San Diego, CA, 3rd September, 2012 – VIA Telecom, Inc., the only alternative CDMA baseband solution provider, today announced that its CDMA 3G EV-DO Rev A baseband chip has been chosen to power the Coolpad Quattro 4G smartphone, available now through MetroPCS. This is the first smartphone entry in to US Market from Yulong Telecommunication, a professional provider of integrated solutions for smartphones, mobile data platform systems and value-added business operations in China.
The Coolpad Quattro 4G phone is designed to maximize the speed of the latest MetroPCS 4G network while relying on its existing 3G network through the VIA Telecom baseband chip when its 4G network is unavailable, thus providing seamless voice and data coverage for its customers who are always on the move. The Coolpad Quattro 4G also sports a 1GHz dedicated Cortex A8 CPU for fast Internet browsing and streaming media at blazing-fast 4G LTE speeds.
“Yulong Telecommunication and VIA Telecom have enjoyed a successful partnership in the China market and we are extremely happy to have the VIA Telecom CBP7.x CDMA EVDO platform help successfully launch their first Smartphone into the US Market,” said Dr. Ker Zhang, CEO of VIA Telecom, Inc. “This is yet another key milestone and validation for VIA Telecom who has also been supporting Tier-1 OEMs like Samsung to launch its 3G and 4G devices into Verizon Wireless, Sprint, US Cellular and other key US CDMA Carriers, bringing competition, cost benefits and technology choices to a market that is still mostly dominated by a single technology source.”
