The mali 400 in sgs 2 is bound by it's vertex and triangle perfomance so newer vertex and triangle heavy games will not run smoothly on S2
here some list that i tested :
Real Boxing no full effect
Gangstar rio (effects disabled on android)
Gangstar vegas(need optimization, still quite playable on high)
Anomaly 2 (vertex and triangle heavy games low perfomance benchmark score test)
modern combat 4 (need compatible rom and kernel,playable on latest neatrom but still not smooth)
Tainted Keep
Horn ( SGS 3 and note 2 optimized,seriously???!! lag on my sgs 2)
Conduit HD (optimized tegra 3 vertex and triangle heavy,still very playable but not smooth)
The dark knight rises (little - mid Stuttering on some area, i wonder is there any android phone that run this game smoothly)
still our S2 can play 90% games smoothly on max setting,the best and cheapest android gaming phone to date
any info or tips to play those game smoothly... just post below

From what I understood mali was supposed to be marginally better
Well its true that our mali 400mp its OLD almost 3 years
But still can play games
And what the f*** intensive graphics games on a phone ...c'mon i dont think that someone have an s2 (and plays the dark knight rises,i played it too and arkham origins) and doesnt have at least a dual core pc with at least 2 gb ram
I play games like assasins creed 4 far cry3 and crysis 3 on my i7 4770k 16gb ram ddr3 2133mhz on 2 monitors using asus gtx 690 4gb ram at 1920x1080 for each monitor

Hey, BTW
Real Boxing was working with Tegra 3 graphics on my i9100
Gangster Vegas was working very good on High as well
Modern combat 4 works great
The dark knight rises works great as well
I haven't encountered any lags with those games
Even Dead trigger 2 performance on the s2 is acceptable with the high graphics enabled
NOTE : I am running stock cyanogenmod 10.2

I can pretty much confirm this on CM10.1, except maybe 'Real Boxing' haven't got around to ever playing it
all i can say that the galaxy s2 is always and will be a device that has its magic ... i tried the s4 and the note3 and all the galaxy new devices but the s2 has its ironic shape that most if us like and its performance is very very good and we are getting every single android version here thanks to xda alive members and its 4.3 inch screen which is to me the best in the business where its not small nor big :good: ...but all i hope is we can get an official kitkat or a new TW official rom newer than 4.1.2
CyanogenMod performance is much better than any touchwiz based rom, dorimanx kernel is awesome too but it's just part of your system not full system. I'm sure performance increase in games is also noticeable compared with samsung crap loaded roms. "Clean" android (aosp) is really clean. Only downside might been not perfect implementation of system parts that are only available for newer devices and these supported already by official updates to system base, so android 4.2.2, 4.3.1 and 4.4.1 is not perfect on s2 just because unofficial libraries still taken from 4.1.2 base. For example GTA III wasn't working on 4.3.1 but had no problems back with android 4.0.4... Compatiblity is random For FPS in games I'm still really happy we can at least run these games and as said before better get a PC if you want to play games, for price of today's high end phone you got great machine. S2 is enough for having a smooth android based device and for me that's a border where you need to think you need spend money on phone that won't be big change anyways or pc, console that will make real difference in gaming.
galaxy s2 is now like a midrange phone old gpu but still awesome

Try running these games on DorimanX Kernel with CPU and GPU OCed. Should stutter less:good: (I dont play too much games myself but from experience DorimanX kernel + OC = Best performance SII and ever provide)
so after reading a couple of posts i guess it all comes down to rom level. I myself personally have not had any good gaming performance on slimbean roms or either it doesn't work at all.

I haven't played the games you listed, but a week back I did install Injustice: Gods Among Us.
And I have not seen a single hiccup at all.
I'm running Stock 4.1.2, unrooted so obviously not overclocked either.
I'd say this is still a hell of a device..
Hi guys,
The king has not fallen yet.
Have you heared about PurePerformances X MOD? It does increase the phone performance without OC , someone told me he can play dead trigger 2 at max setting (playable)with this mod:good:,note:its flashable via CWM so flash this recovery first and the MOD.
Hope this helps

Hello,
So it seems the Note 4 is not that good at 3d performance in quiet a few games, especially Grand Theft Auto 3 (atleast with snapdragon 805, not sure about the other chip they use). I presume this is because it renders at the screens native resolution, and that the snapdragon 805 is not good enough for that.
If that be the case, is it possible to force game applications to render at a lower resolution, thus making the game less jittery? I have root.
In anomaly 2 it quite good
Maybe you shouldnt use power saving mode when play these heavy 3d game

Ive come to the conclusion that thermal throttling is to blame. I haven't play a heavy 3d game without it dropping frames within 10 minutes. It an issue that needs to be addressed.
I've been able to play modern combat 5 and dead effect without any slowdowns. Exynos Note 4.

