Uhhhh…I thought everyone knew. The Tegra 3 has *5* cores; not 4. The 5th core is ultra-ultra-ultra low power. For the 99.99% of the time that you phone is not running an application which demands a lot of power (like a game) the rest of the time it uses just this single super-low power core. This allows Tegra 3 phones and tablets to go a very long time in ‘idle’ mode’ without needed to be recharged. When it is running high-power applications, like games, it is still more energy efficient than a dual core; simply because of progress made in the technology.

So, yeah, a quadcore *can* use a lot less power..if that Quadcore is a tegra processor from NVIDIA.

P.S. And, yes, I do work for NVIDIA, but this is just to get the facts straight. Do a little research next time.

There was an update in Nova Launcher to let you use the home button as “voice search”. I had added the search button as well until I found this feature. *press “home” for default screen then again for “voice search”*

the quad core is not going to make the battery last especially with that tegra 3 the phone has to be with the thickness of the nokia 5800 and i doubt that this battery has to be something new but i havent heard about progres in battery making they only care about glass

Get the razr maxx – 3300mAh battery with 21 hours of talk time…compared to 8 hour talk time on iphone 4s.

Hmm…let’s see. Common sense? The fact that the dual cores suffer from horrible battery life? What’s your proof? Some sheep-like devotion to android? Yea…

Actually several phones, including the Rezound already beat it.
