Yeah, fair points and this is a little but regardless of how much they improve the quality of the lens, its limiting factor is its size. My DSLR takes photos at the same resolution but a small camera phone lens will always be inferior.

Dual core adds multi-threading which doesn't necessarily make things smoother or faster. It may do in some situations but it all depends on how the software is coded really. I'll reserve judgment until I see some material improvements.

And to play devil's advocate you'll need more space as you're unnecessarily creating images and videos at too high a resolution.

With all of this mind, I'm really in no hurry to upgrade my iPhone 4 to a 4S. We'll see if they bring out anything worthwhile next summer.
