ok 1st of hello im new to the site ~ 2nd i want to buy a new android phone, i did some research and specs and features / price for the phones i liked and the 2 that fit perfectly are
Samsung Galaxy W and Sony Ericsson Xperia Play
the samsung galaxy w has an advantage cause of cpu and network speeds but im also a gamer and wants to have of course games on my phone so i just need advice, on which phone can do more app wise and will be more useful / more reliable (hate to break a 1st smartphone)
tnx in advance
i am to thinking of buying galaxy w.but i am not sure is this phone is good for gaming.it is a mid range device and it looks like it can play hd games but any one can tell me about that is it good for gaming or does it have any problem with playing any hd games.
If your primary objective is gaming then xperia maybe be more interesting because of hardware's joystick.
yes my primary objective is gaming but i dont care about hardware joysticks.i just want a phone which have better performance on gaming xperia play have 1 ghz cpu but galaxy w have 1.4ghz so does it means it can play hd games without lags and give more performance than xperia play.can i play modern combact 3,mass effecxt,9mm,gangstar rio ,black stab.if yes i will buy this phone.plz tell me about it.

Hey guys. I will be able to change my phone real soon and I'm kinda in a dilemma on which phone to get, the Xperia Play or S2. I'm planning to use my new phone for gaming LOL. Xperia Play has 1Ghz processor and 512mb of ram, but has that fancy looking controller. S2 on the other hand, has 1.2Ghz processor and an amazingly 1gb ram, to compensate for the controller, it is a ridiculously thin smartphone and a better processor. I'm looking for the smartphone which is optimised for gaming.. I want to know you guys opinion!

well lets put it this way if the galaxy S II had a controller built in it would be the clear winner. xperia play i think has most game compatibility but every game ive tried on my s2 plays beautifully and lag free

+1 For great gameplay on my s2 - There is always the option of a bluetooth controller if you are REALLY into games
I have a play.. its nice for gaming but would rather have the S2. I'm getting the galaxy nexus next month and cant wait to get rid of this phone.

The device you pick should really depend if you really want to play a lot of games on your cell phone. I have both the xperia play and the T-Mobile galaxy s 2 that I use for T-Mobile.
The galaxy s 2 is really great phone that you wont be disappointed in because...
.1 gig of ram really helps multitasking (compared to 512)
.2gb of space storage compared to 512mb(really like 400mb for you to use)
. You can connect the phone with an HDMI cable to an HD TV with the help from an adapter.
The xperia play is a really good phone because...
.to play so many games from the android market, emulators that play Playstation 1, N64, SNES,NES, etc.
. It has surprisingly good battery for gaming.
* I like both phones but since I am on T-Mobile I use the galaxy s 2 more because of the 4G connectivity. If I could use the xperia play for faster internet I would pick that one. Pick the xperia play ONLY if you really like playing a lot of games on it like me.
Since the galaxy s 2 is newer compared to the xperia play it is technically better but since games on the galaxy s 2 are okay, they are better with actual hardware controls.
I hope I helped. Sorry for the long post.

I was just in awe that anyone would buy the iArcade when I saw it in the deals on slick near black Friday.
Yea getting the SGSII would be better,plus it has a big screen so,your fingers will have enough room to game
Thanks for the info ppl. But there are several games I heard which S2 doesnt supprt while Xplay supports it? Like Samurai Vengeance2? It will only work on S2 if its rooted and chainfire enabled and I dont wish to root my new phone

There's 2 different S2?!?
I just did some research on it. It's model is i9103 right?
Wait. On the first quarter of next year SE will probably launch a new play, probably with their new NovaThor SoC, which is just as graphically capable as the Exynos, but the processor is a little worse, eveb though is still dual core.

The xperia has a more outstanding design but I would get a SGSII (if I wouldn't be in love with my Optimus 2X), as the lifestyle factor is much higher ;-)
sgs 2 cause of performance and look
sgs2 wins in all areas
SG 2 is better in performance, and overall, but Xperia Play is made for games so it's up to you, obviously is more comfortable to have the buttons to play the games, so in the end you will have to decide between that, overall performance vs comfort in a specific area.
gs2 plus if u have a ps3 or Xbox 360 you can connect it via Bluetooth.

Galaxy S2 allthe way...SGS 2 is better in performance.
Hi,
I am currently tight on budget and the only phones i can afford are Sony Xperia Neo V or Sony Xperia U.
My main usage will be trying out different roms on the phone, medium gaming, browsing. Camera on both phones is enough for my requirement.
After buying any of the phone i will have to use it atleast for 1 year or 2.
Concerns:
Considering todays market and this multiple core talk should i go for Sony Xperia U?
Sony Xperia U has no expandable memory, will it be a problem from modding perspective?
Is dual core necessary to stay relevant for upcoming android os ?

