Doom 3 BFG edition actually runs smoother at 1080p on Tegra X1 than it does at 720p on PS3/360.

Not saying it didn't happen. But in general 1080p hardly has a point on a phone with the small screen, less battery life, lack of storage for bigger games, etc.

Games with late ports can also be more easily optimized.

I mean some phones can do 4k but there is little point in that.

Hey, you're talking to a guy who doesn't consider 720p vs 1080p a big deal even on a television screen. ;)

All I'm saying is, technically speaking, claims from a few years back that phones would soon overpower PS3/360 have come true, even if most games don't leverage this capacity.
