Ive been looking at ayn devices, the Thor is sick. Ive been pestering my wife about one lol, maybe it’ll show up on My birthday. I don’t have an arm device yet either so i need one for sure
I was amazed at how well x64 emulation has gotten on arm. The chip in the Thor should be pretty decent, but definitely expect pain points and worse support than the steamdeck/Linux (on x64).
I haven’t had any game not load for me yet, but performance is inconsistent (especially in 3D games). Something that seems lightweight will be sluggish and other things run surprisingly smoothly.
This site - https://www.emuready.com/ - helped me research to see if I could actually play the games in my backlog.
Edit: Also, most phone chips have shared RAM (if I recall correctly), so higher ram in the device means higher gpu VRAM. So going cheap on ram could impact what games are playable.