There is an app to reduce the screen resolution:

It does require root. Unfortunately I have att version and no root yet. Wish I could use this, as some of the higher end games don't run great at 1440p.

Thats correct bro, i came from S5 SD 801 and vice city (wich is more heavy than gta3) run smooth until i hit 20 mins and begins to slowdown.
I dont know at what resolution runs GTA VC on note 4 but i maxed out all settings and is super fluid and no slow downs, i being playin for 30 minutes and the smooth its not gone so far.
exynos variant.
I also have noticed some problems with Real Racing 3 and 3d Mark bench. Not as smooth as I've expected. Also on AnTuTu I get 40-49k one or two times even below 38k results so I think there is some thing we don't know about our device. I hope when Lolipop arrives this problems will be solved.
thats terrible for a 800$~ phone ! mine does excellent job on dead trigger 2 and nova 3 and riptide ! i have the exynos verison. i just got it i haven't downloaded any more games but im downloading order and chaos and dungeon hunter !
Hi all,
I just bought a note 4 sd 805 (the UK version). I expected this to be a very powerful phone, but instead I am kind of disappointed .
After playing Asphalt 8 for just 15min, the game starts to lag considerably and suffer from some serious frame rate drop.
The phone itself heats up a bit, but not a lot.
I also noticed that, if I run antutu for say 5 times in a row (with no pause), the score will drop from about 48000 to about 38000.
I still keep my note 3, which is rock solid and did not have the above behaviour (i.e. no heat at all, I can play asphalt 8 for hours with perfect quality and consistent antutu scores of about 43000).
Also my pvs is 13, which seems to be quite a good one (as per this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/info-check-share-cpu-binning-t2950180)
Do you guys think I have a faulty note 4? Should I return it?
Thanks
I dont think that you has a faulty note. Same here with s5 and sd 801 runing gta vc. In about 20 mins of gaming fps drops horrible

Thanks,
but if the latest generation of phones cannot handle tasks (i.e. games) which the previous generation (note 3 in my case) handled with easy,
doesn't that mean the the phone is not fit for purpose?
In my case I paid £580 and expected to see some improvements. The only true improvement (compare with note 3) is the camera.
The game performance is awful.
The display seems to be brighter (on auto and against direct sun light), but if I actually want to use it like that, it starts heating up and throttle after 15min.
In normal tasks (browsing and light apps) note 3 and note 4 perform on par, with sometimes note 3 being faster.
I also ran the stress test app, and it seems that the note 4 does not stay on 2.7 at all. it starts with 2.4 then quickly goes to 2.2 and 1.9 and after a few minutes it goes down to 1.1 and it stays there. My note 3 on the other hand starts with 2.27 and stays there for few minutes then goes down to 1.9 and 1.7 and then it stays between 1.5 and 1.7.
So, under heavy load snapdragon 805 perform worst than 800. Please note that the SD in my unit has the perfect binning of pvs13. The SD 800 in my note 3 is pvs 2 and it is still way more stable.
I just want to know if you guys have similar experience with the phone?

You right bro.
You can manage your thermals with custom kernel. Its a know problem, even in the lg g3 forum theres a mod to raise the values of throttle.

