2013-09-04
hey everybody I'm Chris what you ask we answer its android authority qa4 September for 2013 our first question this week comes from our who asks when will the LG g2 come to sprint it looks like the g2 should be coming to verizon and AT&T around the middle of this month there's no official word on when it will come to sprint but I'm thinking it'll be sooner rather than later on a sarah asks if I benchmark my phone with an 22 and get a result can this result get higher or lower over time does it change yes and to two scorers change like crazy which is why when I review a device I actually run it ten times in different situations and then come up with the average it can also change from a firmware update or software upgrade for example with the nexus 4 we noticed that antutu scores were higher on the nexus for running 4.3 then they were on 4.2 though Lev says hey Chris I'm getting a nexus 7 HD and Nexus 4 after your recommendation a few days ago for an android phone for two hundred and fifty dollars would you use the stock google rom or would you recommend replacing it with cyanogenmod or paranoid android since you're already running stock android i personally wouldn't recommend switching to a different rom for one you can always customize your phone using different launchers and since they're both Nexus devices you'll be getting updates as soon as they're ready the only time I would really recommend changing to a different rom is if it has a feature that you just can't get otherwise Thomason omkar had similar questions asking will the Moto X be coming to the UK and when will the Moto X be released internationally so far there's no official word on the Moto X outside of the Americas specifically in the UK if you go to motorola's UK website there's a message that says we're working on something new so it doesn't seem too likely that it would be the Moto X I'm shul asks what according to you is the ideal screen size of a smartphone obviously this is just opinion and not that long ago I probably would have said something smaller but with bezels shrinking I would say around four and a half to five inches is the sweet spot it's big enough that you can watch movies comfortably but at the same time you can actually fit the phone and give your pocket Alex asks hey Chris what are your thoughts on AMD and intel mobile processors do you think they'll be working with Samsung HTC and other companies I think Intel especially is going to start doing this more and more they're already working with a few companies and as their chipsets prove themselves I think we'll start to see them in more and more funds AMD on the other hand has basically said yeah we might do this if somebody asks us as they seem to be focusing more on Windows 8 which might not be the best tactic given their current market performance shadaab asks hey Chris what are your thoughts about the upcoming sony xperia z1 honami with its massive rumored specs isn't going to beat phones like the note 3 and the LG g2 well you're right it certainly does look like a beast of a phone well a beat the g2 maybe we'll it beat the note 3 at least in terms of sales probably not Sony just doesn't have the buzz around that Samsung does right now now if we're talking performance and usability well we're just going to have to wait until we review it and that about wraps it up for this week folks as usual a written companion to this video can be found in android authority com now remember this show is powered by your questions so keep them coming you can find the link to ask those questions of your very own in the description down below make sure to stay tuned to android authority for more news reviews tips tricks QA giveaways and more I'm Chris Walken as always thank you for watching
