NVM5282 · Aug 27, 2014

hey guys
so when i saw youtube videos about gaming in both . i found out that
i9500 : bad optimized for real racing 3 - fifa 14 and runs gta sa well
while i9505 is bad optimized for gta and runs real racing 3 - fifa 14 very well .. not very good frame in asphalt 8 while i9500 gives wonderful fps in asphalt 8 .

Fifa 14 is running very well in my i9500

All of the above are running well on my i9500. Add to that GTA: San Andrea's too.
Prism BB beta1 ROM

I haven't tried Fifa14, but the other games run beautifully on my I9500.

I9500:
-Has the best S4 camera with its Exmor RS camera senor (I9505 has inferior Exmor R only)
-Wolfson DAC
-More Powerful GPU
-HD720@120FPS slo-mo video capture.

I9505:
-Plenty custom ROMs
-4G LTE.

Why you don't consider buying the I9506 instead?!
It's better than both I9500 or I9505...

I got I9506 and I'm very satisfied with it... every game runs smooth....

I don't think it's device dependant. It's probably because you need to use this patch if you want games to run smooth.

Samsung should add something like gaming mode(for devices that use this extreme dvfs)for users that dont care about battery when playing games so we dont need to root our devices,this way they are forcing users to root/modify/flash their devices :/

I've GT-i9505 and I'm playing on it all games you said, Fifa 14,Asphalt 8, Iron man, Modern Compat 5,Modern Compat 4. Assassin Creed pirates. Asphalt 7 and finally The Room 1,2

My rating: Perfect in everything and there's no lag. and i think it's better than Gt-i9500 cause Gt-i9505 has 1.9 Ghz processor but Gt-i9500 has only 1.6 Ghz

gpu is open gl es 2.0 only :/ means the upcoming generation of games won't be running flawlessly on this gpu

about this fix it maybe what i'm looking for . but mobile isn't all about gaming for me , i care for camera and speakers sound too . which version of s4 is better in these terms? as for 4g it's not available in egypt ( and i guess it will never be ) so it's not big deal for me

NVM5282 · Aug 29, 2014

guys should i really care for the point that i9500 not having open gl es 3.0 while i9505 does? would it really matters with me? i will play games yes but i aint a gamer . not all the day i will play games .not even everyday , i want a version that can max out fifa 14 , gta sa , asphalt 8 , real racing 3 and to be good for daily using , camera and speakers ... so which one should i get? i9500 or 9505 ( no 9506 cuz it isnt available in my country) ?

OK, I said that because my phone wasn't available either on my country, and I got it on a physical store and cheaper than I9505...

I Know I9505 and i9506, but I never got I9500... so I can't help between those 2 models... choose wisely

good luck

but I9506 is soooo good
