It might be a bizarre comparison but can the iPhone 6 Plus keep up with the Xbox 360?

iPhone gaming sure looks a lot nicer these days. Some of these iPhone games look pretty nice, and play very well with the guy's controller setup for his iPhone.

I'm impressed about its performance, but the fact that the iPhone 6 costs more than the Xbox One alarms me... I can't afford an iPhone 6 at this point in time...

To be fair, the iPhone 6 can make calls, text, and do other smartphone tasks on a small size device. I read reviews that the iPhone 6 Plus has a great camera for taking pictures, and recording HD video. The 5.5 inch touchscreen on the iPhone 6 Plus has a 1920× 1080 resolution, and great color quality. The fingerprint Touch ID reader also probably cost a lot of money.
 
I would imagine the phone would get pretty hot to the point it couldn't be held if it kept matching the Xbox 360 for very long.

The iPhone's case is made of aluminum metal which is the same kind of metal installed on computer heatsink fans, so maybe the metal helps cool the iPhone with the surrounding air which is cooler like how there are some metal case computers which are fanless because they are cooled by the metal with the surrounding air outside it.

I think my note 4 is made of the same material and it gets hot.

I think you are probably feeling the battery getting drained/discharged when you use it because the battery is the biggest part on the back of most phone.

that or the CPU/RAM from running a lot of process.

I think most RAM does not really get hot since RAM does not need any cooling since your room's cooler air already cool it pretty well.

Although, the CPU maybe running hot, but a lot of newer CPUs for smartphones and tablets automatically slows itself down to prevent itself from getting too hot.

It could be the screen which is making your smartphone hot because the screen on smartphones use the most power which makes the battery run hotter because its power is draining faster.

I think the iPhone, and Google Android smartphones are pretty similar when it comes to features, Apps, and services. Most Apps, features and services which are on iPhone is also on Andriod.

iPhone usually has less Bloatware than most Google Android smartphones which gets loaded with a lot of Bloatware from the maker of the phone like HTC Sense, Samsung TouchWiz, and Sony's Android skin. Some Cell phone service companies like T-mobile, Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint also load a lot of Bloatware onto their Android smartphones, but they are not allowed to load bloatware onto the iPhone.

This is a good investigation consumer watchdog video from the BBC about Samsung Bloatware, and how it makes their phones has less space, and run slower.

Unfortunately Watchdog did not state where we could buy the mythical 32GB model in Europe so we are stuck with around 9Gb on a 16Gb Samsung Galaxy S4

Oppo/One Plus, Motorola, Xiaomi, Official Google Nexus, and Cyanogenmod smartphones don't have as much bloatware, or no bloatware.

I think Windows Phone, and Blackberry does not has any bloatware, but it is a too bad that there are not as many apps, or games for Windows phone compared to iOS, and Android.
