I believe that's our version of Snapdragon. I'm pretty sure the nexus and incredible versions are different.

ARM doesn't make processors. They design and license. Snapdragon is an ARMv7 based processor.

I believe Snapdragon does refer to a line based on ARMv7, but I'm unsure what distinguishes the EVOs CPU from other Snapdragons.

Oh ok....I'm just disappointed because after the group ota....my benchmark fell below the Droid x......*tear*

ARMv7 is a specification made by ARM. The Droid X has a Cortex-A8 processor; he EVO, Incredible, and Nexus One have Snapdragon processors. Both are based on the AMRv7 spec, so they are ARMv7 processors. The Galaxy S phones have Samsung's Hummingbird processors (ARMv7 as well), which are a bit more powerful than Snapdragons and Cortex-A8s. Speed wise, I think it is Hummingbird > Cortex-A8 > Snapdragon (assuming that they are all at the same clock speed).

I saw some place online that said our phones have a 1.5 GHz processor in it buts it under clocked to 1.2 to save on battery and so it does not over heat. Does anyone else know if this is true.

Omap 4460 is what we've got.
So yes, the manufacturer intended it to be clocked at 1.5ghz.
Whether it can run in a stable manner at 1.5ghz is up to your individual phone (silicon).
Using a custom kernel it reboots on mine after a while

Texas Instruments recommends the highest clock speed to be 1.5ghz... that's probably what you read.

OK thanks for the info.

Was wondering because the next iPhone could be using Qualcomm chips if they aren't. Also, eager to see some android phones with LTE and exynos or tegra.

The Korean S3 Quad Exynos comes with LTE but it's a separate chip and not built into the SOC.

Nvidia is going to release the Tegra 3+ that will include an LTE radio. I personally can't wait for Samsung to release an Exynos(or whatever they may end up calling their next gen chip) with built in radios(like the S4).

Damn that sucks. If the Verizon gnex is any indication, those phones will have terrible battery life.

So which do u honestly think is better/more powerful Adreno 225 or our Powervrs ?

Was this not available when you Googled "adreno 225 sgx540"?
If you've been paying attention to CES, what do you think of their new line up of processors, I just can't believe the 800 series is clocked as high as 2.3Ghz

Is the GPU on the galaxy nexus a single core or dual core? I've researched the specs and got nothing on that aspect :/

AFAIK, GPU is builtin to SoC. (SGX540 + Cortex-A9 (dual))
