Wow. I suppose, mid-range devices this year running on NovaThor is also an option to be on the buying list.

lag was never there to begin with, but this will prove it to WP fans now.
2.5GHz x 4 processing power!

Abhijit, 10 Jan 2013STE should have gone for the A7 in mid to high and A15 for ... moreA9s are about 50% as efficient per clock cycle as Krait, new Kraits are clocked at 1,9ghz which means this will be about as efficient as the new mid end dual core Krait. It's not aimed at high end and while I totally agree that they should use A7 instead (it's almost as fast while being way more energy efficient) I bet that engineers at Ericsson have worked on this for years now when there were no A7s available.

Remember this is for mid-rang phone and tablet.
And for power saving. Light use.
These spec is plenty for the normal use!
Now that comes to, will it be cheap?
If they can make it $100 cheaper than it competitor with same features. Good Luck!

A little late into the A9-quadcore game Ericsson, but go$h d*rn ut I love you. Craming 2.5GHz and an LTE modem on a SoC that low voltage make it a viable contender in the midrange. Give it a 4.3" HD screen a winning design and a manufacturer with decent update histroy, maybe a Jolla device?

Android doesn't really need all that

It seems like you and the others didn't understand that this isn't being marketed as a high end chip, this is for mid-range tablets can't you guys read the post ffs?

STE should have gone for the A7 in mid to high and A15 for the high end devices.
A9 based chips in 2013 will require clock speed like 2.5Ghz to remain competitive with S4 Pro. Tegra 4/Exynos 5 are in a different.

AnonD-2344, 10 Jan 2013A real war! Are u serious, that's quad Cortex A9 and not A15? Well, they must have some gall launching on an alrdy antiquated process architecture when everybody is moving to quad Cortex A15/A7 and will soon be moving to quad Cortex A57/A53 and 64-bit! Good work, hope you've gotten Thor n Odin on ur side, or else maybe you'll get banished from the Valhalla of mobile processing!
