New Marvell Processor 1.5ghz 3 cores and 200 million trianges/sec + USB 3 support

me likey...

Marvell's decided to whip out the "game changer" tag for its latest slice of silicon, but when you read the spec sheet that accompanies it, you might be willing to forgive it. Just this once. The new Armada 628 application processor delivers three cores, two of which crank along at 1.5GHz, and enough graphical prowess to churn 200 million triangles a second. You might remember we were once impressed by the Hummingbird's 90 million -- yeah, not so much anymore. The 628 is capable of 1080p 3D video and graphics (meaning it can sustain two simultaneous 1080p streams, one for each eye) and pledges to have an "ultra" low power profile: more than 10 hours of 1080p video or 140 hours of music playback are on offer. If that's not enough, it's also the first mobile SOC to include USB 3.0 support, adding yet another speed crown to its bulging resume. Now if it can also be SuperSpeedy in coming to market, that'd be just swell.

Read up on devices..try them in store..if you like it grab it..there will always be a new phone coming out better then the last..but if a phone meets most or all of your current needs then its good enough.

Example..do you need a core i7 extreme with quad sli 485 cards and 32gb ram clocked at 2200mhz just to read your emails? lol
