I have the new ipad and while i love watching videos on it, it is unable to playback 1080p movies. (it does play it, but at about a frame per second. completely useless) I have Sherlock Homes-2 7.5gb file as a test file. It just won't run on the ipad. I have tried more than 5 different paid players too. (AVPlayerHD, GPlayer, OPlayerHD etc etc).
So, what about on the iphone 5? Can it play such files?
And what about on android high ends like the s3 or note hox+? Can they play 8gb 1080p files? Has anyone actually run a 8gb 1080p mkv file? I know theoretically it should run it, but in reality are the high ends able to run it?
Those who have tried, kindly let me know. Thanks in advance

avplayer is the best and you didnt even mention it. also, oplayer crashes a lot and it couldnt play mkv properly the last time i checked

apple's IOS has too many restrictions even in video codecs supported and that is why i chose android. it made watching video on my smartphone a lot easier.

Good for you bro. I guess this article doesn't really apply to you then.

yeah even i think your comment wasnt needed, besides no one cares you chose android on this article.
if playing vids of many formats was that important you would have symbian lol
anyways quit pushing your choice down peoples throats

Am I missing something or the IOS video player selection BLOWS compared to android?
There's like ten FREE players on Google play that all seem better than this!
Very odd, I thought IOS is like a superior eco system..Oh wait

No one has time to watch entire videos on mobile devices, that is why the ClipClock mobile app is so great! Check it out: clipclock.com/download/4004
On top of that it supports every major format you throw at it, at up to 1080 definition if you have the latest iDevice, finds and shows subtitles in many languages, and hardware-accelerates streaming video wherever possible.
It also sports USB file transfer via iTunes, file management with "incognito" folders, Mail app video attachment playback and many more, so your money is well spent here. Some quirky high-res MKVs seem to give it the hiccups on anything less than iPhone 5 and the new iPad, but that can be said for most players that are not installed on the newest powerful gear
