SmartQ V5 MID strives to be relevant, may succeed on some level

Thu, Oct 22, 2009

Not to be confused with the SmartQ 5 (how could you ever, right?), the SmartQ V5 MID is essentially a V7 with a less spacious screen. Within, you’ll find a 600MHz ARM11 processor, 256MB of DDR2 memory, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, 2GB of internal storage and an SD expansion slot. There’s also USB 2.0 connectivity, an HDMI output good for shooting out material at up to 1080p, a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack and a 4.3-inch touchscreen (800 x 480). You’ll also find a format support list longer than your latest cellphone bill, though both a price and release date have remained elusive thus far. Here’s hoping it’s cheap enough to matter.
