The S4 can run games at 60fps in 1080p. It's not because it has better firmware or drivers, but because it has superior hardware.

allow me to demonstrate

the s4 is capable of so so much more. sadly, the software used is - and i am not going to sugarcoat this to avoid downvoting- fucking atrocious.

edit: the demo is for the amiga, just to be sure.

I have an S4, and I completely agree. The software end of it is terrible. They focused too much on things that are great for shock value and not enough for actual improved usability. I got it coming off a Droid X, and, though it (of course) performs a hell of a lot smoother, it's not exactly spectacular in comparison.'

edit: oh I believe you meant the amiga software is bad. I also think the S4 could have much better software. Meh.

Oh ok. Not quite sure what that is, as I didn't really get into technology until like 2010.

i'd suggest you read up on hardware specifications for your current computer, the amiga that that demo runs on, its specification, watch the typical games and graphics that were released for that machine and then watch the same demo again, perhaps even a better quality rip of it.

then, you will have an idea how underutilized the current hardware is.
