LG G2 vs Galaxy Note 3

[CardiganMcSwank]

I'm in the final stages of buying a phone, and it's down to the G2 and Note 3, and running PPSSPP is one of the tiebreakers. Hardware wise I know the Note 3 is more powerful, but how much of an actual discrepancy in emulation speed should I expect that to create, both currently and in the future? Any insight would be appreciated.

Both have the same hardware, the problem here is that Snapdragon powered phones and tablets are a train wreck performance wise in PPSSPP. Hope the team looks in the issue soon.

The main difference here is that the Note 3 has 3gb of ram, mostly useful for S-Pen related things, and its bloated to the insanity by touchwiz interface. As a former Samsung user, never, i say, i will never go back to touchwiz. Its crap, slow and bloated like hell.

Thanks for the replies, and sorry I didn't realize that it's considered off topic. So basically the extra RAM on the Note is mostly negated by overhead? That makes my decision a little simpler. Also, I now see that they have the same processor clocked differently. Why is that and does that change anything in the slightest?

i owned note 3 about 2-3 weeks and i think samsung have improved touchwiz. i choose note 3 aside from mobile gaming is to simplify my note-taking while working or daily life. multitasking/floating apps also feel very good as i can take note/watch video/reading/copy paste/sketch/calculation/web browsing without hassle. extra ram really convenient for this purpose. and i didnt feel bloatware really annoying atm. of course removing bloatware will give extra ram for other apps to run smoothly and remove wasted storage space.

and 1 thing i would like to advise if you spend much time on mobile gaming eg. android game,emulator, you should consider about the battery life and device temp while playing too. i own htc one x+ before and i only manage to play less than 2 hrs on drastic emulator (nds) even though it not use much 3d graphic and the temp often rising to 54 degree celcius which i need to use screen protector + casing in order not to burn my hand. with note 3 the temp always maintain below 40 when playing ppsspp/drastic and i can spend more time play nds game up to 4-5 hrs if switch to plane mode and adjust screen brightness. and with usb 3charger, i charged mine from 20% to 100% approx 1hr 30mins which is quite fast.

Are you sure the Galaxy Note 3 has Snapdragon? I doubt every phone has it. The touch whiz works fine with me. Nothing wrong. You are just assuming because you feel like it is.

Get a OnePlus One.. same specs as Note 3, a little better actually. But with small price for 16gb $299 or 64gb $349. I have it.. PPSSPP runs great!

This thread is from a year ago. I'm sure he already got the phone he decided to get.

Not sure you will see this, but how the hell did you get PPSSPP to run on your OnePlus One?

No matter what I try, it's a trainwreck with 10fps or less and super distorted sound.

Sorry for posting in old thread.
