after reading the processor specs on the mytouch HD (dual core 1ghz) im thinking the g2's processor is already long in the tooth and it hasnt even been released yet!
What do you guys think?
Also, wtf does the g2 look like in the back, I have yet to see any pics of its rear. whats so secret about it, I hope theyre hiding something big.
I really wanted to early adopt the g2 on day 1, but after hearing about the processor the mytouch HD will be packing, I may just wait. For a while..... I want something thatll keep me happy for a year that packs a qwerty
Check engadget for the pics of the back. I cant post the links because im new And im not sure how current/accurate that leak is. All of Qualcomm dual core processors were delayed. Wont see them in phones until next yr. Supposedly the MTHD is to be released in Nov. Something isnt right. We will soon find out

i looked there and at gizmodo and cant find any rear pics.
your right something isnt right at all, in a few months the hd3 will be released with a dual core as well. im starting to think that the mytouch hd and hd3 are packing dual core tegra 2 processors. to my knowledge, those processors have been ready to be dropped into devices for a while now. The dual core arms and quallcomms arnt ready if i recall.
Go to engadget. Click on the latest article about the G2. Click the G2 tag and click the article that says "T-Mobile G2 again, this time with less Mr. Blurrycam." I need to rank up so i can post links lol
i sifted through the internets and found out that the mytouch hd is indeed running on the tegra2 processor. the processor is a soc with 2 A9 cores; each at 1ghz.
in regards to the hd3, im reading that its a dual core 1.5ghz, and that its a single core 1.5ghz.... still alot of speculation. regardless.... its gonna be an interesting 4th quarter.
if the mytouch hd wasnt so ugly id look past the fact that it was missing a keyboard.

thanks for the directions, I just saw it.
it appears to be a brushed aluminum rear with maybe a noise cancellation microphone.
Yea is looks really nice. It doesnt look cheap and plasticy. Im still getting it over the MTHD. I cant wait. Will be rooting my first phone. Im a noob.

wait, where did you see this?
The MyTouch HD is made by HTC which mostly use Qualcomm chipsets. That article is very fishy. That whole dual processor thing is missleading, it could mean anything. In fact the G2 is a "dual processer" phone. The G2 has a cpu and gpu. I say just wait and see, this just don't seem right.
P.S. I have not read anywhere that has stated it is a tegra 2 chipset, pls provide link!

Yea read that too, that just that authors opinion, there is no evidence to back up his statements. If I had to guess the Mytouch HD will use a 1 ghz version of the G2 chipset since its technically a "dual processor" chipset too.
I'm skeptical of this. 1st of all, the mytouch was never a high-end brand. so it seems strange to me that they would all of the sudden use that brand as one of the first ever dual-core phones. 2nd of all, I don't see HTC moving away from qualcomm just yet, but I could be wrong. and lastly, there's something weird about that leaked TMO promo. the writing seems very amateurish to me. but thats all speculation on my part.
Keyword "dual processor" not dual "core" processor. There's a difference. Dual processor is what the G2 and Galaxy S feature; a separate unit for the CPU and GPU. Qualcomm does not make 1Ghz dual core chips.
Also, think about this. Why would T Mobile put a state of the art dual core processor in their teenage MyTouch line, but not in their business power house G2 with "The Google Experience"?
People are threatening to not purchase the G2, or ultimately leave T Mobile for their reluctancy to release a powerful business phone.

wow you are speaking logic and truth. i see things in a differant light also
http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/08/qualcomm-1-5ghz-dual-core-snapdragon-devices-to-arrive-at-end-o/
dual-cores aren't coming this year unfortunately..and I'm pretty sure that when they land, it'll be for phones without QWERTY. I think manufacturers milk the market with touch-only phones with latest tech, before releasing the more 'professional' QWERTY equipped phones. Just look at the time it took for HTC to release another QWERTY android.
So in my books, it's either G-2 or Milestone 2 at this point in time....of course, we'll have to wait for HTC's announcement on the 15th Sept. and hope that they shed some more information!

