    Makes me wonder what age of PC modern phones compare to. Shame that it’s often a pain to get Linux on them

      I’d say about now, maybe just a few years behind. Phones come with 16gb of ram l, which is the most common config on steam. There are native ports on iOS. You can play resident evil 8 natively on an iPhone, you can emulate Cyberpunk 2077 on a high end Android.

      I’d venture to say that any modern game could be ported to arm with very little compromise, and as arm laptops become more common this gap will be smaller and smaller. The biggest hit for running windows games on Android is having to translate x86 calls to arm calls, an arm windows binary would only have to run through proton which in some cases runs games better than windows itself.
