Mediatek MT2621

The MT2621 is a dual mode processor that supports NarrowBand IoT R14 radio technology as well as GSM/GPRS connectivity. This means that a single SIM and antenna covers both networks.

The MT2621 is a single-core ARM7 processor clocked at 260MHz with 160KB + 4MB of embedded storage. MediaTek says applications can be built using an easily customizable Linux-based OS.

There is also support for LCM, camera, and audio AMP interfaces for devices with sight and sound, in addition to Bluetooth 4.2 for connectivity to other devices.
