ARMv6 Min Spec/ Popularity

Unity Engine

Trying to work out which ARMv6 phone to buy to optimise Rocket Bunnies on, I’m torn between getting the absolute min spec (whatever that is) and getting the most popular phone (whatever that is). Also the device would have to be OS 2.1+ and ideally updated OTA.

The admob survey was really useful for working out which were the most popular devices, although they really need an updated survey. Now they are owned by google this might not be as forthcoming

This is a fairly comprehensive spreadsheet of devices, picking out the ARMv6 with GPU devices still requires further searches.

What devices did Unity test on?

What are your recommendations?

Keep in mind that Unitys min spec isn’t ARMV6 but ARMV6 with VFP or ARMV7

The 2009 page has nearly no device thats ARMV6 + VFP and as such they can’t run unity at all.

The Samsung Moment packs a Samsung S3C6410 CPU (ARM11+VFP+GPU) and Android 2.1 (as of May 2010). It’s honestly the only device I can think of that fits the bill.
