The A7 architecture is the most energy efficient but not the fastest.
ARM's Cortex A7: Bringing Cheaper Dual-Core & More Power Efficient High-End Devices
The big news is the Cortex A7 is 100% ISA compatible with the Cortex A15, this includes the new virtualization instructions, integer divide support and 40-bit memory addressing. Any code running on an A15 can run on a Cortex A7, just slower. This is a very important feature as it enables SoC vendors to build chips with both Cortex A7 and Cortex A15 cores, switching between them depending on workload requirements. ARM calls this a big.LITTLE configuration.
Could we see phones that will use the A7 and A15 architecture in the same device?

You are right and longer battery life on high end phones because of the use of A7 and A15 architecture simultaneously.

Randomuser compared OPPO Find 5 to Yuga.
Now more of the specs
were leaked. It will come with a 3500 mAh battery and it will be 8.3 mm thick.
Lets hope that Sony uses a large battery as well in Yuga and Odin.

I was talking with some friends today and a couple were interested in the Galaxy Camera, despite its relatively crappy camera for the price. It makes me wonder how serious those rumours about the Xperia K are. I hadn't heard anything about it other than what zomgbbqftw mentioned on NeoGAF... anyone can shed any more light on it? If this rumour were true, it would crush the Galaxy Camera with little effort, but I imagine the price would be a fair bit more. If they could somehow combine Odin/Yuga with the RX100 camera though, I'd gladly toss out $1000 for it.
*crosses fingers*

Offer bigger battery solution may sound interesting, but I think that they just don't have 'know-how' to make a well-optimized software (reduce leakage in power management). So increase battery to keep phone alive for little longer.

Oddly, unlike other countries, Sony is launching Xperia V this week instead of Xperia T citing for our LTE network as the reason.