I've read on Androidandme.com that the MSM7X30 will be coupled with the adreno 205
Quote :"The new Adreno 205 offers about 4x the graphics performance of the previous Snapdragon (Adreno 200), which is around the equivalent of a PowerVR SGX535"
http://androidandme.com/2010/08/new...ot-a-little-bit-faster-msm7230-cpu-confirmed/
Is this to be expected or are reports the reports of using the old Adreno 200 correct?
Either way very excited for new T-mobile hardware with a keyboard
Check this out
Check out what AndroidSPIN says about it
comparison of the 200 in current snapdragons and the new 205
Crap, might have to wait for this. I know it will be popular! I can't image anything in 3D on this.

Information I'm getting is its 1ghz, with an on-board Adreno 205 GPU.
But nothing is confirmed yet, so who knows.
hopefully some sources can leak us some official specs soon and we can find out what this puppy does. i will talk to my htc friend and see what he can find out for us
Im also seeing official Price of $199 with 2yr contract, $499 without.
yeah, you can see at the top of the pic on tmonews that the page was meant for internal use so i would suspect that to be the final answer on price, and as far as the specs we have so far 500 seems to be a fair price compared to some other phones

So one question, didnt Google say that Gingerbread will only work on 1ghz cpus? Does that mean that the G2 wouldnt get Gingerbread?
those specs have been debunked, and this should be better than having faster CPU since we have great GPU
Plus, we'll be able to OC this baby to 1 GHZ or more anyways. This is gonna be awesome! I kind of wish I hadn't gotten the MTS now. Well, I got it when it first came and G1 was on its last figurative leg anyways. At the time, I had no idea the G2 would be coming out 3 months later. Oh well, I'll end up selling this one or keep it as a backup...
Very interesting... This could be a noob question but do you think you could overclock a gpu for better graphics performance...?

God damn I hate this thank you button, anyway I was trying to reply and I hit the thank you button by accident.
Anyway, I bet you that by the end of 2011 there will be an evo 2 and I bet that by the end of 2012 there will be an evo 3. My point is anyone can make a broad generalization, its all about the specifics. Now if the person said 5 months ago that it will have a slide out keyboard with a 3.6" screen with a 2nd gen snapdragon running 800mhz then thats different.
Related question...does anyone have any idea what Sprint devices will be out in early June 2011 when us launch day people will be eligible for upgrade? Seems like we knew about the EVO/supersonic for months and months before release. I wouldn't mind a 4G tablet...

What? Can you not read? It's not the EVO 2. It's just a different model with a slide out keyboard, and no hardware improvements at all. In fact, it's the opposite of a hardware improvement; it's got an 800MHz processor.
The EVO 2 will probably have a dual-core and better GPU to fit the requirements of 3.0

How many times does it need to be said that the 800 MHz CPU in the newer HTC phones are better. Plus the GPU is not absolute crap.
I bet you the EVO 2 will have the same 2nd gen Qualcomm as the current HTCs. And then two months later HTC will release dual cores. And although I do believe that Honeycomb will require a decent GPU, there are no known requirements.

Personally, I believe that the evo 2 will more than likely have a dual core processor. I would even guess it will be atleast 1.2ghz dual core with 1gig of ram.

Don't think anyone is denying that the new internals aren't a step up, as that's obviously the case. But also not quite sure who would honestly see it as a second Gen Evo. I would personally hope that HTC would really take advantage of next Gen dual core CPUs and make a true Evo successor. A man can dream but only time will tell. I would hope to see no keyboard as well...for obvious reasons.

A) Its not the EVO 2 its the EVO shift. You are correct
B) How is a 800mhz processor that runs better than the Snapdragon not an improvement? Believe that it is supposed to have the 205 GPU instead of the 200, that's an improvement as well.
C) If the CPU and the GPU are both BETTER, how can you say it doesn't have any hardware improvements? It should be a sound device, very capable, I'm sure they'll sell a ton of them, I've always thought HTC had better build quality than Samsung, (because they do).

