4.4 android
single core 1.12ghz processor
2gig hard drive (500mb free)

Seems the gps goes out a lot :(, like it doesn't register that it's walking :/

it doesn't register you walking because the servers are slow, the character size on screen gives horrible distance perspective, and because 6mph is what this company considers "walking".

Your phone needs to have 2 GB of ram or more for a better experience.

I tried the game on my Samsung Galaxy S4 and found it gets hot and laggy when there are a ton of active lures on pokestops. If you try to keep 1-2 active lures on your screen, your phone might be fine. Once it starts to get hot or performance feels choppy, you gotta turn it off to cool down. Keep your phone out of the sun if you're playing legitimately. I GPS spoof with my Note 4 and can play for an hour or more without any performance hit before my phone starts to get hot.

I use an s4 and it runs perfectly fine. gets warm, but nothing too bad. I play for hours at a time, even in the sun/heat.

Not sure if trolling... But I have yet to have any sort of over heating issues playing this game.. Or at all for that matter
