I am regretting buying this cheap phone, it locks up quite a bit, reboots itself, on shut down it will not complete the task and I am always have to take the battery out to unfreeze the phone what a piece of crap

516 should be good my droidx2 has 516, i have go launcher and it runs perfect. We need to keep in mind that if you put 200 application in your phone, it will be slow

I love it how there is a tethering plan for a laptop that is $40, but with the webtop you can just use your normal data plan…

Yeh…but not with a 4.5inch display. Although I will be holding out for the Vigor unless something else pops up..which I’m sure will..

That would be the upcoming Vigor, though ICS will likely come as an upgrade, as i believe it’s supposed to ship with Gingerbread.

Keyword future.

We’re talking about AVERAGE consumers here. Don’t tell me that some 85 year old Grandma who bought a smartphone to just check facebook and txts needs more then 512MB of RAM currently. Hell you could do this on a phone with 12MB of RAM.

That’s what I just don’t get. You have these people who can barely use their dumbphones going to a smart phone and people are like… OMG you need to get this dual core CPU 1GB of RAM phone. Cause you’re such a freaking power user! You know running Facebook alone requires dual core CPU power! And those text messages! OH BOY you’ll need LOTS of RAM for them!

Hell, I’m sure a the OG Droid running stock ROM would be good enough for them.

Would you give a house mom who just checks emails and facebooks an 4GHz i7, 8GB DDR3-2000, 2x 6800 AMD CrossFired rig? SURE in the future we’ll need those specs. But it doesn’t mean she needs them now.

As far as future goes. Specs don’t guarantee shit any more. We’re seeing phones with 256MB of RAM getting GB OFFICIALLY. Android is a flexible OS and was meant to be able to go on any device. Though this is Linux in nature. The reason why most phones don’t get OS updates all comes down to:

1.) They didn’t sell well
2.) Successors came out and there’s no need to upgrade last years model
3.) They want other phones to sell

We’re even seeing that new HTC Sense that was “dual core” required coming on solo core CPUs.

Most all of the 512 these days is used by overlays, future OSs, memory intensive apps, push processes, alternative launchers and more…not a lot of breathing room. As we progress into the near future it will be harder and harder for phones to perform with last years tech specs.

When is Verizon getting a 4.5, 1.2/1.5 GHz dual core, 4G LTE phone from HTC (just my preferred phone company..nothing against MOTO..Samsung ..& LG ) with the new ice cream sandwich OS….
