Not quite...my understanding is that it's only a single core processor. I'd rather have the 3D feature and not use it if I have to give dual core up.
OP, the only phone we know is coming soon that's in the same class as the new generation of phones is the Samsung Galaxy S II. HTC and Moto have both released top-end phones on Sprint in the last few months. My guess is that after the SGSII, the next high end phones we see on Sprint will be the next Nexus and other phones designed for ICS.

Have you considered the Photon?

Photon has dual core..1gb ram!! What's not to like about that phone?

Blackberry Bold Touch and Blackerry Torch Touch on 8/21, Samsung Galaxy S II in the next month or so, the Nexus Prime within 3 months or so.
the conquer is lame, and if youre gonna get a kingdom, you might as well get a 3d...
photon and 3d are already out, and are most certainly superior in specifications to the evo.

And it only uses the 1gb when it is in the computer dock. Otherwise it runs on 512mb.

Hrm I didn't know that. The screen was enough for me not to consider but this definitely puts the last nail in the coffin.
I wonder if that's a power saving "feature"...

Also a new LG coming out.

Is this an annoucement date or when the phone is actually going to be available?
I had planned on waiting a couple months to see what comes out but I left my EVO in a golf cart this past weekend and before I got back to the course the cart kid had rinsed out the cart and got a little water on it. It wasn't even a lot of water but the phone is acting crazy now and keeps hopping in and out of car mode and goes straight to speakerphone when I answer a call. Not sure if I can put up with it like it is and I not going to spend the $100 deductible to replace.
I'm hoping my 30 day trial will get me a look at the SGS2. If not, kinda leaning towards the photon but need to spend some time with it in store. Was a little underwhelmed by the 3D.

i have seen the Photon but i have not really considered it.
I really like HTC and want to stick with it.
How does the Motorola and Samsung stack up with HTC?

this statement is false..i personally went to sprint to pay my phone bill today and while i was there i gave the photon a test drive..there is absolutly no truth about the ram operating @512 off the dock. with that being said..the photon is a very nice phone speed wise..i imagine battery life is better cuz of dual core..i did not care for the screen or the phone as a whole...HTC are hard to compete with and i will continue to be a customer.

So HTC won't be releasing any new phones any time soon?

proves stupidity of iPhone users, a high powered short wave radio or satellite phone is obvious answer!

Surely you'd buy a new phone for an upgraded device....the 5 is no different from the 4s, the screen is .2 of an inch bigger, still not hd, the dual core processor sucks. if people wanna waste money that's their business....my galaxy s3 specs speak for themselves!

Probably a replacement for Bada? Doubt they shall drop Android on there premium phones any time soon.
Vodafone is involved, that makes it even less attractive. Guessing they don't wish to pay royalties to Google, Apple etc and want maximum profit. That's Vodafone!
IMHO it'll be for budget dumb phones, Samsung ain't going to hand there market share to LG etc.

it wouldnt be a wise move for sammy.. tizen does look good and I think alot off developer will be interested in it but id stick with android myself

It's just a replacement for Bada - the high-end phones are still going to run android.

And so ? Samsung 10.1 tablet can not release normally , there is still no LTE 32GB version in black, original covers for 10.1 tablet...

Theres been rumors of this for a while, looks like internals will be identical, only difference is screen size and it'll probably be more expensive. I'd probably prefer a larger tablet to fit the size of a sheet of paper but i'm not sure if I'd pay extra for it since it'll be close to the size of a laptop screen.

yeah, it's been known for a good bit and even mentioned in one of these threads here. seeing as the 10.1 is $600 i'm sure as hell not gonna spend that much more on an android device that i break a warranty if i want root access. i'll just get a wintab and put what ever os i want. if next year's samsung tablet jumps the $600 price, i'll just have to do with out the spen or just stick with some x64 tablets.

You say that as if a larger screen is always a good thing. Personally, I much prefer a 10 inch. This thing is already hard enough to hold when reading. It's a different device for a different person.

It's really just the point. I don't mind a year it even 8 months between upgrades but their saying a matter of weeks which is bull****.

its not an upgrade, its a different model

I believe I will stick with the 10.1 as the screen is currently rounded up to 300 ppi. The 12.2 will have a lower ppi if it has the same resolution, and if it has a higher resolution then the extra processing power will have to accommodate that. The 10.1 is already a little sluggish as it is (hoping for more snappy updates).

So the point is: they should release products slower?

Samsung's product releases are already shoddy enough. I'm perfectly content with just getting the friggin 2014 note 10.1, but it's not available yet in Canada despite it being out for 3 weeks and counting in the US. All Samsung Canada has to say is 'sorry we don't know lol'. Anyway if they really want to compete well with Apple, they should really have a shorter wait between announcement and release. Also release simultaneously internationally!
I have half a mind to just go get the damn iPad Air at the time it was announced (which I won't anyway). Apple announced it a month later than the new note and it's going to be coming out sooner here! Hell we don't even have a firm release date for the WiFi version here. Even in the US there's no word about the LTE version. Crappy logistics.

Indeed, it is just like the 8" version that will be announced the coming months. From early tests it appears the 12.2 inch Note has much faster RAM but otherwise is similar. (faster RAM will improve overall performance somewhat)

Why don't you post this somewhere more appropriate? It has nothing to do with the 12.2. Developers do what they for fun and have real lives. I am sure some one will get a recovery for this.

They could have announced a 12.2 Version coming later in the fall at launch.

I actually heard about the 12 before I heard about the refreshed 10.1. I debated over waiting for the 12 or getting the 10 and opted for the 10 since I have my 11.6 700t. I can easily dual boot a decent working version of android on it.

Coming soon maybe... I wonder how much it'll cost
http://androidcommunity.com/samsung...pe-spotted-at-fcc-and-bluetooth-sig-20131031/

Moto X Sales figures to 1.4 millions based on this positing:

Now i made this conclusion based on this link:
500,000 from Late August to November.
http://www.theverge.com/2013/11/12/5097532/moto-x-only-500000-devices-reportedly-sold
900,000 in quater 1 2014 globally
http://www.cnet.com/news/motorola-to-shutter-texas-factory-building-moto-x/
Which equal 1.4 millions devices on Q1 2014,Q3 2013.
Now, Motorola or google want to sell it Texas factory what will the Moto x2 or Moto x+1 will look like?
As the deal is over by December of this year.
You guys posted and telling me or informed us with your opinion or conclusion to Motorola second devices that sell over million that they posted in sales figures since the original droid.

Samsung seeks over 10 mil and HTC half of that with much greater margins. It's all business, btw I don't think Google ever intended to ever keep Moto they just wanted the patents.

Google used Motorola I never wanted them to purchase in 2011. And , approval the purchase in 2012.
That the was the reason why they cancel HDMI and physical keyboard on their device too.

Actually if you think about it Moto was already doing horrible before Google bought them, it was only time before they cut jobs to stay alive. Google made smart decisions imo not everything Google does is good and Google didn't do this for charity but I believe it made Motorola phones matter again, before they bought them not too many people even considered Motorola as a potential phone.
