Tablets are clearly forming quite the formidable market to exploit – nay, build upon by manufacturers who want a slice of the pie. After all, with Google promising to solve the Android fragmentation problem with an upcoming Android operating system version, things would look up as the bridge between the tablet and the touchscreen smartphone draws nearer to one another. In the meantime, we will just have to sit tight and see what other kinds of tablets that will be pushed out – and see the kind of smartphone which the Pantech Vega Racer is made out of.
Potentially being the world’s first 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon handset when released in Korea later this month, it will arrive via SK-Telekom, rocking to the Qualcomm MSM8660 processor with an Adreno 220 GPU and 1GB RAM. All those clearly point to high end specifications, but isn’t a dual-core processor at 1.5GHz overkill at the moment? Imagine the kind of battery life this handset will have, good thing it isn’t going to connect via 4G/LTE, otherwise the battery drain would be made much worse.
