At what speed are they running?
It is probably cheaper to go quadruple core at 1Ghz than dual at 2Ghz.
Also, tablets are supposed to run many apps in the background. The antivirus and mail are probably always there, if you start adding facebook, twitter, google+ in parallel to some games, you just might end up using 4 cores.
