Chuwi Add Another S to P7eos -> P7eosS
I don’t know what more to be astonished by, how Chuwi goes about naming their players or the fact that this 5.0″ player costs less than USD$60 and comes with 8GB of memory. The P7eosS is very similar, in fact totally the same albeit the screen size, to the P7eos. This variant will have a 5.0″ screen, run on a telechips processor which will be able to decode videos that are upto and possible even above 1080p, it does also have HDMI out. Players like this are pretty much kings of video playback, as they can support just about any popular used video format (AVI, Divx, RMVB, MKV, TS, WMV9, H.264, H.263). The player looks to be out very soon, but i am sure it won’t be long before Chuwi goes and add another S for the 7.0″ version of this player.
Maddness.

The iToo M3HD seems to be very similar to the Cube B33HD i reported yesterday, two share the sames specs and even form factor. It would be safe to assume that the two players are using the same media processor and probably have similar user interfaces.

Looks like Ainol has released a small set of photos of their new upcoming V9000HDA model. This new player does run on a Sochip processor, but it would be the first Sochip based player to be touch screen based.
I can’t really say that Ainol has done anything new with the body design, but i have to admit that it does have a nice simplistic look to it. Ainol have also released a promo page showing off the UI of the V9000HDA, lets hope the renderings look as good in real life.
