Prototype Development Approach

For the first prototype, we are not requesting a completely new motherboard or chipset design. We would prefer to use one of your existing Android hardware platforms where possible and customize the following:

External housing/body
Display configuration where feasible
AL HUDA branding
Boot logo/animation
User interface
Software/application
Buttons and external controls
Packaging concept


The objective is to keep Prototype 1 cost-effective while allowing us to evaluate the physical design, hardware performance and software concept before proceeding to mass production.

Please provide

Kindly advise us on:

Which existing Android platform you recommend for this product
Available display sizes/resolutions suitable for a square or near-square device
Processor/chipset options
RAM and storage options
Battery capacity options
GPS and digital compass availability
Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/4G/5G capabilities
Possibility of developing a customized square housing
Prototype/sample development cost
Estimated prototype lead time
Cost of one prototype including customization
Estimated unit price
MOQ for mass production
Software/UI customization capabilities
Packaging and branding options
Whether you can provide engineering drawings/3D files for approval
Whether an NDA can be signed before detailed technical development
Important

We are currently at the concept and prototype development stage and are looking for a manufacturing partner who can potentially support the project from Prototype → Testing → Certification → Mass Production.

We are particularly interested in a manufacturer who can provide practical advice on achieving the desired premium design while keeping the prototype and eventual production cost commercially reasonable.

I have attached the AL HUDA product concept/design reference for your review.

Please review the concept and let us know whether your factory can undertake this development.

We would appreciate receiving your recommended hardware platform, prototype quotation and estimated development timeline.
