Patrick’s comment about Android not needing a high powered CPU has to be one of the most stupid or uninformed comments I’ve ever heard.
Well hold on. I think what Patrick was referring to was that you can run Android on cheaper devices. Samsung has a whole suite of these and there’s plenty of examples in China. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t saying Android itself is low-powered. I think it was meant as a comment on Android’s adaptability. Or at least that’s how I took it.
The MANOS game will not work on iOS 11. Could be a deal-breaker. 😉
