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

    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.
