Rumor: Verizon�s Moto �Droid T2″ to be the world�s first Android Gingerbread phone
- Rumor: Verizon’s Motorola “Droid T2″ to be the world’s first Android Gingerbread phone � Unwired View
Last year, Motorola was the first to launch an Android phone with version 2.0 on-board in the US (the Verizon Droid). This year, Moto and Verizon have already introduced two new Droids (the Droid X and the Droid 2), and it seems that we should expect yet another one to come for the holiday season.
According to AndroidAndMe (which reportedly gathered all this info from various sources), a new Motorola Droid is indeed expected to hit Verizon before the end of 2010.
It’s said that the new Droid – called Droid T2 at the moment – will be the world’s first to run Android Gingerbread (which apparently is version 2.5, not 3.0; 3.0 may be dubbed Honeycomb).
Furthermore, it will be the first Android handset based on Nvidia’s dual-core Tegra 2 platform, as well as the first to feature full HD (1080p) video. This Droid T2 might be that 2GHz Moto smartphone that Sanjay Jha was talking about back in January (it won’t have a 2GHz CPU, but a dual-core 1GHz one – kind of he same thing).Last edited by 67Tucker; 09-23-10 at 05:49 AM.

All these faster CPU's & GPU's are all well & good but personally, I'm more anxious to see some new battery technology. I couldn't even fathom running a 2GHz CPU on these measly batterys that our devices come with.09-23-10 09:13 AMLike 0 -

- LOL dual core 1GHz doesn't equal 2GHz. The one advantage of dual cores is that you can clock it lower (say 700MHz) and it would run like the current 1GHz single core device because CPU processes are spread across more than one processor which will reduce lag. If you've played with an HTC Desire or EVO 4G or Samsung Galaxy S and notice almost no lag, well a lower Hz dual core can compare in performance. And hopefully it should help battery life more.09-23-10 10:36 AMLike 0
