Suitable for playing games?

My 15 year old nephew wants a mobile phone and I was thinking of suggesting this one, the mini. His basic use apart from phone calls will be playing games. Is the mini worth it? Can it play games well. He has a net connection at home and can download using WiFi so that is not an issue. Is the processor and GPU good enough? Can the memory store many games?
Apart from this there don't seem many choices in this price range for Android phones and I feel Android is the best choice.
If anyone has other phone suggestions, please let me know.

if u r intrested in high graphics games..den it lags..high graphics games lags in this device..

Don't know much about which games are high graphics. Can he play simple games like Angry Birds? Which games would lag?
Any other phone suggestion in similar price range?

yea angry birds wouldn't lag..but high graphics games like NFS Shift, Ashphalt would lag..

LG Optimus One, HTC Wildfire S, ZTE Blade - these phones are little bit better than Samsung galaxy mini.

Good multiplayer (Coop) Games for PC

Hey Folks
Can someone suggest some good online/lan multiplayer/coop Games i can play with my friends or even my girlfriend (long-distance relationship)?
Genre: Shooter, Strategie, ..well anything except something like minecraft (building-stuff)
Thanks in advance.

Spiral Knights is kind of a fun time waster, and its free

Dungeon Defenders

Portal 2
What i've been playing recently. first two are free.

Games, and computer stats
Basically all the free to play games on steam are multiplayer
Team Fortress 2, Spiral Nights, Rusty Hearts, CrimeCraft: Bleedout, War Inc. Battlezone, Forsaken World,
That is just some of the games from the free to play page that said they were multiplayer. There a lot of games that are free to play that don't list themselves there for their own reasons (NASA: Moonbase Alpha)
Now there are the non-free steam games,
Borderlands, Portal 2, Rage, The Call of Duty lineup, Counter-Stike, Half-life 2: Deathmatch,
Again the list goes on forever.
Then there are non-steam games like League of Legends (free) and its ok, some really like it, not my cup of tea.
Of course the majority of these games require fast internet (20+ mb download and 15+ mb upload on both sides) and a ethernet port fast enough to keep up (no laptops) or wireless n wifi (this can be done by most routers, but only good ones actually transmit data at wireless n level speed, so ethernet is better if you don't have a laptop)
And on top of fast internet, you need a excellent computer to play most of these. If you don't have a AMD Radeon HD 5200 (I have 5400, like 60+ fps on TF2) or better (nvidia equivilent if that floats your boat, I got a AMD cause it was on sale) and a pentium 4 at 3.40 ghz (again, AMD processor if that floats your boat) or better, then on games like TF2, you'll play fine most of the time on offline (vs. bots) mode, but on online you will LAG, a lot.
Just as a rule of thumb, if your using a vga graphics card, most likely, you can't play these games. And if you run dxdiag (using run command in xp, or run bar in vista and 7), you can find your graphics card. If it says something like "Intel Express Family Chipset" then you can't play these games. Or if by some miracle you can (like I could before I upgraded my graphics card) it will get >5 fps and look horrible.
Bottom line, before thinking of the games, check your computer stats at both ends, if you both don't have good stats, your options go to playing leaderboard flash games and trying to beat each others score (really fun ), or buying a console and playing your games on that.

Another recommendation for Portal 2!

Oh wow, huge thanks to everyone.
I'll take a look at all the suggestions
And ofc i know the pc/laptop has to be good enough.
Mine:

4 GB DDR2

Girlfriend:
i3-2310M Prozessor, 2,1 GHz
4 GB DDR3
HD 6470M
not sure about the graphiccards, are they both good enough for ..e.g. portal 2?

Ram is certainly enough, but try running the dxdiag command, checking the video tab for your graphics card.

i play AvP 3, and even though the gameplay is bad, the multiplayer is good. being the last human standing against aliens are the best!!!
I'd still recommend Age of Empires II for RTS...

