Strengths

• Higher pixel density → Richer sprites, smaller jaggies, better text readability.
• Widescreen aspect ratio (16:9) → More horizontal FOV in racing games, platformers, or shooters.
• Better color depth (typically 16–24-bit) → More vibrant gradients.
• Performance – These phones had ARM 11 or ARM 9 CPUs (up to 369 MHz) + dedicated 2D/3D accelerators (e.g., Nokia’s hardware rasterizer). Exclusive games could use more polygons or smoother animations.
