whats the best ps1 emulator?

[QUOTE=Pandamobile;31632605]My friend is trying to decide what phone to get, the EVO 3D on Rogers, or the Nexus S on Telus. I told him to go for the Nexus S. Opinions?[/QUOTE]Evo 3D is much better than the Nexus S in my opinion.

[QUOTE=SilverHedgehog;31632724]Evo 3D is much better than the Nexus S in my opinion.[/QUOTE] LF Optimus is the best 3D phone though :v:

[QUOTE=TippZ;31632620]whats the best ps1 emulator?[/QUOTE] Old version of psx4droid (V2) is the most stable version I've seen Developers have also released it for free, because google banned it in market [editline]10th August 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=TippZ;31632620]whats the best ps1 emulator?[/QUOTE] Old version of psx4droid (V2) is the most stable version I've seen Developers have also released it for free, because google banned it in market

FPse is the best PS1 emulator by far [editline]9th August 2011[/editline] Also I want an LG Optimus 3D too :suicide:

[QUOTE=superstepa;31632974]Old version of psx4droid (V2) is the most stable version I've seen Developers have also released it for free, because google banned it in market[/QUOTE] Too bad it gets it's ass handed to it by FPse. Though FPse isn't free, but well worth it.

i got fpse, it works awesome thx!

Rate informative for EVO 3D, Zing for Infuse 4G, Useful for Nexus S Trying to help my friend decide :)

[QUOTE=Pandamobile;31633656]Rate informative for EVO 3D, Zing for Infuse 4G, Useful for Nexus S Trying to help my friend decide :)[/QUOTE] Oh man, that's tough. EVO 3D is a good choice but the LG Optimus 3D is better :-/ Guessing American

[QUOTE=Pandamobile;31633656]Rate informative for EVO 3D, Zing for Infuse 4G, Useful for Nexus S Trying to help my friend decide :)[/QUOTE]evo 3g is the most powerful out of these.

Picked up a droid charge today. It's actually pretty good, althought I guess I'm not one to talk since the only other smartphone I've had is the original droid.

[QUOTE=Hunt3r.j2;31633500]I thought CDMA's UMTS equivalent was EVDO or something like that.[/QUOTE] EvDO is a data only standard that operates aside the CDMA voice system. UMTS is a complete standard covering voice and data that is incompatible with existing 2G GSM services.

That OMAP4 is a fucking beast. [editline]9th August 2011[/editline] If he's buying a new device on contract why on earth would he go with Rogers? They have the worst network and worst devices out of the Canadian carriers.

This lawsuit reminds me of [url=http://news.cnet.com/8301-13506_3-20089381-17/apple-sued-over-speedy-mac-os-x-startup/]Apple being sued because OSX starts up fast.[/url]

Well, my upgrade is in May/June/July 2012, somewhere around then. I can either get the 3D or Photon within the next week or hold out and get something better on sprint's network. By then, will the Galaxy S2 be out for sprint?

[QUOTE=PyroCF;31636904]Quad-core phones and Android ICS will be out then hopefully[/QUOTE] And Krait, 720p displays on 4.3/4.5 in displays with Sony or Samsung OLED screens that run at 100% NTSC gamut and a white point as close to 6500k as possible (ahem.)

Sony doesn't have the power to mass manufacture OLED based screens. Also you realize that we don't use the NTSC gamut for anything but televisions right? Everything is measured with sRGB when it comes to the PC and mobile world. Also just so you know you can tune your SAMOLED+ screen to achieve what is very close to 100% sRGB coverage. That's a lot better than the 27 or so percent the typical S-IPS panel achieves. [editline]10th August 2011[/editline] In fact if you're going for color accuracy the SAMOLED+ panel at 140% coverage is still more color accurate than a S-IPS panel. Only around 40 percent off opposed to around 73 percent off on a S-IPS based screen. [editline]10th August 2011[/editline] Actually looking over the specifications that's really generous considering an S-IPS panel only displays 16.7 million colors. The gap might be even wider then I initially thought.

So my only Android ( my pride and joy Viewsonic Gtablet, was actually very powerful) is now physically dead as a result of my mom and dad trying to save money on a "simple" self-repair (the A/C jack wouldn't charge). Does anyone know of a cheap tablet that features: -good battery time -wireless internet without a carrier -multitouch -GPS -strong both physically (so I could entertain myself at my desk without worry of dropping it) and internally (rooting, installing apps etc basically it doesn't break down if I install an app wrong) -Flash Player

Does the evo 3d have a 3d adjustment system like what the 3ds has with its slider?

[QUOTE=meppers;31638538]Does the evo 3d have a 3d adjustment system like what the 3ds has with its slider?[/QUOTE] Yes, you can turn it on and off.

Everything is measured with sRGB when it comes to the PC and mobile world.[/QUOTE] One of those "coming soon" deals, pretty sure PS Vita will be running Sony OLED screens, and soon after that, Sony phone screens. sRGB and NTSC have a difference of about 5% and my stupidity range is greater than that. :v: [QUOTE=garrynohome;31637996]Also just so you know you can tune your SAMOLED+ screen to achieve what is very close to 100% sRGB coverage.

[QUOTE=garrynohome;31637996]In fact if you're going for color accuracy the SAMOLED+ panel at 140% coverage is still more color accurate than a S-IPS panel. Only around 40 percent off opposed to around 73 percent off on a S-IPS based screen.[/QUOTE] S-IPS is around 24 bit color, or 65-70 percent sRGB. Overcoverage is considered to be worse than undercoverage, if DisplayMate can be trusted. [QUOTE=garrynohome;31637996]Actually looking over the specifications that's really generous considering an S-IPS panel only displays 16.7 million colors.

Ummm... I'm considering returning my SGS2 and picking up an HTC Wildfire S instead............ SGS2 is amazing yeah, but tbh I won't be using all the power behind it.. feels like so much wasted power. I just want a phone that can make calls, text, browse a little, play music, and use some apps here and there... Plus I'd be saving like $350..... dat money

[QUOTE=meppers;31638538]Does the evo 3d have a 3d adjustment system like what the 3ds has with its slider?[/QUOTE] There's a software slider in all programs that have 3D.

Remember me posting a 9to5mac link? Here's the aftermatch: I started with 39 points, now I'm down to -50.

[QUOTE=SilverHedgehog;31643454]Remember me posting a 9to5mac link? Here's the aftermatch: I started with 39 points, now I'm down to -50.[/QUOTE] Upvoted. :) I wonder how this will end, I sincerely doubt it (Tab 10.1) would get permanently banned from Europe.

Just picked up an Asus Transformer! Does anyone have any suggestions for apps/ widgets that are good for tablets?
