Thank you, I looked up all the ones I didn't know and, as I said in my first comment, we are still stuck with 10 years old gaming.
Not saying that the games suck (although some look like crap honestly), my point is that after a decade of hardware and software "updates" the bottleneck is still there and basically unchanged.
And that is unacceptable considering the price tag of some devices.
What bottleneck are you talking about?
I agree for pixel phones. For everyone else you have options. you can game at medium to high settings on upper midrange dimensity 8300/8400 phones, snapdragon 7+ gen 2/3, 8gen 2, 8s gen 3, and other phones.
What's the last modern game you have played on your phone?
I have listed all the games that I have played and still keep installed on my phone. Others like Real Racing 3 require powerful hardware which my phone does not have unfortunately.
What exactly are you expecting here?
The same I've repeated since the beginning, just something that doesn't look like it's from the 2015 Play Store.
Even that Real Racing is from 2013 bro... literally released that year.