Disable DVFS (just for the laggy games if your phone doesn't freeze and restart) and asphalt will be perfect. You can also run games in 1080 which helps and be grateful as there are kernels supported by your phone's version that you can mess with the thermal throttle and gpu clocks. Just don't let it get too hot
I agree with you, there should be no tweaks needed to run any game, but that's unfortunately not the case, but with some work you can get it to perfect performance! Good luck!
How's the gameplay on the Exynos variant? I never had gaming issues on the Note 2
@arjun90
exynos is way better at gaming
its not laggy in asphalt 8 even after 15 minutes
On sd805 asphalt 8 is just unplayable.. it does not work well from the first minute (I mean as good as my sd800 note 3)
and after about 15min it becomes even worst.
and that is with sd805 binned 13.. My first note 4 (which I returned) was getting hot just from web browsing. I am sure the cpu was with low quality bin.
Samsung should get rid of this low quality cpus.. We pay some serious money and at the end it is just a lottery...
I am also seriously disappointed with the awful deteriorating game performance. For a phone of this price and calibre I was expecting so much more. I hope it is software related and can be fixed, but I don't want to melt my phone!
I have Canadian SM-N910W8 with SD805 and 420 Adreno just tried asphalt 8 its running fast at high setting even with power saving on. Also scored Atutu 47923.
Anyone tried Wolf among us? Game won't start after title screen?

well I don't know what to say mate I have the same cpu and gpu, Antutu for me is even above 48000 regularly about 48700
still asphalt 8 is just pretty much unplayable.. Some other games however are ok. Hope it is a software issue and sammy/app developer(gameloft) fix it.
I am non rooted and fully stock..
Have you try to greenify everything then run the game? I think it probably software.
I'm rooted but using my original stock image as base with extras - fixed everything working. Took me a while but good trends here before had lots of issues.
Yes i agree with that games like asphalt should play smooth without installing custom rom.. It is really awful.. But now after flashing kernel and flashed rom it runs smoooottthh!..
it is the first android phone I am reluctant to root (at least for now). Lollipop is coming very soon and I prefer to see what it will bring to my note.
If if works for you guys (after rooting and possibly applying custom kernel and some modifications) it is sammy fault and not the game developer. It is really frustrating. Hope sammy fix this mess soon.
Yet again blaming the chip on what is clearly a not optimized game for the 805. Software is the problem. Ya know if the game isn't optimized for that chip it will run like ****, if they update for this phone and it still runs ****ty than they did a bad job.

I don't know if this is an appropriate reply but I have both Drastic (NDS emulator) and PPSSPP (Sony PSP emulator) on my Zenfone 2. Both run smooth as butter, on every game I have played on it so far, even the graphics intensive ones.
Rayman Jungle Run.
All games I have tried on this phone are smooth as butter, bearing out the results of its performance on benchmark tests. My ZE550ML also has the advantage of only pushing 720p. I honestly don't believe you lose much from being "only" 720p either - I find my display to be perfectly vivid, clear and bright, and have to really look closely and strain my eyes to see any pixels. Games look beautiful.

Played most of the games given, the only remark i can give is some stutters (micro freeze) when playing. it happens less when i reboot the device before playing any game.
I assume this is related to the bad memory management in 550ml.

