Android in 2011: Bigger, faster, thinner, lighter
Wednesday, January 12th, 2011After taking a few days to decompress and wrap my head around the Android news from CES 2011, I started to notice a couple of trends with the new devices. Not only are these phones getting substantially faster with bigger screens, but they are growing thinner and lighter at the same time.
As expected, the next crop of Android phones are going to be much faster than today’s handsets. We have dual-core smartphones like LG’s Optimus 2X and the Motorola Atrix 4G on the horizon, and companies like Samsung are pushing out single-core processor handsets with impressive 1.2GHz speeds.
And when you factor in 1GB memory capacities, you have two ingredients for 2011′s “superphone.” Well, at least for the first half of the year. At the rate things are moving, it’s pretty difficult to forecast beyond six months.
