Pick the modern phone's single killer feature: 4G or dual-core?


Pick the modern phone's single killer feature: 4G or dual-core?
Can you imagine the perfect world? One where true geeks roam around in solar-powered cars and communicate with their devices only with their thought. Well, maybe yours is slightly different, but there is one thing we have in common – we're not living in it. In the current reality of things, a simple feature combination like an 4G dual-core phone seems extremely hard to achieve. The Motorola DROID BIONIC was on the right track, but plagued with problems it has been pushed and probably completely replaced with a new model.

At the same time, dual-core devices pack some impressive chips, bringing undeniably cream of the crop performance. Look at Samsung Galaxy S II's benchmark results if you don't want to take our word for it. But compare them with a comparatively modest device like the 4G LTE-enabled HTC ThunderBolt, the Samsung DROID Charge or the LG Revolution and you start hesitating. The latter reach whopping download speeds of above 5Mbps on a regular basis.
