Motorola Droid Specs Leaked, High-End Features Abound
550MHz processor
Does anyone know how this stacks up against other phones. Say the Storm, Tour, iphone, Imagio etc.
I'm sure with enough searching I could find it but don't feel like wasting my life over a phone

Don't know specifics, but it does make it the fastest android on market now, it's also faster than a lot of WINMO phones/blackberries. It's not the fastests (that goes to the euro phone running a snapdragon processor) but it's fast.

The droid's cpu is dual core. The Samsung is single core. Higher clock rate also means lower battery life and more heat.

Are you sure it is dual core? It is a new type of chip that uses less battery consumption, But no mention of dual core is mentioned. Could you provide details?

How dare you argue a point with a VZW Fanboi? He said it, so therefor it is.

I wouldn't worry about the processor speed. The Droid uses an ARM Cortex A8 based processor which is roughly 1.5-2x as fast as the ARM11 cores of previous Android handsets. So a 550MHz OMAP3430 is roughly equivalent to a G1 running @ 775MHz+, only with the lower power draw of the lower clock speed. You can't directly compare the clockspeeds of the two processors without considering their IPC (instructions per clock) performance. In short, the Droid should be plenty fast.

I may be wrong but I believe that the iPhone 3GS is running a Cortex A8 processor at 600MHZ, While the 3G was an ARM11. The difference between the droid and the rest of the android handsets out now should be very similar to the difference.

Original & 3G: Samsung 32-bit RISC ARM 1176JZ(F)-S v1.0[7]
620 MHz underclocked to 412 MHz[8]
PowerVR MBX Lite 3D GPU[9]
3GS: Samsung S5PC100 ARM Cortex-A8
833 MHz underclocked to 600 MHz
PowerVR SGX GPU[10][11]

As said above will have a 800mhz plus the OLED and its a SAMSUNG not a MOTO! lol - thats the most important part

Actually no, the most important part of that is Sprint sucks.

Motorola's 550MHz processor will run circles around their 800MHz processor for the same reason a 2.66GHz i7 will run circles around a 3GHz Core 2 Quad. The Motorola will run an architecture far ahead of the Samsung's, not to mention an independent GPU that will blow the Moment out of the water for gaming, all while getting far better battery life.
And yes, the 'Motorola vs. Samsung' argument will be the most important part. Not only will the Motorola outperform for gaming and raw speed, but it will blow the Samsung out of the water for reception and call quality. Motorola is the strongest performing brand on the market in terms of reception minus a handful of Nokia's while Samsung is characteristically at the bottom of the barrel in th...