I love my quadcore core CPU the attached image is what I get when I clicked the OPs link as you can see all 4 cores are working. The more cores the merrier thats how I feel. Even if a app only uses a single core four apps can each use their own core. Also I believe as smart as the DEV are here it would not take them long to realize how to utilize each core either independently or together.
qualcomm is not going to have product to show until 2012, tegra 3 is half a cycle ahead with products in august of this year. This is a huge advantage and gives them more time for architecture optimizations.

The most common defense verbally is "you don't know what your talking about". No surprise that is your response. I never said the technology should never be supported, I do think that it is premature. Considering what four devices will have dual-core. So why do we need quad-core in the next 1yr to 1yr and half? Android isn't even fully supported with dual-core yet. Not to mention the app devs have not started writing support. Again if your going to sound like some kid and come back with a moronic response like that. Then ignore my posts.. The link was not immature, so you fail to understand. The content in your post and the title is what got you the immaturity label.

To the upset kitten, relax bra. He just has ideas and I'm all for the quad core but not yet. They need to slow this down instead of releasing all of these goodies at once because phones are starting to be more and more like computers...which is the point I suppose and I'm for it but dammit make my first gen snapdragon single core run like a boss!

I've been an android fan since the G1 but android needs something, something small that would make it completely PWN iOS, which it does but sucks for the everyday indepth user. Android is fragmented as hell and needs to be cleaned up which I'm hoping for in the upcoming android firmwares/updates. I think we can all agree that my Evo shouldn't have any trouble running its basic apps and hickups in scrolling, I need the loose ends tired up. With a 1Ghz CPU and 512MB of RAM it should be totally s****ing on the iPhone.

It might useless this moment but it won't be when it comes out, or shortly there after.
I don't understand why people always try to dismiss new technology as useless just because it hasn't been the standard..[obviously, because it's new]
i dismiss it because our phones can't even properly use dual cores, and because a faster dual core over a quad core will often give your desktop higher user inference scores.

Im not sure what's worse, pantech or kyocera. I think pantech phones would be alright if the UI was better.
Faster doesn't always = better.

You need to stop looking at it that way and be happy by how fast the market is going. Would you prefer it if we're still sitting on 500MHz processors like in 2009?

The evo 3d uses the same chipset.

The cpu inside the Hercules is the same family as the dual core Snapdragon found in the Evo 3d.

Your point was by the time the 3d is out, there will be faster devices out. You then referenced the Hercules, which will most likely have near same performance of the 3d, but probably borked support from Samsung.
Interesting...but pantech? No thanks.
This epic reply brought to you by none other than my roxx'd out Evo.
Correct me if I'm wrong, might be same family but isn't the 3d at 1.2 dual core?
And I totally get your point, I feel outdated just three months later. Same reason I'm holding off on a tablet...ipad is a perfect example, couple months after spending 600 or so my friend feels like an idiot just a few months later he's considering another 600 just cuz of the stupid camera...

Get over it. Buy a phone you like, enjoy it, and get past the need for having the latest and greatest. Phone envy is a *****. Either that, or man up every 6 months and fork out the dough for the newest on the market. Technology will always be 2 steps ahead of you, that's just the way it is.

Truth.
Not sure this is exactly a new thing, across the board as a whole. Always something better around the corner. And what's there to be bothered about something being better than something you don't even own yet ... ? Whether or not it is 'entirely' better or 'marginally' better.
And talk about not wanting to buy a Samsung device ... but a Pantech?

