Sony: Life is very important to push quad-core phones in 2013

March 2 news, according to technology site BGR reported, Sony Mobile Product Marketing Manager Stephen Sneeden said today that Sony does not plan to launch this year with a quad-core processor smart phones.

Sneeden said in an interview that Sony will launch the first quad-core phone in 2013. "When we think that battery life can match the performance of mobile phone batteries, we will introduce quad-core products. Now obviously is not enough. In the second half of the year we will be working on the Cortex A15 architecture products. We think the architecture is better than the current four. Nuclear architecture."

Although smart phone manufacturers such as HTC and ZTE have released mobile phones equipped with quad-core processors and Android 4.0 systems at the Mobile World Conference, Sony only introduced two dual-core Android 2.3 Xperia smartphones. Sneeden expressed this: "In 2013, you will find that we are correct. There will be some performance-demanding applications, and battery life is no longer a problem. Then we will enter the four-core era."
