My current smartphone:
CPU: 1.7 GHz dual-core
Memory: 1.5 GB
LTE
I'm looking at the following phones:
#1
CPU: 1.4 GHz quad-core
Memory: 1 GB
#2
CPU: 1.5 GHz dual-core
Memory: 2 GB
LTE
Which one of these will have overall superior performance (including battery life) to what I already have? I have a Live Background app, which does a lot of passive rendering of stars floating across the screen while idling. My current phone handles it fine, but both of those CPUs are weaker than mine. There's also a memory drop between them.
I don't really need the LTE. I intend to use a GSM card that doesn't have data, and use connect to wifi for internet. I want to keep my phone provider, and ISP separate (privacy reasons).
