HTC Edge may be one of the first quad-core smartphones

Htc is just quietly brilliant, and they're gonna proof this once again.

P.S. That profile photo, delete it. Change it to ICS or a little android logo. It doesn't show any respect at all.

did someone die and make you boss? freedom of speech also means the freedom to be offended and to offend.

Its also a play on a very old calvin pissing on xxxxx set of stickers. its probably one of the least offensive things on these boards.

Let's just say, I offend people that offend ios, wp, bb and symbiant. Just because android is better. Ok, you can say that. But the explanations why android is better just suck. You clearly didn't read anything of my link.

I think that every os has it's cons and pros. But this article goes about htc. And I find htc still one of the best phones ever made. Even better then samsung. My opinion ;)

what the hell are you talking about tacohunter?

noone said anything about any OS. I am talking about that picture that YOU think someone else needs to bend to your will for.
I dont need to read your link to know that you need to get over yourself if you think your going to tell others how to run their avatar to suit your needs.. end of story.

just about.not much longer then all the smartphones will be more powerful then my laptop.but my laptop is over 3 years old.its still amazing that they can get that much power into a device that fits into your pocket

A smartphone which is considered "future-proof" doesn't exist.

right? if they do right with Sense 4 then this could be a good turning point for HTC.

17. HTCiscool posted on 07 Nov 2011, 14:53 4 0

Yeh, they finally got it right :) but you're right the previous Sense editions have been rather repetitive.

stop kidding:)...htc don't know how to utilize properly xenon flash.
And it will take time to see first front camera bigger than 2 mpx.

I'm curious...how they will utilize quad core power? Where? What for? And battery remains the same?
This is a joke.

30. snowgator posted on 07 Nov 2011, 16:23 4 0

That's where I was going. ICS isn't even out yet and is the first real software primed for dual core. Are we really pumping out anything software wise that will make this relevant? Or is it just to get people to buy a new phone or fall behind?

44. JGuinan007 posted on 07 Nov 2011, 21:18 0 0

Well when I buy a smart phone I'm stuck with it for 22 months so I want the most cutting edge tech in it at the time I purchase I know in less than a month my phone won't be the best any more but if can be on par till my next upgrade that would be great

technically, its "multi-core" optimized. Once you get past 2 cores the software can run a near infinite amount of cores.. it doesnt need to become quad-core optimized. It already is when it became dual core optimized.

lol.. incrimental upgrades my friend. How I wish we took jumps that large though.. how fun would that be.

51. GoodFella posted on 07 Nov 2011, 21:43 0 0

Hey, the HTC Evo was not so incremental when it was released- it was a powerhouse! I'd love to see something like that get released again. Something that just takes the fire away from everything else.

I agree that quadcore is overkill for the software that is out right now, but in the future, this will be nice. The battery life is going to be rubbish.

Anyway, this will be pretty gnarly!

26. Sackboy117 posted on 07 Nov 2011, 15:24 2 0

Dont forget a HUGE battery life

65. Firedrops posted on 07 Nov 2011, 23:46 0 0

For devices 5" and below, there really is no point pushing further than 720p. The diminishing returns/price of production explode. 720p at 5" is a nice 293 DPI. Even if you were to put that screen 0.1cm away from your eye, you'd have a damn hard time seeing the individual pixel.

There's a fine line between smartphone and computer buddy, and you just passed it.

72. Rejeimha posted on 08 Nov 2011, 09:20 0 0

And a 3000 mAh battery to power the thing in order to get a full day's use out of it.

46. JGuinan007 posted on 07 Nov 2011, 21:22 0 1

You should get the Galaxy Note

i m sure samsung is watchin it ... n they gonna mk sgs III better than anything else out there.......

21. roldefol posted on 07 Nov 2011, 15:06 2 0

Google was essentially saying you only need a 1 Ghz OMAP 4 and 1 GB RAM to run ICS. You don't _need_ quad-core, but I'm sure it'll help!

62. JGuinan007 posted on 07 Nov 2011, 22:33 0 0

yeah they should make it a 5" qhd screen

27. KingKurogiii posted on 07 Nov 2011, 15:28 0 0

not to mention cheaper.

69. remixfa posted on 08 Nov 2011, 06:50 0 0

The Asus transformer 2 is about to drop.. with ICS and tegra3. Consider your prayer... answered! :)

Glad you're comparing this to the best phone

50. JGuinan007 posted on 07 Nov 2011, 21:33 1 0

You mean what your feeble mind considers the best phone for you taco50

53. GoodFella posted on 07 Nov 2011, 21:47 0 0

Hey, Taco has a point. If someone comes on this post (HTC Phone with a Quadcore) and says it will beat the iPhone 5 (when clearly it has nothing to do with the iPhone or Apple at all), then that someone obviously puts the iPhone on a pedestal and thinks it IS a great phone.

Think about it for a second or two...
