Very excited to see how Sony performs on its own. Betting within a couple of years, Sony will be challenging for top Android performer.

If that is beating the Galaxy Nexus shouldn't the Rezound be getting around the same score?

Could be if only HTC could optimize their chips the way SONY does right now. . .
