UNISOC has announced a new chipset for smartwatches. The UNISOC W307 was unveiled yesterday and it comes with a bunch of features including an integrated 4G multi-mode modem.

Built on TSMC’s 28nm HPC+ process, the UNISOC W307 is said to be based on an “ultra-low-power architecture design”. The chipmaker says the package area is 30% smaller than that of the last generation, which brings an improvement in performance, connectivity, intelligence, and power consumption.

Other features of the processor include HD video calling, sub-meter high precision positioning, and a highly-integrated 4G full-network.

There is no info on when the processor will appear in a commercial device neither is there any news of which brands have signed up for it.

UNISOC’s chipsets are used in various products from brands including Nokia, Xiaomi, Hisense, and Lava. For example, its UNISOC 8521W chipset is found in the Xiaomi Mi Kids Watch 4C that was announced last month.
