"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.

A phone charger on your desk at work, a phone charger in your car's cigarette lighter socket, a phone charger at home. There's no incentive for manufacturers here.
On the other hand, my battery is always dying on public transport or when I'm travelling and using the phone as a camera.
One can order an external battery online from China for around $US20 that charges said phone via microUSB or the iConnectors.
