Dual Core Goes to Smartphones in 2011

Just as desktops and laptops go quad core, it is time for smartphones to inherit dual core processors. LG was the first to announce dual core Tegra 2 chips for their Optimus something line. Being Korean, Samsung followed suit with announcements for dual core Cortex powered smartphones called Orion. Both are clocked at 1GHz.

Nokia seems to also have plans for dual core phones targetted in the last quarter of 2011 and more interestingly, to offer cameras that will have optical zoom! Finally!

I guess with my HTC Desire, I could wait till quad core smartphones with interchangeable lens come out in a few years...
