Sprint to offer dual core before 2015?

[Got2buzz]

I'm new to the forums and really enjoy them! Keep up the great work all!

In my observations, Verizon seems to have an impressive roll out of high end Andriod phones and yet they don't even offer a dual core device.(?)

Sprint's selection and offerrings (until the Evo and Shift) have been too little too late IMHO. What are the chances they will have a dual core (hopefully HTC) in our lifetime?!?

Thanks again to all contributors!

Im betting they will get HTC's first dual core, it seems as though moto is partnering mostly with verizon/AT&T while HTC is headed towards sprint and t-mo mostly.

As for when... Hopefully my grandson can use it.

I agree with this 100%. I'm sure HTC has been developing something with dual core for a while now, and since the Thunderbolt seems to be the premier HTC device on Verizon for at least the next few months, I wouldn't be surprised in the least to see HTC's first dual core phone hit Sprint.

They will offer it by before 2012, LG come on now I know I am impressed by LG Opt 2x but they been MIA in the game lol only reason they are even on it due to Tegra2. When HTC/Moto/Sam drops dual core you know its serious Biz, HTC is deploying dual core by end of Q3. What you call Sprint "the now network" they better have decent phones in their profile then.

I am positive Sprint will announce a dual core phone soon. I think Sprint will get more love from the manufacturers now that Verizon has the iphone. Also they will look at Samsung's record sales last year...it mostly happened because their flagship phone was on ALL carriers. Here's hoping LG does the same with the 2X.

LG has made some very solid phones thus far, and even a lot of their feature phones have been pretty decent, so here's to hoping that Sprint, and *all* of the U.S. carriers get some more LG love this year.

My (less than educated) guess is that we'll see something shipped in the June timeframe to replace the Evo. In fact, it's that assumption that has me 90% convinced I'll keep the Epic I still have some 30-day return left on...

+1 /\ I believe this to be true ... This summer just like last summer will be big for sprint.

I'll Pick Q2 for the dual core

I don't know why people get so worried about Sprint like they have fallen behind. Even today, the Evo 4G is still one of the most relevant Android phones on the market. Sprint is doing just fine, relax people.
