As somebody else on here quite rightly put it, companies need to stop worrying about the hardware specs and work on software more.
The galaxy S3 is so smooth they could release another 2-3 major iterations of Android on that hardware at least and add a ton more features.
All about the profit..

That's always been the argument for the apple app store..
Maybe before. Now it's about who gets the exclusives, the first updates, and who has the higher quality apps
I hope Apple sticks with a dual-core, and focuses on improving architecture or upping clock speed.

Are you talking about games? Every single app I used on my iPhone is available and work exactly the same on my Note II. Except for maps. Maps works a lot better.
I find that the apps I use only Nexus 4 are as good as the ones I used on my iPhone.

The tapatalk app is really better (IMHO) than on iOS as it has widgets that one can use for different accounts.

Oh, that's not the case for me. You wanna talk about tablet apps while we're at it?
I can't. My experience is mainly from watching tablet videos.

Exactly, Samsungs success is due to innovations towards the future.
The other company's success was due to innovations from the past.
Samsung's success is due to heavy, pervasive marketing. Apple's is due to reputation and marketing. Average consumers don't buy phones thinking "this manufacturer is more innovative."
If you're referring to my comment, it was about Apple now making their own chips, not the chip itself. 8 cores? If our laptops don't use 8 cores, I can't see why our smartphones should.
A couple of years ago duel core and quad core were looked upon as unnecessary, same can be said for 8 cores now, at first it will be called unnecessary, but then it will be known for what it really is, innovation. Then it will be the norm.
Sure they do. It's just worded as "Oh! Look what that phone can do!" I call it semantics. When the iPhone came out, a lot of people were inticed by what the iPhone or the apps could do. It was innovative.
sue me.
Now that made me laugh. The laughing smileys don't work though..

But when they come out with quad core it will be perfect, just like a 3.5" screen is perfect and just like a 4" screen is perfect...........wait, how can that be?
