Two years have passed since the first 1GHz smartphones hit the market, and Samsung is already looking at the next big milestone in the smartphone gigahertz race: 2 GHz.Such processor speed, Samsung claims, will narrow the gap between a smartphone and a full-fledged desktop PC, at least when it comes to data processing power.
“We are planning to release a 2Ghz dual core CPU-equipped smartphone by next year. This product will have the data processing capacities of a regular PC,” said a high-ranking official from Samsung according to South Korean search engine Daum.
Samsung also plans to sell the CPUs (which will probably be launched under Samsung’s Exynos brand) separately to other phone makers.
How do you feel about the prospect of a 2 GHz, dual-core smartphone? What impact will that kind of processing power have on battery life? Please, share your opinions in the comments.
