^A15 cortex is more powerful than A9 cortex. So if you have a quad-core A9 SOC like Tegra 3, it is sure be beaten by a dual-core A15 SOC hands down. Go search on Google the benchmark comparison between Tegra 3 and Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core. You will see there is about 70 percent improvement in performance with Qualcomm S4 over Tegra 3 despite having only two cores.
About waiting until Q1 next year for a quad-core equipped smartphone, we should actually be happy with that. It only means that Sony Mobile is skipping A9 cortex quad-core SOC and jump straight to Qualcomm S4 quad-core. I can't even imagine how powerful that smartphone is going to be. Beside, power consumption would be more efficient when using the S4 as it is based on 28nm process compared to A9's 45 nm. All in all, future is bright for Sony Mobile.

If he is talking about A15cortex it can only mean ST-ericsson 9600. Qualcomm uses a custom built A9 for its krait. Anyway, its great news that they are thinking about A15 at least. The nightmare would be krait 2013... |

That's positive news alright but the benchmark result is very poor for a S4 device. Krait normally scores around 60. |

Maybe due to Early Development stage in future it should increase.

I hopE SE choose Snapdragon S4 Pro instead. It has Adreno 320 GPU which is much better than Adreno 225. Fingers-crossed!

I like those idea from Sony
What I mean is that to be successful I think Sony would be better of to leverage all its assets across divisions. Their CEOs has talked about it for quite some time. I friend of mine had a fairly high position in an Asian Sony office and he complained about the silo mentality. Why not share more technology and content across divisions? From the Verge post:
"In fact, Sneeden went on to tell us that there aren't currently any products being co-developed by Sony Mobile and other groups within the company — they share some support staff, but the products themselves are entirely siloed. Likewise, Sneeden made it clear that Sony Mobile isn't responsible for Sony's Android-powered tablets. That's strange considering the overwhelming overlap in form factor, operating system, and hardware components, but he couldn't give any guidance on when (or if) that might change. "This is how it is," he said." |

Give Sony some time; I'm sure everything will become more integrated (or, at least, the division of duties will make more sense). |

From Business Week March 2005, i.e. 7 years ago:
Breaking the silos is probably the hardest task Stringer faces.

So it's not like Sony hasn't tried for a long time.

So is it safe to assume that these devices will be powered by:
Hayabusa - S4
Mint - S4 Pro

FreeXperia Project (the developer group on xda that have brought custom ROMs to our devices) have the Xperia S down as having the codename Fuji. Can anyone clear this up? Is that just a hardware codename, and the Xperia S proect codename was actually Nozomi? The other names they've got against other known devices are correct except they have es209ra for the X10 when we all knew X10 as Rachel. Any light?
I have a dig bick

Well, merging their content-distribution networks into SEN is already a step towards either a de-siloing or a more logical division of duties. |
