Why would anyone need a dual core phone? I've never once thought that my phone was slow. In fact, I've considered undervolting and underclocking to improve on battery life.

Exactly!

But dual core sounds good, innit?

Pointless unless there's going to be some amazing, cpu intensive apps to utilise the power, and even then, I can't see Pixar wanting to render Toy Story 4 on an effing phone.


I can't really think of any app I could use on a phone that I can't right now. Sat Nav is probably the most intensive thing I use and it works perfectly.

As a phone, it's not necessary. But the increasing use of HDMI and USB host mode opens up all sorts of stuff, like using it as a portable media centre. Then you'll want it to be able to decode the same movies your PC can, and play decent games on a big screen. Or using it as a portable "netbook" (running a proper browser, office suite, etc).

Personally speaking I can't wait for the Tegra 3 later this year, that's supposedly 3-5 times faster than the current fastest, and I've got all sorts of uses planned for that. I can see my laptop getting used much less.

I've just bought the Desire HD, so anything more powerful is unnecessary. That is until I get a dual core, then it'll be the bee's knees! :lol:
 
Ooo, a new phone, your social standing will rocket.
Make sure you show people what it can do, we always love it, it is great.
Get ready for lots of sex and make sure when talking about it, you say it's full name and spec rather then just " phone!"
 
I've got one and its great.does everything I need it to anyway

Good, as mine arrives on Thursday :lol:

:lol:

To be honest I just wanted to ensure it wouldn't break as much as my current one!

That tends to afflict iGadget users more than any other.

'I'm just going to text such and such on my iPhone!'

:roll:
