Don't sweat that. There are several tests and benchmarks showing Prime and Tegra3 CPU absolutely smokes the new ipad CPU(it uses the same old dual core 1ghz CPU as in ipad2) CPU tasks are more important than gpu. We still have a good gpu and still have the most powerful CPU on any tablet now. CPU tasks are more important to everyday use and multitasking and such. Gpu is more for gaming. Ipad likes to focus on gaming. Which is cool. But more people are grown up and don't just play games everyday with their device. SOME LIKE TO ACTUALLY BE PRODUCTIVE WITH IT. So ill take the #1 tablet Superior CPU and second best GPu (tegra3) vs. A piss poor dual core 1Ghz CPU and a superior GPU. Plus the margins of prime CPU beating Ipad CPU is greater than the difference found in gpu performance. Even other devices smoke the Ipad CPU. THERES plenty of articles talking about how new Ipad CPU not being upgraded is hurting them bad in apps such as new iphoto and others. Apple cut corner by not upgrading. Even the old ipad2 has been shown to perform better than new Ipad, as far as CPU tasks go. They both have the exact same CPU but ipad2 still performance better. Only gpu was upgraded in new Ipad. That gpu boost was needed for the display. As the display can't work without the increase in gpu power. So most of that power is wasted on powering the display. New Ipad has nothing out currently, made from scratch, that takes full power of that gpu. Most games will have lower resolution then upscaled. Read Anandtech findings on it as he breaks it down. Ipad has a great display but its all gimmick anyways. Which is why not that many ipad2 users felt the need to upgrade. New Ipad isn't a real upgrade at all. More like an ipad2s. Lol

Plus don't let yourself get sucked into the new Ipad better than prime b.s. it can't be that much better if those owners still troll prime forum constantly ;) they should be busy play Angry birds at resolutions higher than HD t.v. lmfao

Specs and Graphic is not gameplay.

When people look at gaming, they look at the games, not at the specs of the GPU.

How else is console gaming selling more then PC gaming?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skygunner27:
Exactly my point with iOS and android. Regardless of the A5X sporting better GPU specs, the game apps and apps that take advantage of the A5X dwarfs anything seen from the Tegra 3 SoC.

I didn't make this video but you can get an idea of iOS gaming on the new iPad. Keep in mind that these games look much better on the iPad's 2048 x 1536 retina display.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUG0oPPTm2M&feature=youtube_gdata_player

On paper the Tegra 3 CPU is faster than than the A5X, but in the real world iOS is faster with A5X because iOS is optimized for it.

I have a ATP and a new iPad. I'm not like demandarin being stuck to one device and basing all of my reason on buyers remorse and/or buyers justification.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Stupid phone wigged out, disregard.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I saw that video you quoted. Nothing really impressive, IMO. Real racing 2 HD looks just as good on android. Its not even really optimized for A5x. They just increased the visuals slightly. SKY Gamblers is overrated.. ill take X-Plane on my ipad1 and Android over that anyday. Mass effect 3, not A5x optimized. Looks the same on my ipad1. Plus Android version is coming and will be tegra3 optimized. Which it will look better and have more effects, etc... I stopped watching video after that. Don't need to see any infinity blade 2 videos as I have it on my ipad1 and looks just as good as new Ipad version aside from higher Res. Screens. Plus the games on newer Ipad run at slower framrates than ipad1 or 2 counterparts.

So there really is hardly any real games optimized for A5x. Its running the exact same stuff as I can run on my ipad1. Plus games that are crossplatform tend to have better android versions.

But f?!#& all this new Ipad b.s. no one cares for it. As polls have shown basically no one is selling Prime to get a new Ipad. They can keep the closed and limited ecosystem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
This should put all the Ipad graphics better than prime/tegra3 graphics to rest.

ANANDTECH A5X VS. TEGRA3 "REAL WORLD" RESULTS: he even states benchmarks are basically b.s. he compares all games available.on both devices crossplatform and which one is the better version. Well it seems like Tegra3 won this battle according to home. Tegra3 shadowgun, GTA3, etc..look better on Prime and Tegra3.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5688/apple-ipad-2012-review/16

Ill leave it at that. We don't need anymore Ipad b.s. in here..lol.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skygunner27:
That review proves my point. The games reviewed were against the non retina versions. You must be high on rocks, if you think the retina version of Real Racing 2 HD looks like the android version...lol. Sky Gamblers:AS is awesome online and offline. I have over 15 games that have been updated to retina resolution. Everyone of them mops the floor with tegra 3. You do know that Riptipe GP received a retina update with extras. Its only a matter of time before Shadowgun gets a similar update. There's no reason to argue with you. Next you'll try to tell me that my ATP is more powerfull than my ALX and M18x...lol.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dc iz 2 legit:
apple zombie!! Why bother arguing with this guy? His mind is full of apple bs just like all the other sheep's in the us. Just wait till Nvidia ports their Kepler gpu along side tegra it will be laughable cause I bet apple will still be behind in the phone/tablet world and we will still have sheep's like this believing anything apple says. All apple has to say is we have the best product and sheep's will follow.

