Mico XCOM:EW on mobile begs to differ.
Steam link begs to differ
Ok boomer
Khaffit XCOM:EW is the expansion version of XCOM: Enemy Unknown, XCOm Enemy Within in full name.
It also isn’t a bad port, it isn’t missing anything that a fully bought version of XCOM 1 on PC has. Yes it can’t do mods, but that would be the nature of it on mobile. However when I want to do a quick tactical mission or play some on the go when not near my laptop or desktop, I can play the mobile version.
Yes the graphics don’t look great but that isn’t the point of XCOM as a game.
Also the further my point to the main comment, Mini Metro, and Plague Inc. are also on mobile, Mini Metro being an excellent simple puzzle game, well mostly simple anyway, and Plague Inc. is the same as the PC version even, fully, no graphical changes.
It's like the OP hasn't heard or have seen handheld gaming, you know something that been around 30+ years.

Then Gamers Nexus can do a VRM review for different Phones running the same hardware.
An Android box would be better suited for such an experiment. I would like to see what clocks those mobile SKUs can actually reach.
Samsung DeX baby! I use it on my second monitor via a KVM. It's the future... phones will NEED easy keyboard/mouse and desktop modes.
Ubuntu touch?
Honestly, it wouldn't be difficult to use technology with ~2010 performance in phones, we just need the software for it. If we had actual Windows running, we could game a lot of games. But it wouldn't be too usable since you had no keyboard and very small interfaces (problem with touch).

I wonder if this matters, I thought that most recent Samsung galaxy phones have a glass back cover. So will that be a factor that the back from the galaxy dispatches heat worse than to have a metal cover ?
I'm curious if just gluing a CPU heatsink to the back of your device might not work just as well. I mean they come in all shapes and sizes, you can sand down the rough edges of the sink and they can probably be cooled with ambient air since they wouldn't be in a closed environment. And if you wanted to you could add a fan- I guess. They make tablet and cellphone grips that look like this already so all you would really be doing is changing out the material with a better heat conductor.

I'm probably late but, I own a red magic 3. Quick* review:
I bought the phone because of its huge battery, it delivers in that category.
Camera has a great sensor but it's over sharpened to heck in software.
90hz screen is nice, gets fairly dark on the low end, doesn't get terribly bright though.
Dual speakers are nice, and having an audio jack is very nice.
USB C is nice, I'll never go back to micro B, and USB OTG is fun to play with, and useful at times due to lack of an SD card slot.
Dual SIM is nice.
It's good at playing pubg mobile, and really nice for Pokemon go (see battery).
According to my girlfriend, the only person I really call, it sucks at being a cell phone.
Screen protectors and cases are easy to find for the phone, and even without them the phone is relatively durable (don't drop it on your face it's heavy)
RGB lights on the back are stupid but fun, the side triggers are actually nice, but my right trigger acts up from time to time.
*I guess it wasn't that quick. If I forgot anything ask lol
What was it's price?
I would be really curious to see what, if any, performance differences there are between my ROG 2 and the Red Magic 3. I'm not really a mobile gamer but I really love the 120hz display.
The ROG 2 also comes with one of those attachable fan things and I wonder how much better it is if you are using one that was designed specifically for the phone. Added benefit being it plugs directly into the phone via a side usb c port and has an extra usb and headphone jack on the fan itself.
@@xcskier29 Snapdragon 865 phones are already coming out. There's really no point in Red Magic 3 or ROG 2 anymore.
@@philistine3260 That's not what I'm saying. You watched the video right? I was just wondering how the external fan attachment that is built specifically for the ROG 2 would compare under heavy load to the Red Magic's internal fan at keeping temperatures under control.
@@philistine3260 The point would be that the phone might drop in price I guess... Also by far IIRC only Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro (neither are mass produced yet) got Snapdragon 865 so the "point" can stay for like 3 more months, not to mention it's still more heavily marketed in media creation and consumption, rather than gaming (so, thermal throttling might be a bit more aggressive).
Anyone remember when this was called "This Ugly Phone Cooler ACTUALLY WORKS"?
Well I do.
Video: We're going to use a TEC
Me: RIP battery life
Linus: Dirty secret. They are extremely inefficient
Edit: Oh good, they didn't even attempt to try to sell people on just using their phone to power it.
I feel like just feeling around for where you think is warmer was a good idea for placement of the cooler, the processor is actually located about 180 degrees from where you placed it, i would of liked it placed right on the processor as according to teardowns you have it sitting just over the battery.

