It would utilize a big/little cpu setup sorta like the Samsung Exynos.
would anyone else be interested in something like that ? does such a device already exist ?
There's supposed the be a phone that has an LCD and and eInk screen. Perhaps someone will do a tablet.

My hope is that a display technology comes along that has the speed of LCD with the low power and readability of e-ink. Mirasol was a bit of a disappointment. Perhaps Liquavista will prove better, if it ever sees the light of day in a commercial product. Or there's the reflective LCD from Japan Dissplay that uses static RAM cells at each pixel to reduce power on static displays, currently available for watches.
