Intel's dominance is unmatched when it comes to desktop, server and laptop processors. However, the company is having difficulties in improving its market share for mobile processors found in smartphones, tablets and hybrid machines due to overwhelming competition presented by Qualcomm, MediaTek, Samsung, and many more. In addition to rolling out its fifth-generation Core processors for desktop and laptop computers, Intel is once again attempting to tap into the mobile chipset market, with its 14nm Atom "system on a chip," which the company has codenamed Cherry Trail. 

The new processors are going to be incorporated into smartphones and tablets, and will present improved energy efficiency coupled with raw processing power over its Bay Trail-based Atom chipsets. While processing power and energy efficiency is expected to be seen in Intel's upcoming iteration of chipsets, the company has also planned to incorporate several other technologies to its products to augment the overall mobile experience for the user. 

The Cherry Trail processors will be utilizing the same video architecture as the processors that came before it, maintaining the same fluid performance in 3D games and in high resolution content. With the upgrade presented in the form of improved processing power and energy efficiency, mobile devices' battery backup time will last much longer. 

Intel's 14nm chips will also be able to take advantage of the company's RealSense 3D camera technology to allow for gestures and object recognition. Additionally, the chipset will also feature new LTE-Advanced cellular chips that will be able to deliver Cat 9 download and upload speeds (450 Mbps and 100 Mbps respectively). The first products sporting Intel's advanced chipsets will roll out during the third quarter of 2015. 

When those products are released, then they can be stacked up against the remaining competition to demonstrate how far Intel has come in the smartphone chipset industry.
