Touch screen went out on my second Bionic, I pushed for a different replacement device but still got stuck with a 3rd Bionic. However, this one is clocked at 1.2Ghz and the screen is MUCH more vibrant (close to my wife's RAZR). The screen is also WAY more pixelated, but it's a manageable tradeoff for me. Why are these different? I think I read somewhere that only the older Bionics were clocked at 1.2Ghz, but I've never heard of differences in screens.

I can tell a huge difference with the extra 200Mhz on stock, believe it or not, and my old bionic was freshly fxz'd (gotta try and get rid of the evidence before mailing it in lol).

All were 1.0 ghz until ICS unlocked 2nd core and some jumped to 1.2ghz. Mine didn't get the jump, so I over clocked to 1.4. Huge difference.

From what I've read all processors are identical, but some had 5 slots instead of 4, and the 5-slot bionics were out of some of the first models of the device. In another thread here, someone said he owned a 5-slot and a 4-slot bionic. The 5 was more vibrant with more pixelation, while the 4-slot was smoother with less vibrancy. Maybe Motorola addressed the pixelation issue at the cost of color saturation.

Anywho, just though it was interesting. I'm loving the stock ROM on this bionic, can't find a reason to leave it yet.
