I'm curious as to what will be the applications that drive the need for more phone performance.
I am pretty happy with the performance of my S3, if it were four times faster, I don't see how it is going to noticeably improve my user experience.

You can then carry your desktop around, do actual work wherever you find a reasonable screen and keyboard and you do no longer need to sync several devices. Apart from this, any real augmented reality application can easily burn any excess computing power you may carry.
