"Intel and Qualcomm just announced their roadmaps for mobile System on a Chip at this year's Mobile World Congress.
Intel presented performance numbers of their Merrifield SoC, a dual-core Silvermont based SoC that's effectively the phone version of Bay Trail, with some carefully chosen benchmarks that compared it to Apple's A7 SoC and Qualcomm's Snapdragon 800 series. Meanwhile, Qualcomm revealed future 64-bit Snapdragons for its mid-tier Snapdragon series. The Snapdragon 610 and 615 will arrive in Android smartphones in Q4 of this year and are four and eight core implementations of ARM's Cortex A53."

I'm not a robot like you. I don't like having disks crammed into me... unless they're Oreos, and then only in the mouth.

That's one of the main reasons why I refuse to get a smart phone... My dumb phone (Samsung Intensity II for the tactile qerty keyboard) gets a weeks worth of life out of a single charge, easy. When I have a computer at home and at the office, I just don't see any need for anything but a basic phone with voice and text. Now get off my lawn!!

Hold out as long as you can, because once you take the plunge, it's hard to go back to a feature phone. I wonder if you get the same benefits [dev.soylentnews.org] from quitting smartphones as you do from quitting smoking.
