QUOTE(Eoma @ Jan 21 2014, 09:49 AM) Asphalt 8 is free for today guys. Time to flex that 1520 muscle. Wow cool!! Darn I'm gonna run out of space on my L1520 QUOTE(s7ran9er @ Jan 21 2014, 11:29 AM) Waze is using OpenGL to render the maps while WP8's Waze is using Direct3D, I suspect this is the cause of battery drain. Because of MS's ego on Direct3D and zero support for OpenGL which is why the cause of sluggish performance and battery performance. So the current use of Waze is just for you to check traffic, not for navigating.  Eh.... if your logic is correct then all games should heat up the phone like mad since they all use Direct3D. But it doesn't since games like Temple Run 2, Subway Surfers, even Jetpack Joyride doesn't heat up the phone much.

Probably Waze should learn a thing or 2 from HERE department.

No such thing as perfectly optimised Direct3D lah. All access goes through the same Direct3D API stack at the OS level. Not like games developers go write their own Direct3D driver hehe.

Of course you won't see it in a dark theme Is it that crucial to you . It doesn't affect the camera function. In fact I quite like the white line separating the soft buttons
