I'm skeptical about this. 4 cores for hard processing is ok but 4 cores also for simple task?? Its too much IMHO. I hope they know what is practical but to think that they might only use this on thier flagships is fine. :)

genn, 10 Jan 2013another gimmick. throwing more cores. to sell more. i hope ... moreanother gimmick?
If it was for people like you, we would still have computers running single core CPU with 64MB memory
Also, Xperia Z is going to be outdated on release LOL

You don't know what you're talking about. What Sony basically did is put a built in 'Power Saver' in the Xperia Z. Those are available in the Play Store for years now. What they mean by saying 400% increase in battery life is 'all things turned ON' (GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, Mobile Data, Sync) VERSUS 'all of them turned off'. Seriously, only morons would turn all those things ON when not in use. Do you need GPS to go to your bathroom? Or do you need to turn on WiFi when using mobile data? So moronic.

Woooowww! Finally, my faith in big.Little tech is vindicated, Samsung have at long last dropped the bomb! Nvidia n Qualcomm u can eat your hearts out (or your hats)!This part will power the SGS4 in all probability! Samsung r gonna go even better nxt year with Cortex A57-A53 cores and x64 (and x86) compatibility with ARM v8 and further process shrinks all the way down to 10 nm! The Samsung Future, now even endorsed by President W.J. Clinton! Way 2 go Uncle Sam!

my HOX+ ROOT custom with Killers overclock ROM after a factory rest shames the WP for smoothness.
My Terga 3+ @ 5 cores overclocked to 1.92GHz stable on USB power profile with almost 10GHz of total processing power versus my
friends who is still waiting for 7.8 on his single core Lumia 900! LOL
Why the long delay WP 7 users ? cause single core have no power to handle anything.
Android is the best for true processing use

Anonymous, 10 Jan 20135th core is also present in tegra3 yet it's still power hungry.Nvidia have yet to release the codes to developer's for them to use it properly.
But Custom kernels with super underclock kernel modes do.

If you have big cores, it demands more energy and battery. Intel has that problem on PC, do you see many 8 cores on the market? No. This is because of heat and energy problem. Samsung make an hybrid phone to reduce this, it is a clever solution and brings 50% reduction of energy.

It could optimize battery 4 times, thats 400% for a quadcore. Its just the phone feature that makes it efficient not the number of cores. Optimizaion is the keyword. And I trust Spandragon, Exymos migth bring more suddden issues.
