Ratings and reviews

The app uses smart default and has auto system dark them. Plus, lightweight! Props for those. Unfortunately, i cannot properyly read the text. The purple, dark violet text is bad for reading as the contrast is very poor between background and text color. If this was fixed i could actually read in the dark. Rest is awesome.

Short, sweet, and to the point. Satisfies my curiosity.

This app is very useful for me to decide the power of a mobile because mobile which can play 8K videos will be having very powerful hardware... Omx.qcom.video. decoder. avc is very reliable tool to check the max resolution supported on a mobile.. I Use VR box for 5k and 8k videos and this app save lot of time. Xioami mobiles k20 pro beat Apple also in area of high resolution videos which can be played on VR box.
