12 May, 2011
It's been just a few days since the Samsung Galaxy S II hit the shelves and the first impressive and stable overclock is done. Speeding up its dual-core processor up to 1.5GHz will get you some serious...

AnonD-1082, 12 May 2011Slow news day GSMA? I thought so. This is hardly news. Andr... moreAndroid laggs?Since when?I have a phone with Android 2.1 Froyo and it runs smoothly it never lagged for me i never had any problems with it.MeeGo might be worthy competition for Android one day but it will never surpass it nor will Android ever die

    AnonD-1332, 12 May 2011And how many minutes does battery lasts? :)))Yes, overclocked CPU eats more energy, but battery life depends not only on clock speed of CPU, it depends also on architecture of CPU.

            arniebaby, 12 May 2011This is gonna be the best smart phone in the world. SUPERIO... moreSamsung has always been superior when it comes to hardware. It's software and support that needs the same level of attention.

            This 1,5GHz dual core should be significantly faster than Intel Atom at 1,6GHz. At least in JavaScript...

                              Overclocking is going to eat batt life faster than others. Until a better batt comes, there is no point to speed up what is already 'fast'.

                                Slow news day GSMA? I thought so. This is hardly news. Android needs powerful hardware just to run smoothly; but even then, it still lags! lol

                                I can't wait for Nokia to release their MeeGo N9. It's the Android killer. 1GHz for MeeGo is like 2GHz for Android.
