When it comes to mobile gaming, the best age to be living is today. Not only do we have a wide selection of high quality games provided by popular casinos like
this new offering, but we also have top-notch smartphones that are continuously upgraded with serious hardware every day, in the hopes of providing any phone user with the same computing, organizing and even gaming power that desktop computers and consoles have been offering for years.
However, not every phone user can enjoy the same experience, just like not any casino can provide it. If you want serious gaming on the move, you will need a good device to handle the gaming software but also a solid data connection to save you the frustration of lagging wherever you go. So, if you’ve wondered about the best devices and networks for online casino games, take a look at these top choices.
#3 OnePlus 3:
The underdog of the mobile world , OnePlus’ flagship device came out only a while ago but it didn’t take long before praise for it spread like wildfire through the mobile world. The 3, just like the other devices in this list, has the same Snapdragon 820 and Adreno 530 processors, but when it comes to internal memory the phone takes the lead with its whopping 6GB of RAM. In fact, the only concern for this phone would be the low 1080 x 1920 resolution and pixel density of 401 ppi, but for almost half the price of the S7 Edge can you really complain? Also, OnePlus have reportedly stated that their Optic AMOLED is
superior to Super AMOLEDs and the low resolution is not even noticeable. In the end, it all comes down to your personal preference.
# 2 Galaxy s7 Edge:
Is there anything this phone can’t do? Samsung’s number one device is armed with a Snapdragon 820 CPU, 4GB RAM, and the Adreno 530 GPU â€" serious hardware that put this phone at the frontlines of mobile gaming. The S7 Edge also has a 3600 mAh battery that will keep you playing for hours, as well as one of the best phone displays around - the 5.5 inch, 1440 x 2560 pixel, edged Super AMOLED screen that just screams with vibrant colors. The phone is one of the best gaming devices of today, but sadly it’s also one of the most expensive ones.
# 1 HTC 10:
Boasting nearly the same specs as Samsung’s flagship device, the HTC 10 is a force to be reckoned with. Just like the S7 Edge, the 10 has the Snapdragon 820 CPU, 4 GB RAM, and the Adreno 530 GPU, but what makes it different is its smaller 5.2 inch Super LCD5 screen that has the same resolution (but a better pixel density of 565 ppi), as well as its less powerful battery of 3000 mAh. However, the HTC 10 also has a dual speaker system and slightly more affordable price tag, which can be the defining traits for some mobile gamers.
Best Networks:
# 3 Vodafone:
The number one network when it comes to promotions, Vodafone is also one of the best networks for mobile gaming. Their average download speed over a 4G connection is 12.79Mbps, which is very close to what Optus offer, and they have a solid connection in smaller towns and cities as well.
Vodafone also have a network of MVNOs (mobile virtual network operators) that sell their plans very cheap, although they will only give you access to their 3G internet. However, when you consider that their average 3G download speed of 4.76Mbps is the fastest in the country and enough to cover a number of casinos, Vodafone make up for a very solid choice.
# 2 Optus:
Optus is only second to Telstra when it comes to coverage, but in the years ahead we might see that change as the operator continues expanding its coverage over Australia. When it comes to speed, the average download speed for Optus is 12.87Mbps, which is more than enough to give you an enjoyable casino experience.
However, even though they are rapidly expanding, the 4G coverage of Optus is still at its best in urban and metropolitan areas, while the reception at rural areas differs according to location. But the upside is that Optus also sell their 4G internet to MVNOs, which means that you can find great internet for lower prices than Telstra.
# 1 Telstra:
Australia’s number one mobile network according to user numbers, Telstra has long been associated with quality of service and reception, but also the highest price tag. Telstra has the best phone coverage outside of rural areas, which makes it the number one choice for those gamers who travel a lot in the countryside or live in rural areas which other operators can’t cover efficiently. Telstra also have the
fastest 4G internet with a download rate of 17.09 Mbps.