yeah, Tegra4 will be a beast. more than likely have Kepler based gpu. you should hear my sinister laugh. that's why I'm not worried at all. prime will hold me down until tegra4 is released.. then their excuses change from Ipad gpu is better to "what do you need all that power for" lmfao.

isheep are so silly ;)

You are an idiot. The only apple devices I own is a new maxed out iPad and 4S. My favorite devices are my maxed out Alienware M18x and maxed out Alienware ALX. Take a break from demandarin's nuts.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dc iz 2 legit:
Just read all his post? He is in the wrong forum? He is either a troll or he such in denial of buying an iPad 3 that he is trying to find a good enough reason to return it and get a real device. Like I really don't get why people think its so great?? I get it its simple its easy it stays the same! I can understand if my grand parents want one. But u have to be a total moron to not no how to use an Android device. Their is just so much more u can do on Android its to much to write down. I love that when I'm looking for a place eat

On the net I tap the address Google maps opens and navigates me. I love that I have a file manager. I love that I can use Google talk anywhere I go and not rely on wifi. I got to admit I used to own a 3gs and I was a hard core apple fan but a friend converted me and never looked back so much more potential on Android. And your right when tegra4 comes out you'll here that excuse....why do u need all that power....uhhh so I can play PC games on my android so I can watch 1080p videos so I can do ten things at once and not worry about bogging down my Android.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skygunner27:
I'm not in denial. I own both devices. Both have their strenghts and weaknesses. You are in denial if you think for GPU tasks/games that android and Tegra 3 are better than iOS/A5X. I can afford to own multiple platforms. Stop being so bias.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skygunner27:
It doesn't matter if this is a transformer thread. Stop posting false sensationalist claims.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
people lucky I didn't see this earlier...lol. This is Anandtech Final Conclusion on Gaming on new Ipad vs. Prime:

" Gaming Conclusion

In situations where a game is available in both the iOS app store as well as NVIDIA's Tegra Zone, NVIDIA generally delivers a comparable gaming experience to what you get on the iPad. In some cases you even get improved visual quality as well. The iPad's GPU performance advantage just isn't evident in those cases—likely because the bulk of iOS devices out there still use far weaker GPUs. That's effectively a software answer to a hardware challenge, but it's true"

Also new Ipad gpu beats tegra3 in a few particular graphics area benchmarks. Well here is Anandtech proof of Tegra3 CPU more advanced and powerful than A5X CPU across the board.

" Almost entirely across the board NVIDIA delivers better CPU performance, either as a result of having more cores, having higher clocked cores or due to an inherent low-level Android advantage. Prioritizing GPU performance over a CPU upgrade is nothing new for Apple, and in the case of the A5X Apple could really only have one or the other—the new iPad gets hot enough and draws enough power as it is; Apple didn't need an even more power hungry set of CPU cores to make matters worse"
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skygunner27:
I could also post the same info in favor of the A5X, but I'm tired after work and playing Dodonpachi Resurrection HD on my new ipad. What an awesome game for iOS even w/o a retina update.

If I want gaming, I'd get a dedicated gaming device instead of a tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
Haha, I'm enjoying myself with all Demandarin claims which ALWAYS will defend the Prime. Just because this a Prime subforum it shouldn't be a iPad false-bash forum.

Where are all the cool Infinity Blade 2/Real Racing 2/Sky Gamblers Air Supremacy games for Android? And this really is a issue for me when I had the Prime, yes it had this flashy quad core CPU (with bad GPU, but whatever) and the only nice game was Shadowgun, Riptide didn't really impress me too much.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skygunner27:
In my home for gaming we own a maxed out Alienware M18x, a maxed out Alienware ALX, 2 new 4G 64GB iPad's, a Grey 64GB Transformer Prime, 2 PS3's, 2 Xbox 360's, 2 Wii's, a MBP, a 3DS, a PSP, a A100 and a 3G PS Vita. I also own a Panasonic 3DO FZ-1, Neo Geo Pocket, Sega CDX, Sega Saturn, SNES, NES and 2 Dreamcast. I already own quite a few dedicated gaming devices.

I can tell by your post that you are NOT familar with iOS gaming. Yes it really is that good;)

Exactly!! Well said. Riptide received a Retina update that puts it above the Tegra 3 version. It looks way better on the new iPad and runs smoother. They even added in the annoying blurring effects from the Tegra 3 version. Thankfully they chose to leave of that dumb screen splash effect. Real Racing is out for Android phones but looks like hot garbage compared to the iOS Retina version.

We could be here all day listing great games that are not on the Android platform, but I don't feel that should be necessary....not yet:p

If I need to I will post links and video links.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nmeuvdast8:
if you are looking for bluetooth headset, try Sony Ericsson MW600. it can accommodate up to 3 bluetooth devices and it has a built in FM tuner.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HaiGuise:
Probably not the answer you're looking for but I needed a speaker for my phone and elected for wireless via bluetooth for ease of connectivity and roaming around my apartment.

