The best gaming smartphones in 2020

-

Ranking with the best gaming smartphones, tested by NUpgrade in the Roda Liso program. See how many FPS each phone picks up in each game.

In 2020 we created a list of the best gaming smartphones based on all tests of the program Straight Wheel, where we analyze the main games of cells in the devices that manufacturers send us to test.

The difference between our list and other sites is precisely the complete test that we do with each smartphone. Here at NUpgrade, we tested a list of 10 gamesArena of Valor, ARK, Asphalt 9, Call of Duty Mobile, Free Fire, Injustice 2, PES 2020, PUBG Mobile, Standoff 2 and Shadowgun Legends. Besides, of course, check if Fortnite also runs.

What are the best gaming smartphones?

We bring in this list, separated by game, the best smartphones for games. This list is updated as we test new smartphones. Not everyone that we have tested will be here on the list, as there are some that have been tested for a long time and we were unable to redo with the most updated game apps, so in 2020 we start with this list below and will increase them as we test the new cell phones that appear in the year 2020.

How does scoring work?

The points are classified by the maximum graphic quality that the cell phone can achieve. This is the first digit of the dots:

  • 5 – maximum graphic quality
  • 4 – high graphic quality
  • 3 – average graphic quality
  • 2 – low graphic quality
  • 1 – minimal graphic quality

Immediately after having defined the graphic quality, the amount of FPS * multiplies the stability of the FPS.

Examples:

  • If a smartphone reaches maximum graphic quality and makes 60 FPS at 100%, it will be 5 (graphic quality) 60 * 100 = 6000, so the score is 56000.
  • If a smartphone reaches average graphics quality and makes 30 FPS at 95%, it will be 3 (graphics quality) 30 * 95 = 2850, so the score is 32850.

Keep following our ranking here, it will be updated throughout the year.
