      I have told in gsmforum many times that samsung is releasing 8 core chip. This will be included in Samsung Galaxy S4, top1 phone of the 2013. This is the most advanced phone ever. Samsung rules.

                    if Sammy could satisfy me with its design, then ill throw Z away and buy S4. design and elegance is much important to me than 4 extra useless cores.

                              Don't mean to be a fanboy but this is seriously amazing.
                              If they could come up with a PC mode for Android I would sell my PC
                              And for those whining about 8 core being too much ,just sthu because that's what people did when the first quadcore was announced and it became a standard
                              I'm glad Samsung announced this.I was getting tired of the same S4 pro with 5 inch Full HD

                                        big.LITTLE... Now this is innovation... Now a mm thinner with 16:9 screen (apple) or bright colours and live tiles (nokia)

                                        This is why Samsung is leading the market... Where are the haters now?
