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

    Yes, still not android games, are they?

    We have had decent android phones for like 10 years, at least, yet the best you can on them is emulating other platforms.

      Honestly if I can play all of the new indie games on my phone I don’t really care whether or not they’re “android games.”

      By your logic the steam deck doesn’t have any games since most of them rely on proton to work.

        As I was saying to another user, yes the steam deck kinda has no games, although I’d argue that PC gaming includes wine/proton too since they aren’t emulators.

        Anyway, I too am happy emulating stuff on my phone, but a few years ago I thought we were going to get more than this and they left me waiting basically.
