Well, that seems to be the best answer of them all.

To TS, it's not really about "iPhone 5" vs Galaxy S3. It's actually down to "The next iPhone" vs "The next Galaxy Note". Here's why.

Quadcore Cortex A9 wont deliver much benefit for most existing apps. Scaling threads on mobile platform isn't always something easy to be dealt by apps, even on desktop the same dilemma is being faced. Hence, not much performance gain will be achieved in most cases.

Well again, why should wait for either Note 2 or iPhone 5/6/whatever? Note 2 gonna be based on dualcore Cortex A15, of which has been told by ARM that it should give better performance by default compared to a quadcore Cortex A9 SoC of the same clock. Knowing Samsung-Apple relationship in chip fabrication, Apple gonna use architecture of the same scale of Samsung's at the same point of time (albeit with different design). Heck, Apple even used Samsung's 32nm High-K process for chips on Apple TV3 first, long before Samsung used the same process on their own lineup. So it's possible that Apple's going dualcore Cortex A15 too.

btw, in the meantime TS should feel free to experiment with existing phones such as Galaxy S3. It's not like people should stick with one single phone for his lifetime. biggrin.gif

You don't like widgets? Turn it off. On, if you like it.
