Thank you for your intervention; I was afraid that the topic didn't interest anyone..... well, come to think of it, maybe it doesn't interest you either and you only replied out of kindness and compassion, I guess.
Regarding what you call a wall of colorful pictures, I thought they would awaken the interest and wonder of some users more that way, but I had not in the least thought that you would participate and be accidentally blinded by their brilliance... 😅 and for that I apologize.

Anyway, I confirm to you that that slightly older model is more efficient in handling Java games than those two newer ones: but my assumption is that the features of these claimed by the manufacturer are not actually so (especially the available RAM). Above all, I noticed that these are made in China, while the nokia 206 is made in India: perhaps indicative of higher quality components of this one? Who knows and who cares.... But in the meantime I enjoy it, and I never fail to play a game of Diamond Twister, Block Breaker Deluxe or Puzzle Fighter II before I fall asleep. 😉

Think again. The topic is interesting for me… and see: I've learned something now.
Just because I'm not actively using phones for anything that doesn't mean I ignore such topics. I even learned the basics in rooting and flashing Android phones (and now that I've had a look at them I like them even less than before).

Could as well be that the games require one specific version of the JVM and nothing else. Who knows?

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.
