What you need to know as a mobile gamer

If you want to do something well, you must first sharpen your tools. Therefore as a mobile gamer, it is important to have a powerful smartphone so that we can perform well in our mobile games. There are a lot of criteria that decides whether a smartphone is good for gaming, and here is what you need to know as a mobile gamer.

Bigger display, bigger viewing area

When playing mobile games (especially shooters such as PUBG Mobile), it is important to have a clear and big display, so that we can get a wider view and thus land our attacks more accurately. There are a lot of smartphones with a big screen now. For example, HONOR View20 is having a 6.3-inch All-View display which is just good for gaming. Thanks to the 4.50mm ultra-small in-screen camera, it has no notch and offers an impressive 91.8% body-to-screen ratio.

Decent CPU reduces lags

If you want to enjoy all those graphics/performance intensive mobile games at ease, a smartphone with a decent CPU is a must. A good CPU promises a good device performance, which means you can multitask as well as enjoy mobile games smoothly without any lags. One of the best smartphone processors would be Kirin 980, it comes with a lot of AI features to optimize device performance and reduces power wasting too.

Good GPU enhances gaming experience

While a powerful CPU can offer great performance, you will still need a good GPU to back it up. Certain technologies like the new GPU Turbo 2.0 are proven useful in enhancing the gaming experience. Devices with GPU Turbo 2.0 will be optimized to offer a smooth and stable FPS for mobile gaming. Along with the quick touch response boosted by GPU Turbo 2.0, you can take actions faster thus gain advantages against other players.

Overheating slows down game performance

Playing mobile games continuously for a prolonged period often results in an overheated phone, and we certainly don’t want that. Nobody would want to hold an overheated smartphone in their hands, moreover it slows down device performance too. The good thing is, some smartphones come with an efficient cooling system. HONOR View20 is having a Liquid Cooling System, an S-shaped heat pipe to cool down a wide area of heat. We tested the device and it stays cool even after a few hours of gaming!

Longer battery life, more hours of entertainment

A long-lasting battery would be great because you can enjoy more hours of gaming without having to recharge your device frequently. A 4000mAh battery like HONOR View20’s is good enough for gaming. From our experience, it can last more than 6 hours of intensive gaming or more than a day of solid usage. It recharges really fast as well, we can get around 50% charge in just 30 minutes.

So as a mobile gamer, these are what you need to know and we do have a recommendation for you. It is the HONOR View20, which you can now purchase it in Malaysia at only RM1,999 – such a valuable price for the 6+128GB variant! If you need more information about the device, you can visit the official HONOR site or Facebook.
