Its all about marketing. They project it as 'more is always better'. So people run after quad cores, 16mp cameras, 3d and what not.
But all this advancement will eventually contribute to making our lives easier. They day isn't far when you smartphone will be able to turn on the lights in ur house, perform as a universal remote controller, probably drive your car, who knows?

Having a dual core phone is good for marketing period. Shows they can keep up with the times. Just like having only one android phone did not really inspire confidence in sonyericsson, but now that they have a few hasn't that kinda changed? |

The technology will always progress.
In such a way that we might think Quad Core is something special now, but in a few years time it will probably be ancient tech.

Not to mention that 6 years ago I played successfully WoW on a 1GHz single-core netbook with 256 ram and 80 GB HDD. The current Galaxy S II has a 1.2GHz dual-core processor with 1BG ram, but I highly doubt it's capable of playing such a game with simillar requirements. Instead, you have 1mb Angry Birds, which lags on slower phones. So, what's wrong with Android and why is it such a resource-waster?

I don't see anything innovative in that. Such a kind of gadgets cost no more than 100euro in eBay or Amazon ( except the last one, but I don't appreciate such kind of remotes, making your life looking like a computer game - you start forgetting that in the real life excists only one Game Over, unlike the computer game. And that makes you less responsible for your actions ).

Don't get me wrong, I'm not moaning that SE don't have a dual or quad core ready, but I would buy a quad core handset. Not because I love the bragging rights (I do but that's not the reason), but because it will be more future proof i.e. it will run Ice Cream and beyond faster, if the manufacturer doesn't give me the update I'll get a custom ROM, it will output to HDMI in 1080p or higher perfectly etc etc
In an ideal world I'd have my core i7 chip planted in there with a mini display port and 1TB internal mem so I can just plug it into my dual-monitors and bluetooth keyboard at my desk and get rid of my PC altogether. And, I'd still probably upgrade it every 12 months, I'd be able to afford it too as I'll have my PC upgrade budget to include.
I'm not greedy, I'm progressive.
If I can use my handset as my PC when I'm at my desk and in the subway then I think I'll actually save money as well as time.
I have a dig bick

But I like the weather widget and I hope to see it in the rest of the Xperia line. And what about the video icon in the bottom bar - a dedicated video app?

I think we can safely say now that the duo is genuine.
I hope as well that the curvy bump on the back is for the xenon.
