    Hi all,

    My son recently lost his Sony Xperia Play (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-Smart-Memory/dp/B005SFZYZS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368604793&sr=8-1&keywords=sony+experia+play) phone and is looking for a replacement. Given his primary use is watching YouTube and playing games he might be as well off just getting another Xperia Play but before he does I'd like to get some input from those in the know here.

    Is the Xperia Play the best game playing Android phone or are there other models which have faster processors and more memory albeit without the slide out play pad which would allow him to play the latest more processor heavy games? The Xperia Play was struggling with some of the more modern games and has very limited storage.

    Cheers,

    Ben

    If you looking for proper games look for one thats compatable with six axis app and get a PS3 controller.

    An extra couple of quid yes (app 1-2 quid and controller around 30) but it makes gaming so much better not having to use the touch screen on some of the games. there are coughrumourscough that you can put roms and emulators on it for example the n64 and zelda but thats illegal and nobody would do something like that right!?

    i have an s3 and it passes the bus journeys nicely and you can also get a gameklip (~30 quid that effectively turns it into a handheld console.
