TL;DR

  • Google has started rolling out a new GPU driver for the Pixel 10 series with Android 16 QPR3 Beta 1.
  • The update aligns with Imagination’s August driver release and brings Android 16 and Vulkan 1.4 support.
  • While real-world performance gains remain unconfirmed, the update should reach stable builds in a future Pixel Drop

    When I’ll get games comparable to like FFX or Shadow of the Colossus (the first two that come to mind) I’ll finally be satisfied with android gaming.

    Again, indie games exist and can easily be run on most phones through Winlator/GameNative. The Nintendo switch is basically an 8 year old midrange phone processor and that still got games, plenty of steam titles will run fine on even a low/midrange android phone.

    Until then all the p2w shit and other crap, or even 5yo PC games at low graphic settings on flagship phones, won’t cut it.

    So you want games comparable to what came out in 2001 and 2005, but a 5 year old AAA is too old for you? What???

    Luckily my current phone will probably be my last android device too.

    If you’re saying this because you’re switching to iPhone, I wouldn’t get my hopes up on the situation improving. It’s equally as bad on iOS. If you’re saying that because you’re getting a Linux phone or a non-smartphone, fair enough but those don’t have any games, let alone emulated ones.
