. The news, which could bring joy to all users who are eagerly waiting to get hold of this new mobile operating system for their tablets, has, however, been met with some skepticism by experts.

The new operating system for tablets from Canonical, Ubuntu Touch, has aroused a lot of expectation in a sector where not even the giant Microsoft it is easy for him to make a hole. Although it remains to be seen how this newcomer will do, it seems that at the moment its reception is favorable, trying to integrate the best of the operating systems that exist so far.

As we have already mentionedIn any case, it is evident that there is still a lot of work to be done and the official forecasts indicated that we would not see tablets with this operating system installed at the factory until 2014, although can now be downloaded on devices Nexus and that the list of candidates from other manufacturers continues to grow. The fact that there are ads from a native tablet with Ubuntu By the end of October, therefore, it cannot fail to surprise, especially when it arrives from a small Australian company, practically unknown: intermatrix.

However, experts find even more reasons for skepticism even in their own Technical specifications of the tablet. Intermatrix states that it will have a resolution of 1280 x 800, 1 GB RAM memory and an ARM Cortex-A9 quad-core processor to 1,5 GHz. In Android Authority, for example, they state that it is complicated that with 1 GB RAM memory operation Ubuntu be fluent and remember that Canonical has only mentioned processors Intel x86 y Cortex-A15, so its performance with a Cortex-A9 it could be compromised.

Despite the prevailing skepticism, the truth is that, for now, intermatrix has already opened the work? for the tablet. We will probably have to wait until October to see to what extent the tablet meets expectations.
