tyson Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Hi all, Looking at some Android tablets for testing my HTML5 games on. Would it be better to choose a Samsung or a generic no-name brand? I'm leaning towards a Samsung because I hear that there are more Samsung specific bugs, such as with OpenGL acceleration. Plus it is the one with more market share. Or does it not matter much at all?

mentuat Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I chose a 7inch Samsung Tab 2 for exactly the reasons you mentioned - has large market share and there are specific samsung flavour android issues to work around. Also, it's a very average tablet in terms of performance (so useful for testing) the space to work with in the browser is a bit odd and a different ratio to apple devices, they're pretty cheap and easy to find second hand and can install multiple browsers on themAll in all - a pretty crap tablet but ideal for testing!

champignon champion Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Going with the one with biggest market share is a good idea... Especially if it decides the minimum performance required Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
