She clearly says it's a 1GHz Qualcomm processor, yet the article says it's NVidia Tegra2? Am I missing something?

Watch/listen again: 1:42 she says "the processor is from Qualcomm". I don't know how it can be clearer that it is NOT the Tegra 2. The Optimus 2x has it, yes, but this is not the 2x.

Actually, I believe what she means is the CDMA chip is by Qualcomm and the LTE chip is by LG, which is why she mentions it being a joint effort. Even with that said I would still guess it isn't dual core because they wouldn't leave something like that out.

All I want on Verizon is: 8mp camera with 1.3mp front facing camera. at least 480x800. 4-4.3 inch screen. samsung orion processor or another dual core. 1GB RAM. 4G LTE. DLNA OR HDMI. kickstand! Samsung, LG, HTC, or Moto

i agree with just about all of that. i however would prefer a slightly smaller screen. us gals are interested in carrying these phones as well. i play violin( have lots of finger reach) and still cant one hand text on something like the droid x. just too dang big. lol :)

This will be my next phone if it comes out soon dont get down on the 5MP camera that means nothing at all in picture quality!! how much RAM is in this thing cant find it anywhere maybe i need to look closer!

I find the new crop of phone announced by Verizon very disappointing.
The HTC Thunderbolt, the LG Revolution and the Samsung 4g are single core phones hence no HD video and super apps that require the duel core. The Moto Bionic is balky as a brick and bigger than the Droid X..

So when will we see a phone that is Duel core , LTE 4to 4.5 screen - super display
slim and elegant? From what I understand the current crop will show up in the stores between March and July. So the next crop with the right specks will arrive after that! Just in time to compete with I phone 5!

And one more thing , they all come with Android 2.2 not 2.3 WTF?

20. mmgbmt posted on 10 Jan 2011, 14:03 0 2

2.3 is only for tablets, theres probably going to a new upgrade for it by the time it comes out anyway

Is 3G network even available in the US? I mean, if its not, why do you get the 4G phone releases first then? Will take like 15 years for you to get 4G in all your country.

@husse,

I think you meant 4G. Yes Verizon 4G LTE is covering 1/3 of Americans at this moment. All the big cities are already covered. The whole pop will be entirely covered in 2013.

well i say if not the Bionic or a similarly spec'd Motorola with a keyboard like a Droid 3 then i'd go for this.

only thing though is the chrome bezel..from the experience i've had with chrome bezels it's a real turn off.
