M8, s5 and z2 are good for gaming but no one plays asphalt 8 as smooth as iphone 5s. And asphalt 8 is a one year older game. I can bet these phones will stutter when asphalt 9 comes out.
Anyway, there are people who purchase phone for gaming.
Regarding the note 4 launch. It's closer to 1.5 day than 1 day. I'm excited about it but I'm certainly not going to buy it or any phone unless my s4 becomes unusable or irrelevant and that's not gonna happen until next year.
Also there is one more phone I'm excited about. It's the xperia z3 compact. And we can't forget the iphone 6 with it's beast apple a8 processor.

There was a blue hue issue on my previous Galaxy S5 on low-light photos as well.

I never faced any problem with playing games on my current M8 as well as my previous Galaxy S5. Seriously, people buy phones for play games???
Of course you can get higher fps in a low resolution display. That's why Galaxy Alpha has higher fps than any other smartphone. For example, I can increase the fps on a game by lowering the resolution on my PC. Same hardware, lower resolution and higher fps.
Anyway, I can't wait until tomorrow. I'm waiting for the Note 4. If it impresses me, I'm ready to buy it.

However, AFAIK only m7 has this problem and m8 doesn't have this issue.
If your phone has this issue, get a replacement.

Though i agree nothing can match tegra k1 GPU now. I'm waiting to see how powervr gx6650(iphone 6) and mali t760mp16(note 4) perform in front of k1.
In phones nothing can still match galaxy alpha level of framerates. It has a better GPU than adreno 330 and has much less pixels to push. The result is 60 fps in all current games as well a as good future proofing.

It has the console level graphics that no any phone or tab can match with it. The price also reasonable compared to what it offers.
The Snapdragon 801 version of Galaxy S5, HTC M8 or Xperia Z2 all of them has the same gaming performance, they is no any visible difference on them.

Actually note 3 has 3 GB RAM. So there is around 700 MB dedicated as VRAM and 2.3 GB is available. On the other hand m8 can't do that as it has only 2 GB RAM. So it only gives around 300 MB for gaming.
Sense is lighter than touchwiz. I perfectly agree. It's also better looking and faster. But that doesn't mean that touchwiz consumes more RAM. In fact, touchwiz is one of the best skins in RAM management. My s4 always had more than 500 MB RAM free on kitkat.
I agree that m8 has a better GPU which is slightly overclocked. But that'll have a very less difference. Around 1 or 2 fps at max.
On the other hand, the phones i suggested were galaxy alpha and xperia z1 compact. These phones have 720p displays and powerful GPUs. These will fare much better in gaming compared to both m8 and g3. Also due to less load on GPU, they'll heat up lesser.

I bought M8 and it's absolutly stunning. Smooth and fast OS, fantastic screen resolution, excelent wi-fi and data response, the only incredible stereo speakers on market.....and, last but not least, the most beautiful, sexy, elegant, and feel-in hardware in the smartphone panorama. Handle it and you love it.

AnonD-300385, 31 Aug 2014Friends plzz suggst me which is beeter htc one m8 or lg g3 ...i need the phone for gaming........ moreIf you want a phone for gaming. Get a phone with powerful processor and less resolution.
For example, g3 has a QHD display. That means there are more pixels to push and hence it gives you lower framerates.
In gaming, m8 won't be much better than note 3 as they use similar processors and same resolution.
For gaming, I'd suggest either galaxy alpha or xperia z1 compact. My recommendation would be alpha as it has a bigger screen for note immersive game play and it has a better GPU too.
Alpha will give you around 3 times the framerates that g3 would give in demanding titles. Z1 compact will give you 2 times of g3.
You can also get iphone 5s. That'll also go great with gaming but it had smaller screen.
If you can wait, iphone 6 and z3 compact are coming.
About the heating, any phone will heat up under high load. They don't have heat sinks or fans. Use a case to avoid heating.
Have a nice day
