Phone Suggestion? Processing Power and Multi-Tasking

[alexnook]

Looking to get an Android soon (early April 2012 Latest).

My only reason for getting it is to run 2 apps at the same time. The Eye-Fi app, which will connect to handheld camera via direct wi-fi mode, and transfer pics in real time to the Android. Each pic - 1.2 - 5 MB.

2nd App - Camerasync or some equivalent, which will resize pics as they arrive in the camera roll, and upload to FTP/Dropbox/Flickr, etc.

Running these both on iPhone 4 triggers one of the apps to close, due to memory/processing issues. Need to run at same time.

So, my desire is to get a dual-core or quad-core Android, and use it for this.

Would you guys have any suggestions for a device used primarily for this purpose?

Notes:

Battery life not an issue, will be working with multiple charge packs throughout the day.

Would prefer 4g.

Would prefer Verizon, USA.

Would prefer a SD slot so I can swap out 32gig cards.

Want to make sure the dual core is actually functioning, that having a DC chip will enhance this process. I've read repeatedly that dual/quad cores on the phones don't do much because no apps are designed to tap into their functionality.

Any feedback appreciated. Thanks!

Even a single core Android can do that together I'd think. I don't have the Eye-Fi app, but I run several apps at the same time and Sugarsync always does the insta-upload thing to cloud and PC whenever I take pictures. Its a background process so it doesn't get killed as far as I see. I'm not from the US so I don't know what Verizon has, but you should be looking at one of these 4:

Google's Galaxy Nexus, Samsung Galaxy S2, HTC Sensation XE (I think some call it Rezound) and the Motorola Razr Maxx.

These are the 4 best Android phones in the market to date. I haven't heard if the Sony Xperia S has been released yet.

Thanks for the feedback. I think they can run together, only issue I think is causing memory/processing issues on the iPhone is the resize. When it's importing, resizing, and uploading at same time, things shut down.

Just want to ensure this doesn't happen on an Android by throwing as much power at it as possible. Plus, the faster it can get it all done, the better. I got a couple buddies with an Android setup, maybe I'll try it out on their single core's first too.

Any other thoughts welcome. Thanks!

Galaxy S2 for sure.

It's a true powerhouse.