DUALCORE single wont be able to keep up with upcoming games android os etc if you need a budget phone look on the internet for a galaxy s2 i have seen them for £200 do some looking around and you will find a good price
but if you cant get the dualcore one single core is for windows

Moving to Q&A
You didn't actually say your budget and the prices for the phones you've listed.
Based on what you've actually said, go for the Xperia U. Dual core will make a world of difference if you plan to game "medium". Single core in my opinion is dying out. One worry about both phones though, is the fact that they both only have 512mb of RAM. That's a little small in my opinion.
Back to the thing about budget, SGS2s can now be purchased for under $400 AUD if you look around. That would be the best deal for your money - if you could afford it.
On top of that, the Xperia U looks much better
Hi guys,
Im new to this forum and im going to buy my first android mobile. Im thinking to go for xperia j. I've gone through all the specs of this but still im slightly doubtful if this will get lagged after upgrading to JB.
My usage is
Hardcore gamer in pc but not in mobile. Will play in mobile bit rarely.
Heavy browsing and social networking.
App lover.... will install lots of apps.
not a big fan of mobile video recording.
Clicks pictures occasionally.
Does a lot of IM.
So now somebody pleaase tell me if i can go for xperia j. If not, what alternatives do i have.
android 4.1 will bring performance improvements like project butter = Vsync tripple buffering & intuitive touch. the internel memory is only 2gb. & app data partition is 750mb i think but there are ways around that to install more if needed. all other alternative devices like u & sola wont be updated to 4.1 jelly bean. i my self came from xperia ray i find xperia j better. with a few tweak scripts and things its alot faster than when i first got it. hope this clarifies things for you.

No mafter buddy if it will be jelly bean
My friends have problems with this mobile
Also it is of around 300$ still not capable of playing 720p videos
Also it has 480*854 resolution but it has andreno 200 which is quite outdated for this price
Better go for xperia u(no sd card support), xperia go, xperia sola
Samsung galaxy ace 2 these are far better for same price perform 3 times faster than xperia j:victory:
I am also a hardcore gamer on pc
But I use android for playing also when I am not on pc
As it got some exactly same games like pc
Mc3(battlefied 2) max payne 1, GTA vice city etc and the mobiles I suggested u will run these games ultra smooth

which mobile are u using nishuy21??
im not much concerned about 720p videos....thats ok for me.....
i do some serious multi tasking.... n i dont wanna get any lag while i do...this is my major concern..
More cores don't mean better performance my girlfriend has a xperia u and it lags and the screen redrawing is rediculase. I game a lot on my j and the only game it struggled is GTA my Xperia ray did aswell untill I overclocked it to 1.2ghz and then it was fine.
im using this J almost 2 month..
nothing goes wrong so far
wide screen
beauty device , slim elegant
and its cheap
if you want to stay in stock firmware , locked , just use V6 Super Charger make ur J peform better
based 512MB ram , 1GHz single core , i say its not for gaming , but i play a lot game on it LOL
i use EPSX there, lil bit lag only , some HD game , lil bit delay too , but low game , working fine..
if u decided to to unlock bootloader
theres is a Kernel ICS Vengeance overclocked it to 1.3GHz , its fine ofc *main problem cant use the CWM backup/restore*
if you want to use ClockworkMod working 100% just find "adfad666" thread
and CyanogenMod 10.0 jLo fxp 205 so far , its stable for now with sub lil bugs left , just wait till we get full fixed CM 10.0 , and J ready to rock
so far i think J its a cheap but valuable devices to learn new things *since im new on android , still got a lot to learn*
and J its not build to be extreme gaming device imo.
I think yes, this phone is cheap and it does have what you need..
Its around $210 in my country..
And this will be update to JB

I have xperia tipo, galaxy s2
And my friends have xperia go, sola and ace 2 these are best in this price
And u can search a bit at xda u will find xperia j is lagging for some people
And if u are a gamer than u must know the performance difference between single and dual core CPU
Also if u don't care about 720p videos but if u are getting 720p video playback than there should be no problem..
U can compare the review at gsmarena.com of xperia j ,go , sola and galaxy ace2 u will find yourself... The difference:good:
U want multitasking the Mobiles I suggested u above give u better.. Than xperia j
And also galaxy ace 2 has 768mb ram and is also upgradable to jellybean...
I have bought an xperia e dual which has adreno 200 gpu , I know this gpu is not so good to play high end games but I did not have any choice , but I am a gaming lover so I want to ask do anyone has played nova 3 and amazing spiderman on this phone . if someone has tried playing this game plzz share the performance of these games here and sorry for my bad english
What is the recommended system to play Modern Combat 4, Asphalt 7, and other high-end graphical android games. I have been consider XPERIA L or HTC One Mini. Is these phone can handle such gaming? Oh yeah almost forgot... Share your gaming exprience and what device are you using? and Do you use Custom ROM or mod? thanks very much too share.:good::good::good:
