So when I play shadowgun on my Nexus 7, and a CPU monitor show all 4 cores being heavily used, that is just bloat, correct? When I process high MP photos, and again, the CPU monitor shows all 4 cores being heavily accessed, that is just bloat? When I do the same task on my iPad, my specific photos take significantly longer to fully render, but you will certainly forget about that fact after 1 second.
Again, think about down the road as well. As of today there aren't many good multithreaded applications, so a dual may work fine in many cases. Additionally, who knows what will be thaught of and implemented in the mobilesphere in the next several years, so I want my current device to be as powerful as possible now, so I can run those new things, and not have to upgrade at that time.
That is the goal... A present I have an iPad 1. In 2010, when I bought it, it worked well. After iOS5 however, it crashes extremely often, almost making it unusable. Almost every crash can be pinned to its low 256MB ram. Back in 2010, 256MB worked ok, but not anymore. That exact same thing will happen to 5G iPod owners in just a few years, and you know it. The A6 is far more powerful, along with the A5X than the A5, and come iOS7 or later, the iPod 5th gen will struggle. Apple will leave the device behind quick....
