MANILA, May 29, 2014 – Local mobile brand Starmobile recently received the Outstanding Leadership in Vertical Design Win award at the 2014 Intel Solutions Summit (ISS) in Singapore. The award acknowledges Starmobile’s recent collaboration with Intel to launch the ENGAGE 9i, the country’s first Intel® Atom™ processor-powered full high definition tablet, early this year. The win signifies the country’s growing presence in designing mobile devices with Intel architecture.

The Starmobile ENGAGE 9i runs on a 2GHz dual core Intel® Atom™ Z2580 processor and 2GB of RAM that offers low power consumption while delivering amazing performance for productivity. The tablet also sports the Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology, which uses processor resources more efficiently, enabling multiple threads to run on each core.

We are grateful for Intel’s trust and support and we’re certain that this award for the ENGAGE 9i is just the start of one of the greatest partnerships in the mobile industry,” said Starmobile President Michael Chen.

According to Intel, the nominees for the category were selected based on the innovative nature of the design win, influence in the industry, and long-term impact in the mobile space, among others.

“Intel is proud to be in partnership with a local game changer who shares its vision of raising the profile of the country in tablet design. Intel and Starmobile are working together to make technology more accessible to Filipinos,” said Intel Philippines Country Manager Calum Chisholm.
