I do not own a smartphone. I have an ol Blackberry, but I am quite satisfied with that for phoning and testing. I have an inexpensive tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 - 7.0) that has done what I needed it to do...until now. I hope to get together with a couple of friends on launch day and start up my Pocket Camp. To make sure I could do that, I will admit I "previewed" the Australian version. It was a good thing that I did. There is a lot of lag on my tablet and the motion is jerly and a little hard to control. I am sure this is all due to the tablet not the game itself.
The other issue is that sometimes when there is small print on the screen, I cannot read a word of it. I need something with greater clarity. (Possibly an "upgrade" to my glasses is overdue, too, LOL)
What do you think would be the minimum device and cost I can get away with and have the game play smoothly via wi-fi only? I have had so many emergency expenses this year that Ieven a relatively cheaper device is a stretch, but it is the one indulgence I cannot do without.
I thought about using an old laptop with an android simulator but cannot get around the lack of a touchscreen.
So I need to figure out the best improvement in functioning for the lowest additional cost. If it is a smartphone, I will not have data. It will all be over the wifi.