Thanks again to everyone.
I took a closer look at every posted Suggestions but hm idk they all look kinda weird^^.
Any other..? Low priced is okay too btw

If you have a good pc, i recomend All Points Bulletin ( APB ) for me its the best game period! Never gets boring, requires a lot cooperation

[Q] Gaming

Hi,
So i was thinking about buys a optimus 4x to replace my old android but i would like to know if u guys would recommend this phone for gaming, i want to plug it on an tv via hdmi and use my ps3 controller to play on it when im travelling.
Know that u guys know the purpose of the phone would u recommend it to me ? Or should i look for another one ?
Thx

Game play is pretty smooth for me. But i find battery drains very fast when playing hd games.
Just ordered 1 mhl hdmi cable once i get then i can check and confirm its performance on my 50inch lg tv with my ps3 controller.
Cable is already shipped i should get it by tomorrow.

gaming is quite smooth but not very good. Even few good games are not officially supported, though runs good if you get from an warez site.If you want gameing, go for nexus 4 or optimus g or htc one x+. Good luck.

There is always support issue between known brands like there are many games supports only tegra devices..also for many games (check TegraZone app from playstore) it supports more detailed gaming graphics like Dead Trigger just google and you might get to see..what i am tryimg to say else let me know i'l share youtube link with you
Its not lagy for me but agn may it is for other games i have not tried yet.

I´ve searched some videos on youtube and I saw that is nfs mw and gta vice city have some lag during tha play and that worries me a bit because this is the type of games i would play a lot

If you want to play the games you should buy galaxy s3. 4x is a good phone but games on this phone are lagging. Or my phone is not original 4x xD.

For you i`ll try nfs mw tomorrow n let you know how it performs.

I'am played few games and all wouldn't work well...
For example NFS MW, GTA VC, Beach Buggy Blitz, Zombie Driver THD.

Well-- i think ppl have diffrent thoughts about the gaming Some have lagg and some don't.
The games I play is: GTA:VC, Dead Trigger,Subway Surfers,Temple Run, Zombieville and Sword & Sworcery.
- Dead Trigger: The game is playable.. but it does have some fps drops and lagg.
- GTA:VC 1.0.2: This game is allmost not playable, it does have fps drops,some sound laggs and lagg spikes
- Subway Surfers: The game is playable, but has some lagg.
- Temple Run: This game runs fine
- Sword & Sworcery: No problems here, but then again.. not a demanding game
- Zombieville: No problems here, but then again.. not a demanding game
My phone is stock and not rooted. I tried to root and OC.. but to be honest, it didn't feel like it was doing any good.
My friends HTC One X runs these games with no fps drops or lagg, but his phone has JellyBean (android 4.1).
While this phone has Ice Cream Sandwich (android 4.0).. And there is roumers about a JellyBean update in Q1 2013 (or january).
This might fix these issues
Hope it helped.

I can see laggs in that video, you can play the game.. But the experience isn't that great. Atleast for me that is
Did u play with everything maxed out?
how long did u play the game? Like in sessions ?
Did u check these?
Nexus 4
or
Htc One X
This last one has the same CPU and GPU but runs it a tiny bit better, but there is some lagging there too
But then again.. this should be because of the JellyBean update.

I would say near on useless for gaming, even hill climb racer is laggy,

Hill climbing? Seriously?!

i dont see much difffence from that htc one x video, to my video. it runs a little smoothier may be, but VC is completely playable on my 4X, almost lag free... i playd with maxed out option but resolution on 86% as far as i remeber. i play like 30 minutes ou maybe more with always the same result.

Try to put it on max.. Im only playing on 100%-100%-max.. if you put the resolution any lower it looks alittle washed out
30mins isn't that much, try to be on a visit to someone old or someone in your family.. it will suddently be 1-2hours.. And in this time.. believe me.. sound spikes and laggs occour more than it should and yeh.. the heat is alittle unpleasent.
Anyway.. I did say this.. : for some it laggs and for some it dosn't.. it seems like it has some varity..

I tried nfs mw..it run too smooth..but i still havenot tried multiplayer mode will update on tat later. I dont have gta vc i`ll see if i buy 1 i`ll update(its expensive game)
Friends i want to know how ur battery performs specially when playing these games? Mine gets heated(common in almost all devices) and battery drains on per minute basis n its annoying.
Apart from games battery backup is good.

