The next Nvidia Shield tablet could be a 2-in-1

Nvidia may be working on an updated Nvidia Shield tablet, and it could be a 2-in-1 device that can switch between desktop and desktop modes, according to Nvidia. The XDA Developers code found in the latest Shield Experience software. Nvidia's Shield TV set-top boxes and the latest version show a new feature called "NvDtExp", which the XDA developers theorize as the Nvidia desktop experience. It first appeared in the Shield Experience builds in December 2018, and it just got noticed. Knowing that the company has updated the software of its tablets now stopped for a year (if not more), and that it refers to a product called "Mystic", the publication deduces that "Mystic" is a new tablet in the course of development, designed to exploit this feature. The feature appears to switch between three different UI modes: dynamic, tablet, and desktop. The XDA developers were unable to explore the desktop experience and switch between modes (their code supposedly checks if the device being used is a "mystique"). However, they did mention the visibility of the Start menu and the "mouse rollback control" for the desktop user interface. A more traditional window appearance in "desktop" mode. Logically, "dynamic" can be a hybrid between the "Tablet" and "Desktop" user interface layouts. The code also suggested that "Mystic" would automatically switch to "Desktop" if a keyboard was connected. A new product... or a past "mystical" idea would be Nvidia's first new device other than its Shield set-top boxes, as the company has discontinued its Shield laptop, tablet, and Tegra Note 7. If XDA admits that Product Tips on Shield TV versions may be out of date, give a few clues: Last year's source code suggests that "Mystic" has a 13,5-inch (3000 x 2000) LCD screen. It's big enough for a tablet (the largest iPad is 12,9-inches), suggesting to XDA that it's more likely a 2-in-1 device. that the original Shield tablet used Nvidia's Tegra X1 chip, which also powers Nintendo. The "Mystic" could use the more advanced Tegra X2, or, as newer code indicates, the Tegra Xaviar processor that Nvidia is developing for autonomous vehicles and computer technology using the advanced X2. ; AI. Which is in development - well, we'll have to wait and see. Nvidia declined to comment on XDA in "Mystic" or the Desktop Experience code, opting instead for a standard statement. The post reprinted a statement received after discovering the code referring to a new remote control and possible gamepad for Shield TV since March. You could read: "It is quite common to see code bases of different concepts in code bases. These references persist even when the concept is unlikely to go into production. We can't tell which code names refer to active versus inactive concepts because they can be fluid. However, I can confirm that none of the code names below refer to publicly released products.
