Introduction

 

We all know that one of the engines of the PC at all times been the game. If you do not remember about a purely professional field, an ordinary computer today can remain relevant for at least five years, if not decades. The same applies to mobile devices. Today, even the most affordable models are ready to pull the video Full HD, not to mention the usual applications. In many cases, only the growing demands of the games make one change to another smartphone.
 

Today we will try to find out what android-smartphones better suited for three-dimensional shooters and other demanding toys. If we talk about an unlimited budget, then all of the recommendations can be summarized in one line: buy the most expensive model.
 


 

There is no irony in the топовых devices is usually used most productive filling, which can easily reproduce complex 3D-graphics. However, we will try to highlight interesting patterns not only in the upper price segment.

Unfortunately, or fortunately, specialized gaming smartphones are long gone. Today not find anything that can be compared with the Nokia N-Gage and Sony Ericsson Xperia Play. However, some manufacturers are still isolated models that feel good in games. One of the novelties of this segment is a smartphone with a speaking name Explay 4Game. From it and begin.
 



Nvidia Tegra 4i

 

Explay 4Game
 

Explay 4Game just recently visited our laboratory. It is really curious instance of a smart phone from the public sector has built a major manufacturer of stuffing. In this case, the Nvidia Tegra 4i (different from the Nvidia Tegra 4 reduced number of stream processors, 60 instead of 72) with good gaming ambitions.
 

In general, this chip is still rare even in tablets and smartphones to find it at all impossible. Although Nvidia has unveiled the next generation of mobile chips (Tegra K1), Tegra 4i still shows an impressive level of performance.

At the level of performance has a positive effect and the display resolution, which in this case is 720 x 1280. At 4.7 inches diagonally, it does not hurt the eyes, but the load on the Nvidia Tegra 4i is markedly reduced. Overall, the graphics chip can easily be coped with Full HD, but this resolution leaves stock even more demanding on the future of the game.

But the RAM at Explay 4Game not so much – 1GB. In the smartphone 4 GB flash memory that can be expanded with cards microSD (up to 32GB). Another controversial point is the presence of only one slot for a SIM-card: Explay customers are accustomed to two or even трем “Simcoe» . The next weak point of novelty is the battery whose capacity is 2000 mAh.

Despite these shortcomings, Explay 4Game is an intere sting proposition for those who love to while away leisure time playing on the smartphone. Also telephone network supports LTE. Over 8,500 rubles a real find.

Of course, a smartphone with Nvidia Tegra 4i impression. However, someone may not like the appearance Explay 4Game or any other subjective factors. Not to be left without a game smartphone, in the mid-budget segment have to look at the device with fresh chips MediaTek. One of them is MediaTek MT6592 . Of course, he was not able to compete with Nvidia Tegra 4i, but in this niche MT6592 can be a reasonable compromise.

MediaTek MT6592 remembered that he became the first truly mass mobile processor with eight cores. And these nuclei (we are talking about the Cortex-A7) can really work together, rather than alternately. Another important difference from the previous budget MediaTek chips is the graphics, which far outstrips the typical old GPU.

But the diagonal of the screen they have different: 5.0 inches in Fly IQ455 Ego Art 2 and Explay Phantom, 4.7 inches in Jiayu G4S. The advantage of Jiayu G4S is the stock memory: 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal.
