Gaming 10 core Smart Phone:
Acer Predator Primo Hands on Review

Again, ROTFLMAO, Dila.

This is NOT a review or a "hands on" of anything, dila. The product is not even in production. It is a product announcement for PRE-ORDERS. No tests, nothing firm. Android phones cannot use TEN PROCESSORS on a mobile device. It isn't set up to manage them. What will the battery life be like trying to run ten hot processors with some of them running at 2.5GHz? I specified phones available today, not pipe dream phones for the future.

The Mate S is Huawei's answer to the iPhone 6 Plus

Dial, did you even read the article? Huawei is competing against Apple's LAST YEAR's Apple iPhone 6 plus, after Apple released THIS YEAR's iPhone 6S Plus. Huawei is a year late to be doing that. Add that they want to retail it for $830 to $900 in US dollars. Far more than the iPhone 6 Plus, their announced phone they are competing against. Say what?

The Mate S was tested against the new iPhone 6S and was blown out of the water by the 6S's speed and did not even beat the iPhone 6's speed. Huawei thinks they are going to be able to find a way around Apple's announced and patented Force Touch screen, so they announced their 128GB (price and availability to be announced later) will have that feature, when they figure out a work-around. Sorry, nice try.

Sony smartphone has 4K screen and new camera module

Sorry, dial, no banana. This is another announcement of a FUTURE phone, with a concept phone, not a production phone that is actually for sale. At this point, it's merely hot-air-ware. My specified challenge was to show a phone being sold. There is no sane purpose in a 5.5" 4K screen which can only eat up battery capacity and use huge amounts of system resources to display images to no purpose because the human eye cannot discern any improvement over far lower resolutions at that size. You'd need a microscope to tell the differences in pixels. . . but the capacity of processors to move that many pixels at reasonable frame rates is absurd in a phone. This is merely spec creep for no purpose except advertising hype to sell to people who don't know any better. . . and who want to be able to brag about size of their members. . . er, screens.

Beyond a certain level at which the human eye can focus, there is no point in going any farther in pixel density. This phone is way over that level.

Try meeting the challenge.