You are the first person who is claiming NFS MW to be smooth:/ You can even see it in that LG optimus 4X HD gaming video.. that it's not smooth! thats for sure
Battery: Normal use.. phones, messaging, some web browsing here and there, music here and there, standby and some wifi.. I can easily have my phone on for 2days
Battery while gaming: It depends rly.. Sometimes it 's 3-4hours but sometimes its like 4-6hours.. rly depends on how demanding the game is.. if you have data/wifi on etc

Yes every game runs smooth. Dead Trigger contract Killer zombie 2 gta 3 modern combat 3 and 4 need fir speed most wanted all run without issue and many more. I set my 4x to 1500 MHz on performance with lowest to 1500 MHz as well with setcpu and i have no issue to play any game I want. And the only time I had lag was when listening to music it jumped like crazy and stuttered but ever since setcpu is installed set to lowest to 100mhz I have no more stutter when listen to music.

Well battery is pretty normal when gaming that it will drop pretty quick. Otherwise I have no issues. Last 16 17 hours on heavy use as long as I don't use cellar data. Wifi seems fine but cellar data is a freaking battery killer.

[Q] Is xperia T good for heavy 3d gaming?

Hi im thinking of buying a nice phone for playing games is xperia t right thing. How are games like modern combat 4 , nfs most wanted, spiderman, dark knight rises running on this device . Plz give a quick response

Out of the box, it works OK until it gets hot. There have been numerous threads about thermal throttling kicking in after a while and killing performance - do a search rather than creating an 'urgent' new thread next time.
Having said that, if you are prepared to root then this thread may keep your performance up:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1937329

This phone gets HOT when playing games? i thought its 28nm cpu will stay cool. Should i buy xperia T or should i buy htc one XL for gaming
by the way i researched alot and could not find a similar threat.

Most new phones have some sort of heat issue and thermal throttling. I would recommend trying the games on the handsets to see exactly what you feel about it.
Sent from my Xperia T using Tapatalk 2

I am running now at 192 - 1458MHz, both cores always on, when the heat is going over about 65°C, CPU is throttled to 1188MHz (and less), still with both cores on. When I am gaming a little longer, CPU temperature is going up to 75°C and battery temperature does not exceed 50°C while connected to wall charger.
All games I know are running smoothly this way.
These temperatures should be fine. If anything goes wrong with these temperatures, then it's a bad device.
Thing that is low on T, is RAM. I would recommend something with 2GB. I believe there will be games with 2GB requirement soon. And T has only 640MB available RAM for applications. And system is using about 300 - 400MB. The rest of RAM is low even for browser and low for future gaming, at least now in ICS.
And internal memory chip has not very good performance. For example SenseMe Slideshow (plastic frames) never makes smooth slideshow. Opening phone or SMS app takes almost 2 seconds. Opening NFS Most Wanted takes about 15 seconds (and this procedure kills all opened apps, very nice. Etc.
I am not telling it's a bad device, I like it (except wifi, that one drives me mad. But I recommend something else for heavy gaming.

Out of curiosity, ¿what rom/kernel combo are you using?. I'm interested in undervolting and underclocking my device.
I used Siyah kernel while I was on Timin8r's stock rom, but now I'm running AOKP and I don't know any current kernel compatible with that.

Siah kernel, but works on stock kernel too (except 192MHz). Values are changed manually.

i have already ordered the Xperia T But hope that it will not dissapoint me Devices with 2GB are out of my reach and in my country i found xperia T the fastest in my current budget

You won't be disappointed. It is good device. But has some disadvantages. Just like other devices.

