The reference Red Ridge tablet should be around 8.5 mm thin (0.33-inch), weigh under 1.5 pounds (less than 680 grams), pack a 28Whr battery that should last some 9 plus hours and it will feature a 10-inch 200 nits panel. Intel claims an impressive standby time of more than 30 days which sounds quite great. Intel also claims best in class flash as well as connected standby support.
Before we go any further just remind you that the reference Oak Trail Atom Z670 platform had 6+ hours battery life, was supposed to weigh less than 1.5 pounds, all packed in a sub-15mm chassis, almost twice as much as Red Ridge. It shared the 30-day standby claim.
Intel Red Ridge is the reference Medfield tablet
