I would suggest prioritizing on the most common android device out there. For phones I found the "Galaxy S3", "Galaxy S2" and "HTC Droid DNA" seem most common/wanted. Just considering future usability is why I said suggested "HTC Droid DNA".
Please make it for the samsung galaxy note 10.1 and make it work with the pen. when will you release it? I have been waiting a while to play this and I hate apple products so yeah bring it to andriod already. it will be the only game id pay for. I own all the baulders gate games for the pc. I want it on my tablet please hurry..........
look people with cheap c... devices just have to look it in the eye. GAMES WONT RUN WELL on old s.... Deal with it or get a better device. You wouldn't expect crysis to run on a pentium 4 with 2 gigs of ram and a geforce MX would you? Simple solution is higher end devices higher end games.
I'm surprised to see the Note 2 being considered. Not overly popular in the poll but if the Note 10.1 is tested, the Note 2 should be fine as they're pretty similar spec wise. Really looking forward to this!
I was thinking of getting the new HTC One (which I saw mentioned a couple times in the last couple pages). Apparently (?), it is better than the Sony Xperia S when it comes to hardware, which currently has 46 votes, so...
I am curious if this device would be good enough to play BG:EE (PC hardware is one thing, but I have a limited knowledge when it comes to phones or tablets). It's going to cost around ~£520, which is the reason I'm asking instead of just rushing out and buying it. The cost compared to what it will be used for won't really be offset if I can't at the very least play BG:EE. There are cheaper phones that will easily do what I need, sans BG.
(Note that I am not interested in a tablet)
The main question is this: do people think it would run BG:EE well enough?
@Troodon80 I think the only phone that has a chance of being playable is the Note 2. And Beamdog hasn't said if they will even support that (or any other device)...
I'd like to see support for the Nexus 10. Until the situation is better on the OS version fragmentation front, it's a good tablet to target because it's practically the baseline for future ones, specs-wise. Up-to-date stock Android, ARM A15 CPU, retina display, etc.
In the near future, these things will be expected by consumers from most major manufacturers (aside from AOSP stock OS). May as well make the game more adaptable toward future tablets if you guys don't plan to play an endless game of catch-up.

for tablets I found "nexus 7" as well as my personal favorite "galaxy tab 2" are the most circulated.

I do not know why the kindle fire was a best seller on this list, but not to be biased I will link this as well.
