A Series is just plain trash for gaming.

For reference i am comparing this to an iphone 6. 

First off i would like to say the specs for this phone are significantly better than the iphone 6 but somehow manages to have half the framerate which i dont even know HOW is possible. Second thing is that apps on google play store are INFESTED with ads. Something that you NEVER see on my iphone 6. Third thing, the frame drops that i get are in ALL games that i had compared and in games that required optimal performance from the player it was virtually unplayable. 

I know that its a budget phone, but when comparing a 420$ phone to a 99$ iphone, thats tradgic. Please, please, please, PLEASE. WORK ON YOUR SOFTWARE SAMSUNG. PLEASE.

Its the screen more than the actual frames. Its literally so choppy compared to my iphone. to put this in perspective i was playing an intensive game such as piano tiles on both and i felt like i was dying to lag significantly less on my iphone.

i will take some tests on 3dmark, geekbenk and do some screen tests on both and get back to you.

yes that seems in like with what I would expect. It definitely isn't a hardware issue and the fact the GPU is scoring well in tests shows it isn't a problem with that either. it may be a software thing with the certain games/apps, which if it is happening consistently in EVERY game then I think has to relate to game software such as Samsung game launcher or game tuner. as it is performing perfectly fine in the benchmarks where these software tools do not extend to. If it were only one or two games having this issue, I could attribute it to bad optimisation, like one (obscure) game in particular would run at like 2fps on an s8 I tried it on while it was running fine on a A3. But that doesn't, from what I can understand, seem to be the case with your experience

its the a71 non 5g. 420$ phone.