Gameloft have started adding graphics setting to their games which is a good move, so I imagine MC5 will have them. Dunno about dead trigger 2 but they normally optimize their games well. I have a lot of games, they all work fine after reducing the thermal throttling. Only problems you might face is games being unavailable such as a few flu titles, but device spoofing takes care of that. My phone sometimes shuts down from online gaming because the battery can't take the stress, but as long as the throttle allows 12420000 or lower it rarely happens unless battery is low. Plus a friend is trying to make a fix for it, by putting out a voltage based on averages, rather than having a voltage that is too high then it dropping too low under pressure . Also its the same chip as USA version of GS3

Dead Trigger 1 plays smooth on my Cortex A5 800Mhz and Adreno 200. :\ Few lags here and there but nothing noticeable... I think this will handle Dead Trigger 2... Subway Surfers lags like hell though.
How about N.O.V.A 3 and MC4? I just worry about constant non-playable frame rates. I can't judge by YouTube. Do you get smooth experience with Adreno 225?

How has your experience been with 3D Performance & Emulators?

For those of you that already have your handsets, how has your experience been with the performance of 3D games and more intensive emulators? Have there been any games that have shown noticeable choppiness or sluggishness?
Edit: I read in another thread that Real Racing is giving Snapdragon owners problems. Also - I'm a bit curious as to how PPSSPP is treating people.

I have no issues running epsxe with open gl and all setting at maximum. Playing ff9 atm. Emulators shouldn't be an issue.

I just play Asphalt 8 on my Note 4 Exynos and it gets around 60fps at max settings.

I try few 3D games in my Exynos N910C include Real Racing 3 and Death Trigger 2. So far so great. No issue.

Could you post gamebench prints of the performance on some games?

Another gamebench video (exynos)

My device is finally here and it performs great (Exynos - C version)! But it gets warm (just warm no hot) fast and the throttle is very strong!! My Antutu after playing minion rush for 10 minutes was 35k and after a lot of gaming my GFX T-rex on-screen was 8 and off screen was 16. With the phone unused I got 25 and 37 fps for each of them. It is hot here (28C = 82F) but this throttle is too powerful! I'd rather have the phone getting hotter with better performance. Don't know if that would be possible.

The Galaxy Note 4 has a terrible 3d performance, i imagine it is because it is rendering at 1440, my HTC One M7 did far better at 1080. A few games that are jittery messes are anything GTA and also Gangstar, not impressed at all. Perhaps somebody will hack it so that it renders at a lower resolution, because really the snapdragon 805 is not up to intense 3d games at native resolution.

I have better gaming experience in Asphalt 8 with the Note 4 Exynos+1440p than with my Note 3 Qualcomm+1080p.

I'm using NOMone Resolution Changer to set display to 1080p to play games. When you change the resolution everything looks wrong (big icons and etc) but the games are actually perfect but less pixels to push so better performance. If you are rooted and mind gaming performance, this is a must have.

Just curious - since this is the one thing that might make me change my mind about not rooting my phone - Does NOMone Resolution Changer know to automatically change the resolution only when a game is specifically opened? Or do you need to change the resolution first - and then start the game?

For the guy saying that GTA is stuttery.. its nothing to do with the resolution. Its all to do with heat and the Samsung DVFS voltage and frequency control.
With DVFS enabled after a few mins of GTA it slows down a little bit and starts to get stuttery because it throttles too easy and underclocks the CPU and GPU by about half.
If your rooted and disable DVFS you get the full GPU and CPU speed in games like GTA vice city and its extremely fluid.

Second option unfortunately. If you find an application that does that, please tell me. I didn't look for it though as NOMone is working great and I'm a bit afraid of messing with the resolution too much.

Just got myself an exynos note 4. Very nice phone but aside from a little touchwiz stutter, games such as real racing 3 and clash of clans stutter. My nexus 4 ran them fine. Did a quick antutu benchmark to see whats up and this is what i got without flight mode on. What do you think? Benchmarks say my phone should handle them with ease but thats not the case. Anyone with a solution?

Mine can just run them fine. Try a factory reset.

Probably some rogue app you got running. Reset like he said or restart. No stutter on this old games so no fix required. Emulators have been good tho getting over 30fps in a few n64 games mupen64 that have tried, dolphin still not the best speed. DraStic was made for the note line. Runs awesome with each game I have.

Has to be coc related. I read a few reviews on the play store from note 4 users who have seen this as well. Much more demanding games are running great so ill just wait on an update.
