The chipsets, MSM8226 and MSM8626, not only offer quad-core processing and better graphics abilities but are also built on a 28nm manufacturing process that will help increase battery life.
Available in three different configurations, customers can choose a Mac mini with the latest dual-core Intel Core i5 or Intel Core i7 processors, AMD Radeon HD 6630M discrete graphics, or a quad-core Intel Core i7 powered server configuration.
"Quad-core processors offer much faster performance for graphics-intensive activities such as high-definition video playback and high-end gaming as well as enabling the phone to handle multitasking with less effect on the user experience, " said Daniel Gleeson, a research analyst for IHS Screen Digest.
