Phones are now evolving into multi core devices that can be connected to large monitors and then work like media players or computers.
The most common of these processors are Qualcomm's Snapdragon, Texas Instrument's OMAP 4 and Samsung's Hummingbird. The main advantages that smartphone users can expect from multi-core chips include faster web page loading, better performance, a better gaming experience, smooth user interface and better multitasking. Increasingly, smartphones can be used to watch television, and can play and capture full high definition, or 1080p resolution video.
