Best Gaming Android Devices of 2016
Mobile gaming has come a long way since the days of Snake and Tetris. Not only do we now have advanced Android devices to handle serious gaming, but we are also spoiled for choice when it comes to finding what to play.
From FPSs and driving simulators to Pokemon Go and real-money casino apps with no deposit bonuses you can easily understand, there is just so many great games waiting to be explored to the max. But to handle serious gaming you will need a serious gaming device, and no other phones match that description better than these top 2016 picks: (in our opinion)
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
This is by far the best Android gaming device out there. Still pretty new but already turning heads in the Android gaming community, this new beast of a Samsung has a Snapdragon 820 processor that’s strong enough to handle the best games on the market without even a glitch. And if that’s not enough, it also sports the Adreno 530 GPU and 4 GB of RAM. Need we say more?
And just like the other predecessors of this flagship device, the display quality is above anything you’ve seen so far. This is one of the first devices to use the Vulkan API, which is believed to be the future of mobile gaming. If this isn’t your best pick, then we don’t know what is. Well, maybe…
Xiaomi Redmi Note 3
If you got spooked by the whopping sums of cash you need to say goodbye to so you can get the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge but are still in a search of an excellent gaming device, this is the second best deal you can get.
What makes this device great is that it has a decent price tag for offering some great gaming hardware:
- 64-bit SnapdragonTM 650 hexa-core CPU;
- ARM Cotex-A72 lead cores;
- ADreno 510 GPU;
- 3GB of RAM.
And what is the second thing gamers need the most beside great hardware? Of course, a battery that’s not going to keep you hooked to the charger while you game. Well, this phone comes with a 4050 mAh battery that can last up to a day of heavy gaming.
OnePlus 3
With the incredible Snapdragon 820 and a whopping 6 GB of RAM (the highest on the market), this phone might just be the perfect gaming device for every user out there. The One Plus 3 also has a non-removable 3000 mAh battery, which, although not as strong as the Xiaomi, is quite enough to cover your gaming needs. And besides, its price is within the £300-400 range – something no other with the same specs can beat.