I guess many of us will use our gorgeous Xperia Tablet Z for mobile gaming. And it runs almost all the games quite well on this powerful tablet.
I'm a game enthusiast myself and I love playing games on Xperia Tablet Z. I own a Pollux and it handles most of the high end games like Modern Combat 4, Nova, Overkill, Asphalt 8 etc..
But some of the new games seem a little laggy due to much higher demand of CPU and GPU. For example we got a new game like Modern Combat 5, it's one of the best FSP/ACTION game in mobile devices and has console quality graphics. And Xperia Tablet Z plays that game well but you might see some lags while playing the game and the game plays around 23-28 Fps, which is just okay.
I've tried a lot of apps, kernels, ROMs and tips and tricks to run the games much better on our beloved Xperia Tablet Z.
Here's some recommendations that I would suggest from my more than two years of usage of Xperia Tablet Z and 11 years of experience in gaming.
[Here I mainly take Modern Combat 5 as the game for review]
Apps for graphical optimization:
GLTools (Paid):
GLTools helps you to add an extra graphic customization in games and add an extra layes of Shaders. With some changes in GLTools settings the games works fairly well but still at times when I play Modern Combat 5 the frame rates drop to somewhere between 18-25 FPS and the game gets a bit laggy.
Resolution Changer:
I've tried some resolution changer apps but most of them doesn't seem to work properly on modded ROMs but works good in stock ROM. But I do have one app that works good.
NoMone Resolution Changer is a good app to change the resolution of the screen. It's not necessary to play the game in full HD so you can just change your screen's resolution to HD (1024*720 in 200 dpi is my fav setting). When you change the resolution sometimes your navigation bar goes out of the screen. But this app provides some handy features like toggling the Navigation buttons to help you sort things out for navigation. It's a free app and makes the game work pretty well on the tablet without much reduction in graphics.
With this resolution changer I've seen much improvement in performance of the game and there's much lag reduction.
You can find this app here,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nomone.resolution_changer
Controller App:
Just for a suggestion I would recommend an app called Sixaxis Controller for controller support and mapping. Although our Xperia Tablet Z supports PS3 controller on its own, but there are some games whose controller mapping is not so good; game such as Modern Combat 4. So, here you'll need the help of Sixaxis Controller App that makes this game work pretty well with your controller. In my case I use PS3 controller for my gaming and sixaxis controller app for customizing my controllers. I love this app
Kernel
After going through a lot of research over the Web and to get a huge improvement in overall gaming performance in our lovely tablet I would suggest a custom kernel that I love and suggest to others.
EvoMix Kernel for Cm 12.1
EvoMix kernel is an awesome addition to our tablet for greater performance. Not only for playing games but also for regular usage and snappy response. I thank the developers who worked hard to bring us this awesome kernel :good:
The EvoMix kernel ramps up the CPU and GPU for extreme performance. The CPU can be overclocked to 1.7GHz and the GPU can be overclocked to 487MHz which significantly improves the overall performance of the tablet. The kernel also features I/O scheduler tweaks and lot of other improvements that makes your tablet altogether a much powerful and faster.
The EvoMix kernel can be found on this thread originally posted by @BlackAfghan.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...b-tablet-z-evomix-kernel-cyanogenmod-t3120762
ROMs
The Sony's ROM is always has too much bloatwares in it. It's the only thing that makes me not use the Stock ROM. I've played games in different ROMs and mostly all of them work good. But as I suggested earlier about the EvoMix Kernel, it's only available for CyanogenMod and CyanogenMod based ROMs like PAC ROM, crDroid etc (You can find these ROMs across the xda forum under Tablet Z Development threads). With these ROMs and with the help of EvoMix kernel you can play most of the games fairly enough without any lags. I've played Modern Combat 4 and Modern Combat 5 in CM based ROMs and they work quite well.
If you wanna stick with the rooted Stock ROM get rid of the bloatwares and disable useless apps to gain Memory and Speed. Although it won't show any significant improvements but it can give your Game a breathing space on that over-crowded bloatwares on the memory queue and CPU usage.
Mostly I play Modern Combat 4 and 5 on my Pollux (Xperia Tablet Z LTE) and here are my settings and apps that I use to get maximum performance
NoMone Resolution Changer (1024*720 at 200 dpi) for Modern Combat 5
Sixaxis Controller for Controller mapping in Modern Combat 4
CrDroid (as of now) with EvoMix kernel for boost in performance. I've played both the games on Rooted Stock 5.1.1 with all the bloatwares removed and the games works well.
I don't use GLTools anymore because I haven't seen much improvement in Modern Combat 5. But you can see some improvements in Modern Combat 4 using GLTools app with correct settings.
*****************************************
So that's it guys, all of this information is just to let you know about my experience in gaming and usage of this awesome Tablet You can try these suggestions at your own risk and make sure you do a deeper research on rooting and recovering your tablet from bootloops and bricking.
*****************************************
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I've tried some new settings with GlTools apps and the game (Modern Combat 5) seems to work quite well.
Just change the render resolution to 0.5x and downscale texture to 0.5x too. It'll help the game to run much better on the tablet Z
First of all in Modern Combat 5, Go to Settings, then Audio (The one with Speaker icon) and change the VFX setting to "Better Performance"
I donno why the GFX setting is under the "Audio" tab :/
Thanks for tips, unfortunately changing resolution with NoMone doesnt work at all on pure CM12.1 and changing it with GLTools will change it to half, but it also renders on half of screen with black parts around. Controls though are on same positions as before, so its almost impossible to control games with onscreen buttons.

The NoMone Resolution Changer works well with stock ROM but not CM 12.1.
Here's how the game (Modern Combat) looks like with Resolution Changer on Stock Lollipop 5.1.1
The Game works smooth and all controls work well.
Another tip for gaming: Disable MP decision
Disabling MP decision makes all the four cores of the CPU run instead of putting the unused core offline. This reduces the lag because all the cores are available for processing. This can reduce the battery life but give a performance boost.
The best governor settings for playing games:
CPU: Interactive
GPU: Performance
