NVIDIA Shows Off Ice Cream Sandwich on the ASUS Transformer Prime [Video]
Wondering when we’d see the first piece of hardware running Ice Cream Sandwich and which piece of hardware would be running it? NVIDIA has blessed us all with a quick video giving us a quick glimpse of the latest version of Android on one of the most highly anticipated Android tablets of the holiday season – the ASUS Transformer Prime.
NVIDIA showcases a few different things, including the new folder features in Ice Cream Sandwich, 1080p HD video playback on the Prime as well as a demo of Riptide GP that’s been optimized for the quad-core Tegra 3 processor inside.
What NVIDIA is impressed about is how fast they were able to get Android 4.0 up and running on the Transformer Prime. They state that they got the code on November 14th – just like everyone else – and had it going by November 16th.
And more than it’s running, it’s actually running really well and smooth despite how early it is. This is great news for anyone looking to pick the tablet up as it will assure that you’ll get Android 4.0 soon after launch, if not right when it does launch. Check out the video above. [via NVIDIA]
