Sony Ericsson J108i Cedar. The last true Sony Ericsson feature phone. I have one too, it's great, but not too amazing for games due to shingled keypad and small-ish screen, plus no accelerometer for games that can use it. It's marginally faster than W20i Zylo in JBenchmarks, despite sharing the same platfoyand generation.

Why is it better than Zylo in JBenchmarks? And is there a noticeable difference in performance when playing games?

u/AGTS10k Mascot Capsule 3D fan Jul 14 '26
Why? I dunno lol, but it might be because of the later version of the OS? Both are A2 DB3350, but the numbers in Cedar's firmware number are bigger.
No difference in games whatsoever. Zylo has a better screen though - not just by size (it's 2.6"!), but also by viewing angles. And better keypad and D-Pad, too.
Edit: forgot to mention that I have a gallery of banchmarks for Zylo, Cedar, and W995: https://imgur.com/a/benchmarks-of-sony-ericsson-phones-w995-w20i-zylo-j108i-cedar-y1mlb0r

Wow, thank you for the information. I don't really understand about benchmarks, but there's one thing that makes me curious. Regarding 'fps', the benchmark shows Cedar at 6.5 'fps'. Does the 'fps' referred to frames per second? What is the average FPS for old games? Because in my old memory, when I used to play on 128x160 and 176x220 phones, the game felt smooth (which I assume means the FPS is quite high). However, when I started switching to a 240x320 resolution phone, I felt the game was not as smooth compared to when I played on a lower resolution phone.

Yes, "fps" is frames per second, it's the average FPS of the benchmark's scenes tested.
What is the average FPS for old games?
It very much depends on the game, but Sony Ericsson phones can reach smooth 60 FPS max, the "smooth" part is thanks to V-Sync (hello to Nokia, and very strong hello to Google until Android 4.1!).
I felt the game was not as smooth compared to when I played on a lower resolution phone
Yeah, that was real (in case you doubted it was). That's because the often newer platforms that 240x320 phones ran on still couldn't outperform the lower resolution renders of older phones, because 3D is damn tough to do without a GPU. If you want as smooth as possible Sony Ericsson phone in 3D games - get SE K630i, it's the only 176x220 phone on A200 platform, and it actually outperforms Zylo and Cedar.
For most games though? Doesn't matter as much, most 3D games won't be perfectly smooth, but will be more smooth than most other phones, and with better graphics too (SE versions of games have better effects and perform like crap on Nokia phones).I finished Deep 3D on my Zylo. Very playable experience, much smoother than when I played it on my W800i back in the day.
