I would also suggest that more performance in a phone is actually counter to the primary "killer" feature for all phones, which is battery life.

- imtringued 9y agoI'm not sure that's true. The faster CPUs are usually also more power efficient. The phone manufacturers use the increased efficiency to make the batteries smaller and reduce the overall size of the phone. Speculation: smaller battery = higher depth of discharge = faster degradation
- MrMember 9y agoMy first smartphone was a Motorola Droid. It was painfully slow and had horrendous battery life. Each successive phone I've owned since has steadily improved both usability and battery life. My current phone has twice the battery capacity of my original Droid but lasts much more than twice as long. A decade of efficiency improvements in both hardware and software has made a huge difference.
