Tegra 3 Quad-Core To Be Unveiled At MWC

One of the big changes in smartphones this year will be improved chipsets with NVIDIA Tegra 2 having already grabbed many a headline. Some of the hottest devices going out this year will be packing Tegar 2 dual-core chips.

Well the rumour mill has thrown up the possibility of NVIDIA introducing the Tegra 3 quad-core at MWC next month. The rumour is based off a comment made by Mike Rayfield, the general manager for Tegra:

"I am going to come pretty close to my cadence of a launch every year. It will be in production around the same time as my competitors first dual-cores will."

The Tegra 2 was launched way back in January last year so an MWC announcement this year is pretty much on the nose for a year later. Of course this is just speculation based on a single quote so treat with the usual skepticism for now.
