Great Android smartphones for gaming

I changed my rom from the stock version to cyanogenmod 10.1 and the stock Android version is no different in terms of responsiveness, I find touch wiz even better than it. For gaming, there is absolutely no difference. But I still like stock, makes you look cool xD

No difference?
The S3 wins big time.
Larger and better screen, faster processor and a GPU a league ahead of the old SGX in the GNex

I think I didn't make my comment clear, I'm talking about the s3

Gaming is just fancy on a phone with no real gaming keys, no matter the raw power. XPERIA play is king in this department.

What about the Optimus G Pro?

Good point! Even phone arena has forgotten about it being in the top android phones this year.

Don't forget play station mobile which is currently exclusive in some Sony and HTC devices

Exactly!
Note 2 + gameklip + ps3 controller = unbeatable

A nice idea, but the article is about smartphones and not tablets.

As opposed to how many iPhones?

Not to mention that this list leaves out several really strong devices, including the Droid DNA and Nexus 4.

Right! I don't know why they only put three on the list ether because, there are lost more. Thanks for pointing that out.

the Optimus G uses the S4 Pro, not the Tegra III...

I meant the 4x bro, i now both G's sport Snapdragon (S4 and 600)

The DNA (1080p 5"-Quadcore)is actually better than both the S3 and the One X. I am surprised as well the DNA did not make the list.

DNA is amazing for gaming. The only thing is that if you want anything from EA, they haven't made their games compatible with HTC's newer devices despite the many people in the review comments asking for EA to support the phones. Other than that, games are awesome on it.

yeah, it's 1080p display does cause incompatibility with quite a few apps on the Play Store. i guess really the Nexus 4 and the Optimus G would be better than the DNA in regards to playing games.

don't let a hardcore PC gamer hear you say that or a Hunter... xD