I ended up buying the Logitech Wireless Boombox. I love the thing. It was an absolute lifesaver at a party we threw at our house. It's not as powerful as a traditional boombox but it will do the job for a small patio. My favorite feature is that it's rechargeable and can go up to 6 hours without being plugged in. I will add though that there is an increase in volume when plugged in.

My wife wanted one for her (since I would always take mine on business trips), but wanted something more compact. We tried our luck with a Zimri bluetooth speaker from Fry's for $30. Jeez.. right out the box, I was impressed with the thing. Honestly, for $30 I was expecting build quality to be poor, but it was quite the opposite. The thing has a little weight to it for a tiny speaker. The sound? For a tiny little thing it actually sounds decent, though it cannot compete with my Logitech of course. However, one of the best features of the Zimri is that it plays at top volume with little to no distortion. Add to it the fact that it too is rechargeable and wireless, you can hide the thing practically anywhere. I highly recommend it if you're not willing to fork out $199 on the Jawbone version (that thing sounds awesome too by the way).

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moyajaya:
Is it possible to replace the menu button with the ICS Task Manager/Multitasker? like in the galaxy Nexus? I think even the icon looks similar in a way to a list of apps. This would be useful especially since ICS deals with this perfectly by showing a menu button when it doesn't detect it as a hardware button.

What do you guys think about this idea?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
Why not just hold the home button to bring up recent apps..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pachi72:
Cuase holding the home button for 1 or 2 seconds its not better than just pressing the menu button.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VTEChump:
Agree. Home buttons degrade and break.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moyajaya:
Yep, and because given the choice, I'm sure most will opt to use it this way. the menu button is getting deprecated as a hardware button and being implemented more and more inside applications.

Hopefully some more ICS ROM devs will see this and review this suggestion. I would love to know what they have to say about it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bootlessjam:
This was the first thing I wanted to do after installing ICS. The capacative buttons are mapped in /system/usr/keylayout/melfas-touchkey.kl;

key 158 BACK WAKE
key 139 MENU WAKE

I'm just not sure what to replace 'MENU' with. 'TASK'?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bootlessjam:
Hate to double post but I thought I'd share what I've discovered.

I tried replacing 'MENU' with 'APP_SWITCH' in melfas-touchkey.kl and sec_touchkey.kl and got the menu button to act just like the recents button, however there was then no way to access the menu :p

I had a brief look at the android source code and it looks like the value that decides to show the action overflow button in the toolbar is set depending whether the on screen buttons are being used. Not at all sure about that though and I've seen the new HTC one phones have a hardware recents button replacing the menu so it can't be impossible.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moyajaya:
Thank you for trying this and letting us know about the results. I was thinking if all fails maybe the search option that appears when you click and hold the menu button could be replaced with the menu?

Clicking the Old menu button = New app switcher

Holding the old menu button = Menu

how about that? I think most apps include a search icon if/when they include search functionality.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bootlessjam:
Had a brainwave today and got it 90% there. I decompiled framework-res.apk and enabled the navigation bar AND resized it to 0. This means the action overflow button shows up in apps without the galaxy nexus-like software keys getting in the way. I then remapped the menu key and it is working like a charm :)

Of course then there is the little issue of bringing up the menu when using a pre honeycomb app. The simplest solution for me was to use the pen's button+swipe up gesture. This isn't ideal and doesn't even work for people using CM9 or stock ICS.

Here is the modified framework-res for the Team Rocket ROM v1.5:

dl.dropbox dot com/u/2340506/navbarhidden.zip

These forums don't trust me with links :(

Install with CWM recovery. Don't use it on any other ROM! I can't even guarantee it'll work on every team rocket rom. I'm too lazy to load every ICS ROM but if you post your framework-res.apk I can edit it for you.

After you can remap the hardware keys in /system/usr/keylayout/melfas-touchkey.kl and /system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl like I mentioned earlier with Root Explorer or ES File Explorer. I have it set up to mimic the HTC one phones and the galaxy nexus's layout, since I keep the key lights off.

Hopefully this is useful to people. A better way to access the menu on old apps should be easier to do once people start tinkering with the HTC one phones.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moyajaya:

Thank you for your efforts!

I would love to try those but I moved back to Gingerbread for the time being. ICS in the note is far from being a daily driver for me. A lots of bugs and battery drains compared to Gingerbread. Hopefully this will change quickly. I trust the dev community and i'm sure they'll beat samsung in having stable ICS releases...

I looked into doing the same thing as you did only because I love the tablet layout and holding the home button doesn't bring it up.

In order to get what you and a few others would want on select roms, the source for the framework would have to be adjusted as said in the thread, meaning each dev would have to implement this independently.

The second thing is alread mentioned in this thread, which is changing the key layout.

You can hope that the dev has no issues with inserting it into their build.

NOT changing the source but editing the key layout will only bring up the a Gingerbread styled task switcher. I've tried ;_;

I personally might I add, would just love the same hold the home button functionality while in tablet mode.
