Yeah, but I bet those pics don't stay on the phone all that long. I suspect the pics get shared before 12 hours pass. If my theory is correct, the radio (cellular or WiFi) is the most heavily used feature....

Galaxy Nexus 4? Sounds like a cheap chinese KIRF.

I rarely use my phone for calls now days, mainly texts, FB, and email

Maybe, but I would've also thought that almost everyone surfs the internet on their device too.

Not necessarily. Interest in games fade away as you grow up. I've played quite a huge share till now, and I already can see it.

Also if you play REAL games on desktop/console, like Skyrim, CoD, WoW, Starcraft there's very less chance that those phone games would provide you that much entertainment. I mean, there's no comparison at all.

Not to single you out or anything, but I'm getting pretty tired of the elitist notion that mobile games are not "real games." Tell that to the developers making hundreds of millions of dollarson the App Store and Play Store.

I'm just stating that fact. Mobile devices can't handle the sheer amount of processing yet. It doesn't mean that the mobile games shouldn't sell well.

Well, you implied that mobile games are NOT REAL, which, by the definition of a game, is not fact.

I mean, nearer experience to the real world. Complex game engines these days make the games look so real, almost like real world. For example you can try playing Skyrim in Ultra mode, with a sufficiently large display. Can't overlook that feeling!!

But I don't subscribe to the idea that better graphics and more accurate physics engines equal a better game. There are times when I would much rather play Jetpack Joyride than Battlefield 3.

Then you are't making sense. You can't compare two different games that way...
Correct way would be, imagine a slimmed down version of BF3 on phone, or a total eye-candied version of Jetpack Joyride on console. Or, any NFS on PC, and on phone. Tell me which one would you prefer. Portability of device aside, that isn't my focus.

If your focus isn't on portability (or ease of use) then you've missed the point entirely.

And I sure as hell can compare them that way. I think the NES Super Mario World looks a damn sight better than the new Wii version, despite all its newfangled graphics. I honestly couldn't say whether I'd like a souped-up version of JPJR, but I love its simplistic graphics as is, and I sure wouldn't play it on a console or PC; having it on my phone is way more convenient. And I wouldn't like BF3 on a phone because FPSs suck on phones anyways, no matter how good the graphics (using a touchscreen to aim, move and shoot is not fun). Some games are meant for mobile, and some are meant for PCs and consoles. To state that "real" games are better than mobile games because of their higher graphical ability is like saying an airplane is better than a car because it can fly... But what if where I'm going is just 2 miles down the road? A car is obviously a better choice, and an airplane would be useless, confusing and wasteful.
