Can anyone confirm or reject that Xperia U, although having a good spec sheet, performs badly in games?
Has anybody tried MEGA JUMP on his Xperia U?
Run it, and share whether it runs smooth or lags...

Errm, the U is a ENTRY LEVEL phone. What did you expect from it? It's good enough for most stuff, but it's clearly not going to be a graphical powerhouse for a £150 phone.
If you want that, you pay more...

but the chipset, GPU and the resolution (which comes to count in the amount of pixels to be rendered) are the same as Xeria P, isn't it? set aside RAM amoun, which I actually managed to get over 220MB Free RAM when system starts, thanks to root and removing bloatwares, they should ne the same, should'n?!!
Should put in the title which phone it's about ....
But looking up the spec sheet the P and U are the same but feature a single core mali 400, no mention of a clockspeed comparison but the galaxy s2 featured a quadcore mali 400 and its graphics were only average when compared to adreno 200 series and powervr 540.
sony could also be partly to blame as the adreno 220 in the xperia s under performs its spec sheet as well.

Yep that's the story of a lot of their phones... Underperforming from what you'd expect considering the spec sheet.

it IS a huge difference, but not when you are running GB and you have MORE THAN 240MB free RAM..!!
When you just start your phone, and no other app is running yet, and you have 240MB Free RAM, then you cannot say that P has more RAM than U, because you have sufficient and enough RAM at that time to run a Mid-Range game like Mega Jump...
F... NovaThor chipset, I had Xperia Neo before, it easily outperformed this goddamn phone, although havin single core cpu...
we should also compare the system reserved ram ...
i have 773MB of my 1024MB as Total Ram in Android. so there are 251MB for System (Memory for i.e Camera and 3D Graphics)!!
i dont think that U takes 251MB from 512MB for 3D Graphics.....

I've said this once, I'll say it again, on the Linux kernel, free RAM is wasted RAM.
I have an Xperia Play (phone designed for gaming) qcom msm7x30 w/ adreno205 that has the same amount of RAM as the U, and quite frankly, the Mali400 in the U rips the adreno205 to pieces.

The adreno is the Xperia S is one of the best optimized. It outperforms all the other adreno 220 phones. I have no idea what you are talking about. Look at the S compared to the Sensation in benchmarks and the Sensation gets worked.

Lol, but last year 1G of RAM was more than enough. Where getting crazy. Duel-Core, and 1G of RAM was perfect, and still is. Quad-Core, and 1G of RAM is Over kill. Just trollin' it up. I'm sticking with Duel-Core until the next Nexus. If Google releases a Quad-Core, then I'll get a GSIII. But as of now, I'm enjoying the "Basic" Duel-Core with 1G of RAM.

Completely agree. 1GB of RAM is NOT enough for power multitasking. I will be waiting for 2GB version too. I am currently working with SWAP Partition in order to "FIX" low memory issues... i hope with SGS3 no more.
i hate when folk are like "DUH WHAT DO YOU NEED TWO GIG OF RAM FOR?"
what difference does it make what its for, we want it ok?
why wouldnt we want it?
its like saying what do you want a ferrarri for when you have a volvo in the drive?
or asking what do you want a million dollars for when you only need ten for your lunch?

I think it may be 2GB RAM on GSM GSIII but probably near the end of the year.
I'm upgrading from a Galaxy Fit, which has less than 200MB usable RAM; so I think I'll be happy with only 1GB RAM.
Hi to all!
I have a doubt, in the stock rom, it apears to have 700 mb of ram
I have installed cm10 yesterday, and it shows the same, 700 mb
how much ram have we in the xperia S??? in the original box, it shows 1024 mb!!!
Part of the ram is used by the GPU (graphic card). This is why the system can use "just" around 700 mega bytes.
300mb used by system itself.
dont worry
But I think this is lot of wasted ram.
300 gpu + 400 os =700MB not available
Sony should indicate that this phone has 768MB not 1GB like MIUI did.
They shouldn't include the 300MB lost by the gpu.

It is a comparison of two different devices. If you just take the Xperia S and slap an additional 1GB RAM chip on it, you will never notice the difference. It's Tegra vs Exynos and Sense vs TouchWiz way more than 1GB vs 2GB.

Got a Xperia U although not really used it yet (waiting for ICS), but now seen the Xperia J for the same price, I know the U is dual core, but then the J has micro SD and a bigger screen, how much weaker is the processor?
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4930&idPhone2=4437
I cant really tell much difference to my single core Motorola Defy overclocked at 1GHz and my dual core Xperia S running at the default 1.5GHz ill be honest. There is obviously a difference but its not a breath taking one thats for sure.
Way weaker. It is just an redesinged xperia 11. Uses the same outdated laggy ics rom. Nothing compared to nxt phones

Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app
that device isn't very good... the same Adreno GPU that X8 has, kinda sucks, and the processor is kinda slowwwwwww
I personally would go for the Xperia U, is clearly faster, better CPU and GPU, the same amount of memory the lack of memory card slot, and the smaller screen can make you think twice before you buy it but belive me, it is more than enought
I was going to buy the Xperia J until I seen the spec. The adreno 200 gpu is very weak and would really struggle with any decent game or even rom.
I now have the Xperia U and if you can get over the fact that the 3.5" screen is the exact same width as the tiny x8 then it is a great phone. The screen detail is very good and the phone sits perfectly in the hand.
