Yes, but they're cheaper. So for $300, you pay for what you get. I'm not even sure if this news warrants a headline on HN.
What's the cost of
- Samsung Galaxy S II
- LG Optimus 2x (or Optimus Speed, depending on location)
for you? Both are recent dual core models, the latter is the cheaper one (I own that one and payed more than $300 and thought it a bargain).
