redlite, 02 Oct 2013So its a gimmick yet they are also working on a 64bit chip.... moreIncase you've not noticed by now, a lot of mobile devices running high end Qualcomm chips have maxed out their RAM allowance of 3GB, Qualcomm is designing 64bit to use 4GB+ of RAM, unlike Apple who merely implemented 64bit architecture to lure in Apple fans with something new.

Qualcomm vp is really mad. Instead of commenting on other's products just concentrate in developing ur product. Apple has die hard fans like me who will not change their iPhone whatever u comment. U cannot just beat apple. Apple is the best in the world & nobody can challenge apple.

A chip that performs almost as same your company's 2.3 ghz processor with 4 cores at 1.3 ghz with 2 cores is a marketing gimmick . OK LOL.

And Apple will say quadcore is gimmick also. It's a battle of which gimmick is best and Apple wins in that regard.

the fact 64bit allows you to address memory greater than 4gig will /one/ day be of importance, it's another 5 - 10 years before we see 4gig as standard.
But when we do start seeing 4gig/8gig/16gig of ram to complement the 4k screen resolution on a 6inch mobile screen, sure then it might be handy...
Just not yet, it's not needed.

Well, Apple is only powered by their marketing team. Steve Jobs would have done nothing if it weren't for them. I think that a lot of people would shift to Android if they use a high-end one for some time. That happened to my friend. The way Apple gets a lot of customers is by showing features like they are the only ones with them even though the competition has had it for a long time. Long story-short, Apple is a marketing company, not a computer company.

The benchmarks are really impressive. maybe Apple can come up with 4GB RAM in the phone, or something along those lines which can fully utilise the 64-bit structure. Apple has always made stuff which is actually a stepping stone to the next...

So Apple fans are paying more because of a "marketing gimmick" which is of zero use. Brilliant minds LOL
