While the One X may be HTC's beast of a flagship device, the One S is not far behind. It's packing a new Snapdragon S4 processor into one of the most solidly built phones I've ever put my paws on.
Oh man oh man oh man, we're live in Midtown Manhattan, waiting with bated breath, hoping to check out the new Motorola RAZR. Wait, why are we liveblogging this? A few reasons.
This morning Motorola threw up a teaser page for a new phone being revealed tomorrow. Droid-Life did a little sleuth work and pieced together none other than the very svelte RAZR reboot with Droid branding. Looks sharp, indeed.
It's funny, the way that Motorola keeps awkwardly scraping away at the future of computing. The Atrix was a phone with a dual-core processor-like your laptop!—that also turned into a laptop. The Droid Bionic is the next step—a dual-core transforming thing of a phone, but it pulls down real internet from the sky.
A Samsung rep has been caught claiming that they are "planning to release a 2GHz dual-core CPU-equipped smartphone by next year," adding that "this product will have the data processing capacities of a regular PC." Not only does Samsung plan on using these chips in their own smartphones, they're also hoping to sell…
Don't want to pay 3D tax for HTC's Evo 3D? You'll be wanting the Sensation then, which is HTC's new worldwide flagship phone. With its sculptured, curved unibody aluminum body, it's also one of HTC's thinnest handsets at 11.54mm.
This morning, both Qualcomm and Vodafone slipped up and let specs fly early on the HTC Sensation, which is expected to be announced later today. First, Qualcomm confirmed the phone would have a dual-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon chip, and then Vodafone dished the rest of the specs out on a product page:
Over the past year, Qualcomm has added a dose of glamor to chipsets, with many of our commenters regularly lambasting manufacturers for not choosing Snapdragon for their products. Those arguments look set to become even more regular, now Qualcomm's confirmed quad-core Snapdragons are on their way, for at least 12x the…
It's been beaten to market by Nvidia and its astonishingly rapid deployment of the Tegra 2 processor in pretty much everything with a screen, now Samsung is ready to start shouting about its own dual-core mobile processor—which it's decided to rename "Exynos". Here's how the marketing people came up with that:
RIM's Co-CEO Mike Lazaridis said in an interview with PCMag that while "the multicore platform is currently perfect for tablets," BlackBerry just isn't ready to jump into the dual-core smartphones pool alongside LG, Samsung, Motorola et al. He cited "battery life, size, weight, thickness and cost" as reasons for…
If these specs are to be believed, the Thunderbolt will be HTC's first dual-core phone (with a 1.2GHz MSM8960 processor), and will contain an 8MP rear-facing camera and 5MP forward-facing camera.
A team of computer researchers have managed to squeeze an incredible 1000 separate cores into a new form of CPU, resulting in what they expect to be a 20-fold increase in current performance.
Now every man and his donkey has a Snapdragon chip in their smartphones, it's time for Qualcomm to look past the 1.2GHz speeds and bring us a 1.5GHz dual-core. It's on its way, from late this year/early next year.
AMD's making a strong budget play today, releasing its 3.2GHz Phenom II dual core desktop processor for under $100.

Qualcomm's current 1GHz Snapdragon is the muscle that makes the Nexus One so fantastically speedy, but Qualcomm isn't sitting on their laurels—they just announced two new chips that are going to power the next great mobile devices.
Details for Intel's new quad- and dual-core i7 and i5 chips have leaked in the form of a roadmap, so we've got some excellent specifics, including release dates and prices.

It's a desktop chip, with a 533MHz frontside bus and based on the 45nm process, though there's no info on its clock speeds yet. It'll be compatible…
The latest entry into the UMPC market first stirred-up by the Eee PC is this new ultra-light from Raon Digital. It's beefy inside despite its tiny size, packing a dual-core CPU—AMD Turion—which, according to the makers, is a first. It looks barely bigger across than its 7-inch screen (with 1024 x 600 pixels), but…