Yup the evo 3d is undervolted to 1.2 ghz for minimum battery drain but will be overclocked soon enough, just look at the g2 overclock threads to see the potential qualcomm chips have.
After a year with my evo, I believe I can easily wait until next year to upgrade since every phone coming out has specs bumps and nothing else . Just because a better spec laptop comes out doesn't mean to run out and get it.
It will be hard but I'm sure ill hold off on the evo 3d and get the next gen evo next july.
What's the point of this thread? The EVO3D has a better screen, higher resolution, and although the clock speed is 1.2 gigahertz, it will easily be able to overclock significantly higher.
The G2, as someone else mentioned, has been overclocked up to 2 gigahertz. A G2, which has an older chipset and has a stock speed of merely 800 MHz.
With Duel Core Phones (EVO 3d, Within) will we Epic 4g Owners feel down?
after all we where the top dog
our phones got us all the ladies
and now we are yesterdays news....
will our epics get us the ladies still or just the older ladies in their 80's?
I wont, by the time Android gets optimized for dual core phones and release, pretty much anyone left with their Epics or Evos will be eligible for upgrade. .
Its not that big of a deal for me, I still love my phone and it does what I want it to do. I'm gonna be getting a tablet next week anyway, so that'll have my dual core if I need it for certain games, etc.
What are you a shrink or something? LOL

No. I seriously cannot put myself in the place of people who become unhappy with advanced technology so fast. If you have the money and motivation to constantly get the newest thing, great, more power to you. But each subsequent phone I get is better than the one before and the Epic is so good it's even made me want a new notebook computer less than I did because it does so many things so well. And its software is still improving.

Not really. The only thing that betters the epic are DUAL core phones (not duel). Android is not yet optimized for DUAL core phones and there are not a lot of apps optimized for DUAL cores yet so the only advantage of saying you have a DUAL core phone is having the newest thing. You're forgetting the other hundred or so phones under the epic that carriers offer for free to $50.
The epic is no where near being an "old geezer".
...... DUAL.

Wow....We need a BASIC ENGLISH GRAMMAR class that should include the handful of basic words that this country can't seem to grasp.
As stated, IT'S DUAL, as in two. They're not fighting cores, has nothing to do with a duel!!! WTF people........Seriously. I could understand if you haven't been through the 6th grade, but I HIGHLY doubt that's the problem....
I could also understand one mess up, but repeating it? Maybe some leeway could be given.....you know...... if one hand't been reading about the DUAL core phones on sites.....BUT YOU HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT DUAL COREs ON SITES.....IT'S LITERALLY SPELLED OUT FOR YOU

The only people who would fall into that category are those whose logic & common sense are far surpassed by overinflated pride & ego.
I am guilty of being a latest and greatest type of guy, and I get yearly upgrades, but I'm leaning heavy for holding off this year and maybe buying a new PC or lappy. I like my Epic that much.

I'll wait for the next gen Duel Core Phones when my contract is up. The hard part is deciding between the Samsung Hamilton or the HTC Burr.

No....your an A$$|-|@t...
The SPHD700 was rumored two have come with dueling cores (as in too), but fortunately the 1.0GHz core rained supreme in a rather Epic battle over the 800MHz core leaving our phone the fastest of the sprint lineup.
I hope my EVO 3D has DUAL cores instead of DUELING cores.....I'd hate to only be stuck with one in operation. Besides, how could you explain that to people??
...."I had dual cores initially, but they started to duel it out, and now I only have one. I wish they would get on the ball and make the cores less aggressive. I would like to be able to have both live in harmony! Seriously, what good does it do someone to have duel cores, all they do is fight. At times I have great performance, while at others my phone doesn't respond at all. It's as if the cores are so entwined in their duel that they can't do anything else but duel! If core 1 had not dueled core 2 to death, my phone would be virtually unusable today"...
It's all in good fun. It's hard not to fugg w/ the OP when his posting was all but intentional. Besides, I doubt he'll make the same mistake again, and for that I give myself credit. You know, for doing for him what every english teacher since the 5th grade has failed to do; help him understand that a duel is a fight, and a dual is a pair :-D

I didn't know the 1.0 GHz core caused supreme rain...since we are in the mood for flaming people about spelling, that would be reigned supreme. Sorry, just couldn't help it. ;-)
