, Jun 1st 2012 Discuss [0]

Typically these days we see different SoCs being used in phones due to LTE incompatibility, but the Taiwanese HTC One S may not be using Qualcomm’s Snapdragon S4 processor due to a possible supply shortage, which would make sense: it’s a heavily sought after chip, used in several high-end smartphones this year.

, May 21st 2012 Discuss [0]

Now that the HTC EVO 4G LTE and the HTC One X have been released from customs – or so we’ve heard – we can start deciding which one we really want when we head to the store this week. What we’ve got here are two devices of the same mind, each with a 4.7-inch display, the same Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor, and what very much appears the be the same camera on the back as well.

Verizon Galaxy S III S4 dualcore beats Exynos in GPU testing

, May 14th 2012 Discuss [0]

The Galaxy S III tidbits keep on coming, and after promising battery indications comes further evidence that Verizon's variant of the smartphone will pack a dualcore Snapdragon S4 rather than Samsung's own quadcore chip. Premature NenaMark2 benchmarks suggest Verzion's SCH-I535 Galaxy S III will indeed swap the Exynos for a 1.5GHz S4, presumably the same chipset as in the LTE-toting One X, as Samsung moves to accommodate the 4G technology.
