damn. the old/current phones are becoming more and more obsolete with each new generation. I remember when I bought the Nokia E61, it was among the best phones for the next several years. and now? the new phones are making the old ones look like they are from the previous century. not cool at all, having in mind that not all carriers in all countries offer attractive prices for their contracts (here in Macedonia they cut off maybe 10 percent from the price).

Weaponised smartphones. It's amazing what the mobile market has done for computing. No longer do people tolerate clunky OS, browser crashes and 10 minutes boot times. These devices are now starting to fulfill technology's awesome liberating potential.

big.LITTLE is meant to increase performance but at the same time help improve battery life by using 2 sets of quad-cores. One for low power and one for higher power.

Mostly something using big.LITTLE. Just like the next exynos rumoured to be in the Galaxy S4. Well, the kraits are gonna be wiped off the market.

Why 8 cores, but why D:
Quad cores are already powerful, why over-do it?
