Rumour: Motorola Olympus Is A Dual-Core Android Phone

LG’s got a dual-core phone in the works, judging by the leaked photos from the other day, but according to AndroidAndMe’s sources, Motorola’s Olympus is set to run on a Tegra 2 platform too.

There aren’t any leaked photos of the device just yet, but it looks like it’s headed AT&T’s way. As ever, if you have any details on this mysterious phone, you know how to get in touch. [AndroidAndMe]

    I hope these newer CPU’s use less power, the current range of 1Ghz smart-phones barely last a day.

    It’s not a first by any means, I remember having a dual core omap windows mobile phone years ago. That said, it certainly didn’t have the power of what this one is likely to be.

    I think this would just make the fragmentation problem of Android worse. Manufacturers push the hardware, Android developers will then develop the OS to make full use of the hardware. Then, the OS can hardly be run smoothly on older or lower end devices
