SIMCom's SIM8950X series consists of mid-range Android Smart Modules (44.1 × 45.6 × 2.8 mm, LCC+LGA), based on a Qualcomm eight-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor running at 1.8 GHz. They support 4K@30fps display with simultaneous dual-screen capability and a camera up to 24 MP. The form factor is identical to the SIM8905X (entry-level) and SIM8970X (high-end with AI) series—allowing for upgrades or downgrades without a new PCB. Note: Check the exact LTE category with SIMCom depending on the variant.
Main features
- 4K@30fps display with simultaneous dual-screen support: two screens side by side for dual-display POS terminals, cockpits, and operator interfaces.
- Camera with up to 24 MP or 13 MP + 13 MP: dual-camera configuration for machine vision and identification applications.
- 1.8 GHz octa-core processor: performance falls between the SIM8905X (entry-level) and the SIM8970X (high-end with AI).
- SIMCom standard LCC+LGA format, 44.1×45.6 mm: identical to the SIM8905X and SIM8970X—a product line change without requiring a new PCB.
- Dual SIM: Simultaneous management of two carriers or connectivity profiles.
