http://androidforums.com – My service provider is only selling this phone with the dual core processor, how does this stack up to the quad core?? I've also heard some problems with this phone are constant overheating and a draining battery life. Are these problems only apparent using the quad core?? If I do pick up the dual core, will I have better luck with overheating?? Im new to smartphones and androids, any advice would be great. (General)

Stories similar to Support Dual Core

As everyone knows, the international HTC One X has the NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core processor and to make things work with LTE, they created the HTC One XL that is essentially the same phone, but with the dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4. This is essentially what is available on AT&T, but marketed as the One X, a little confusing I know. Now Samsung did the same thing with their Galaxy S III.

Today most tablets and smartphones on the market have dual core processors on them. But some of them have quad core processors like iphone 5 and Nexus 7. I know dual core has benefits but how does quad core help when you basically can only run one app at a time?

We finally got some official news surrounding the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2‘s availability, and whether or not it will come equipped with a dual-core or quad-core processor. When we first heard about the new slate from Samsung we couldn’t help but think that is wasn’t a very big improvement over the original Galaxy Tab 10.1, sporting only a 1GHz dual-core processor.

iPhone 5: quad core for sure? 45 weeks 2 days ago

Written by: Alex Zaharov-ReuttWith models of the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy SIII sporting dual-core chips with 4G/LTE in the US, but quad-core chips for their 3G models, some are wondering whether Apple’s iPhone 5 will be similarly “core-tailed”, or whether an Apple A6 processor can mix and match quad core with the 4G pedal to the metal – while retaining more than sufficient battery life.

When it

If the latter part of 2012 was about 5 inch dual core smartphones, it's going to be quad core handsets with HD displays in the first half of 2013.

Yesterday at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference, Samsung showed their new Exynos chip, which can come in dual-core and quad-core configurations. Frequencies range from 200 MHz to 1.5 GHz, and it’s 32nm part, which is down from 45nm with the previous chip.

For those of you who think that dual-core is so last year then have I story for you. The video we have here shows the TI dual-core OMAP 5 application processor for mobile devices outpacing the quad-core Tegra 3 processor from Nvidia. For those that don’t know the OMAP 5 sports ARM’s new and improved Cortex-A15 CPU design.

Ramos W41 16 weeks 3 days ago

Have you guys heard of Ramos W41?:):)

It's amazing tablet powered by ACT-ATM7029. Ramos W41 is 9.4 inch 1280X800 IPS Tablet PC with ACT-ATM7029 Quad Core Chipset 1GB DDR3 RAM 16GB Nand Flash Dual Camera 2012 was Dual Core year,now 2013 is Quad Core year. A Dual Core Tablet PC seems out of date,only Quad Core Tablet PC is up to date.

When it comes to multicore processors, if the frequency is rated as 3GHz, does that mean it is 3 GHz per core or 3 GHz divided by the number of cores.

Like in the title, for a 3 GHz dual core, would it be 3 GHz per core or 3 GHz / 2 cores = 1.5 GHz per core?

Thanks for your help.
