ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN-code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) A portable electronic apparatus, with measurements of 7 Γ 60 Γ 110 mm and a weight of 100 g, consisting of the following main components in a single plastic housing: β a colour LED display with touch screen with a diagonal measurement of the screen of 8,9Β cm (3,5 inches) and a resolution of 960 Γ 640 pixels, β a central processing unit, β a RAM memory of 256 MB, β a storage capacity of 32 GB, β a module for wireless connection to other apparatus and to the internet, β a rechargeable lithium battery, β a loudspeaker, β a microphone, and β a camera for capturing video and still images. It has the following interfaces: β a connector to charge the apparatus and to connect it to other apparatus such as an automatic data processing (ADP) machine, and β a 3,5Β mm jack plug. The apparatus allows the user, inter alia, to connect to the internet, to download, execute and modify software applications, to receive and send e-mails, to play games, and to download, record and reproduce music, video and photos. 8471Β 30Β 00 Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, note 3 to Section XVI, note 5(A) to Chapter 84 and by the wording of CN codes 8471 and 8471Β 30Β 00 . The apparatus is designed for performing two or more complementary or alternative functions within the meaning of note 3 to Section XVI (data processing, communication over a wireless network, sound and video recording and reproducing, capturing video and still images, displaying still and video images). Due to the objective characteristics of the apparatus, in particular its capability of downloading, storing modifying and executing programs, its principal function is data processing (see also the HS Classification Opinions 8471.30/2, 3 and 4). The other functions are considered secondary. Consequently the apparatus is to be classified under CN code 8471Β 30Β 00 as a portable automatic data-processing machine, weighing not more than 10 kg, consisting of at least a central processing unit, a keyboard and a display.