I have that cooler for my phone. It really cools the phone and maintains performance. I think the design is preferably for iphones because the position of the cooling pad is directly at the heat area of the iPhone x and newer models which is directly below the back camera(if held vertically).

I'm kinda surprised you guys haven't tried overclocking smartphones... I've had my Xperia XA1 Ultra and my XZ2 both overclocked. It can make quite a difference.

@@temanbradley8505 Install a custom kernel with overclocking support. Then use a root app to choose available frequencies.
Although, if your phone is throttling anyway, it won't help sustained loads. It would help only if the device can cool down between bursts above stock.
@@temanbradley8505 Flash your phones rom/kernel that has overclocking capabilities on the CPU/GPU. My S4 runs at 1890mhz stock, with a custom 8.1 oreo rom and sides kernel, I've been able to overclock it to 2136mhz. The only downside with that is obviously, temperature control and thermal throttling... Since I don't care about the phone, I disabled thermal throttling - now it won't throttle but now it'll burn your fingertips off when playing games, I've seen temps as high as 96-110c with throttling turned off. Its been like that for 2-3 years - no issues on a 7-year old phone.
@@theflukey4114 Only downside is that it'll destory our batteries pretty quickly, not being able to hold a steady charge. we end up having to replace batteries otherwise it's left plugged in as some sort of TV console or other uses like a mini server, or a runescape bot, or a security camera monitor and server.. the uses are limited only to the hardware... the way it should be for all phones *sigh :l

I'm surprised at these results. I've seen other benchmarks that suggest that the fan in the Red Dragon 3s doesn't provide enough cooling effect to boost performance.

I think phones should have a piece of copper on the SoC that can be accessed from the rear with a removable cover on it (the cover is so you don't burn your fingers while holding the phone) so when you put something like a case or other accessory on it, it has the opportunity to act as a proper cooler.

Back in 2008-ish I added an old Pentium 1 cooler to the back of my phone because my phone would get so hot when both charging in the car and using maps that it would quickly slow down and stop charging then die. I did it by adding thermal paste on the block and surrounding it in hot glue then sticking it to the phone. It was very easy to rewire a car charger to use the full 12 volts of the car, which I added a standard molex plug for the fan. It worked great though it was a bit bulky and stabby in the pocket if I put it in the wrong way.

@@resanpyrice9420 I'm hoping someone sees this experiment and trys it out.
Perhaps a test where you are using the phone on cold conditions which Gloves . At least those of us in colder countries could say we have a benefit
@@TheCoomer lol
I mostly do it to cool the phone after the over heating message comes up and it does work
I love new phone tech, thanks preretirement Linus.
I use those cool box sealed blocks and a tea towel for fast charging and game playing
Linus, those 5V TEC's love power, I have played around with a few of them myself, and my findings are that they draw around 3A on startup, but as they reach their 'thermoequilibrium of operation', they are drawing around 2.2-2.8A from a 5V power source; your bottleneck is probably either A: that your power bank can only supply 1-2A of current, or B: that the terrible implementation of the micro-USB is limiting current to around 2A. if they had used a type-c USB, and specified that you utilize a power source capable of sustained 3A, than this product would almost definitely perform much better.
I know this comment is very old now but I have a question. What part number(?) were you using?
I am planning to use these 5v TECs for the same purpose, a DIY phone cooler like in the video.
@@yubinator7455 I think they were 4903 or something
This is the only comment I want to see despite these "linus linus" comments. I mean, you're absolutely correct. the powerbank can't deliver more power to the cooling fan which as a result slow perfomance. he could have been used 2A-3A charging adapter and see its full potential
@@FirstGateNAN the problem is that most of the USB port of the coolers are using are the cheap/ standard ones so the micro USB will only go up to 2A or worse. I think it won't even support the 5V 3A of power bricks nowadays(but maybe it will, I might be wrong). All the Phone coolers that use TEC modules that I see online only support up to 5V 1.5A to 2A only and the expensive ones support 5V 3A to 9V 2A.
cool your gaming ... thing ... with a peltier, haven' t heart that since the days of the Athlon XP.
They were great chips. I remember when they surpassed pentium 3s. With a Radeon 9800pro it was an awesome system at the time.
I guess you missed Intel's new cooler
Someone should make a handheld dock that has the coller built in and a big battery pack etc so u just pop the phone in and its not all in your way because it is shaped like a steamdeck kinda thing
was waiting for him to put the cooler on the phone with the fan to see if it did anything at all.
Use Wells' particle accelerator 🤣
