The 64 bit is crap to sell. 64 bit has been around in windows type computers for years and it is not for a speed increase, but to deal with larger numbers. Average users do not need this much computing power. Only companies doing engineering and 3d modeling types of computing need 64 bit.
There are truly only a few ways to speed up a computer. Increase the cpu clock rate but that only goes so far. Add more cpus, for true multitasking, but in a platform such as a phone this cannot be done so in order to get the same benefit in a smaller form factor they increase the number of cores in the cpu which allows each core to handle a seperate process. Android for now is the only commercial os on a phone that can truly multitask and take advantage of multicores and for now it is only up to quad (4) cores. The new octacore (8) is a gimick by samsung similar to apple because the os at this point can only run 4 threads at the same time.
Another way to increase speed is to increase the amount of ram. You can also increase the speed of ram as well.
Another way to speed up a computer is to shorten the wires for example place your ram closer to the chip. That is why cpus have the cache built into them to put that ram as close to the cpu as possible.
At some point you hit a ceiling which is where there will be no noticeable speed increase.
Now there is another area that is a given to. The software to take advantage of these speed increases is always 1-2 years behind the hardware development.
You can look at pcs now which has came pretty close to hitting this limit. That is why they are trying so hard to develop workable quantum computers because they use loosely intertwined quarks for the computing.
Loosely intertwined quarks have a unique ability. They spin the same direction and when that spin is changed in one quark the other quark instanky matches that spin with no distance limitation. They have tested this theory over thousands of miles already.
This has many benefits for one computer speeds will increase exponentially. In theory you can communicate over any distance instantaneously and because there is no physical connection such as a wire or laser the communications cannot be listened in on by anyone else.
Ios is not currently capable of running multiple processes at the same time and cannot currently take advantage of multiple cores, but neither will they take advantage of the 64 bit processor they have either. It is there way of putting something useless in the phone so they can charge more for it.
All companies do similar gimics. Apple has the 64bit chip and samsung will release the octacore processor. Given the current state the octacore at some point will be more advantageous to the customer than a 64 bit processor, but apple fanboys and girls will never believe any of this and will by into the apple mantra.
