Do you remember SimCity Deluxe for mobile devices? Many might believe I'm talking about SimCity 4 Deluxe edition but that is not the case. A long long time ago there was a mobile adaptation of the famous game I possessed on my iPad and played all the time. Proof: I wonder if fans of the game still exist.

Hello, I've seen benchmarks shows that the latest iPad Pro can provide laptop-like performance thru Apple A10X, although with some controversies. Currently, it's the fastest Arm chip commercially available for tablet. Also, with the growth of Apple chips and production of the powerful Snapdragon 850, powerful yet still efficient processors going to lots of devices. The question is can Arm processors run heavy apps like full-fledged Photoshop, Premiere Pro and Blender, and heavy games like Cities: Skylines (heavy because it doesn't fully support integrated graphics) and triple-A titles? Nice to see if people carrying their tablet to model things in 3D and rendering it either while in travel or at home (depending on the complexity), or recording C:S gameplay on their phone, editing it using the full-fledged Premiere Pro and share it on YouTube. Thanks.

Long life battery laptop/tablet for playing Cities on the go
rigurat posted a topic in Cities: Skylines Technical Help Q&A
I read this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/SuggestALaptop/comments/3ck2ni/lowest_cost_laptop_to_run_cities_skylines/ and similar topics on this site and got ideas from it. Now I ask this for 2016. What whould be a good tablet or laptop for playing Cities Skylines on the go? Priority is battery life, needs to go several hours on a single charge without access to a power source. If you can add a battery pack to it, good! Here's the specs I prioritize: Battery: Must be long, needs to go several hours on a single charge Screen size: No preference Resolution: As high as possible, would be nice if higher than 1080p CPU/GPU/RAM: Good enough to run Cities Skylines smoothly, even at low settings Weight: As light as possible for traveling on plane. Price: We'll worry about that later. I think playing Cities Skylines is a great way to pass the time on those long 12 hour plane rides. I'm currently thinking of the Surface Pro 4 or Surface Book. Any suggestions?
