@sunilshenoy867 IMO the Android version of TS4 will not be like the computer version due to the limited capabilities of the Android mobile device. The internal memory (storage) needs to be increased to run a game like Sims 4. If you can add memory card you can't use that memory to run the whole app from the memory chip. When you add a 16Gb memory chip to your 16Gb smart phone you don't get 32Gb of storage. What you get is a way to move part of some of your apps to the SD card. Many people run their Android device with little free memory. The next problem is not all Android devices are the same and once a device is so old there is no update path and the device becomes orphaned causing you to buy a newer device (isn't capitalism great). One thing I'm having a hard time understanding - as graphics get better why would anyone want to watch (play games) on the small screen (7 inch smart phone). Right now I play the sims games on a 42 inch 1080p screen. There is no way to get the movie Star Wars with surround sound to get theatrical equivalent in a smart phone. Mobile devices get stolen, lost, damaged, etc. I had a very hard time paying $600 for the Samsung Galaxy S5 I use. $600 is a good way to a good gaming system. Today I could get a new replacement for about $200 should I have to replace it. The depreciation of a smart phone is worse then automobiles. IMHO if Sims 4 is officially released for Android I feel it will be like a demo to get the game for the computer version. I could be wrong (and have been wrong) but I'm looking to get a 4K screen this coming year.
