@Iuri Grangeiro for an android device if I am paying around 800+ for that chipset and controller I would sooner add another 400 and get a decent pc handheld that will be more versatile and play pc games. Android is good for emulation but beyond ps2 and a bit of switch it's not getting any higher at the moment outside of streaming. So I would need to in the market for a new phone then I would get it.
@@iurigrang The advantages an Android handheld has over a phone are thermal performance, battery life, ergonomics, and a lack of distractions. Building something with the intention of making it a gaming device from the beginning means you don't have to make many of the compromises that are needed for a general-purpose phone.

At this point I'm not interested in getting another android device at this price point, but I highly recommend it to anyone considering it.
Absolutely love mine, it's come a long way since the time it dropped. And for the price point, you can get one for around $300 now, which for being an almost 3-year-old device is still going to outperform phones for at least another year or two. And hopefully this outlasts my 3-year cycle! 🙏📲🎮🕹️💜💯
One word can describe that processor and that is monster. What a freaking monster that thing is, I just imagine that in about 5 years maybe even less we'll be able to play things like cyberpunk and Crysis on a phone.

I remember when an sd 855 phone still expensive, couple month ago, i got mine under $100, maybe ill get sd 8 gen 2 sometimes in the future, patience is the key 😂
If it takes you that long to even "wait patiently" for a freaking sub $100 phone, then I suggest you to find a way to increase your income instead of cheapening out your life like that. There is a difference between people who save money and people who hurt themselves to save money
It's called frugality and low time preference. It's infact a very healthy habit, and an antidote to the consoomerist era we find ourselves with. I'm buying this very phone for $300, just by pretending it never existed for a year. @crazycats08
The incredible part is all of the older models had this thing and I never knew about it. Maxed clocks (when you have good enough cooling) are awesome for emulation. This and Odin/Odin Lite are the only devices that I've seen with true locked max clocks.
You should test more switch games with skyline with this phone. That smash ultimate test was the most surprising, as even that "other" switch emulator doesn't even run that well with that game.
@@deiaee I am going to punch tim cook for giving phone companies the idea to not include them. and then also tell him he is doing a good job. before punching him again.
Bro, I have the RM6 Pro and it's literally the best phone I've ever had. 165 Hertz display is no joke, I usually keep it on 120 Hz. But the performance is astounding, I paid for the extra 16 GB RAM version, and I'm so glad I did. Most phones require at least 12 GB of RAM to be comfortable, as 8 GB isn't enough. Android system takes a surprisingly 6 GB to run, so anything under that is just dog poo. But 16 GB?? That's more than both my windows and Mac machine. And there's absolutely nothing I can throw that it won't run. It's even a couple generations behind, but rocking a Snapdragon 8 gen 1 was the best idea I could have waited for. Was going to get the 5S, but thank God I waited. Got it when it dropped around my birthday, so it was a nice gift to myself. I can run Wii, GameCube, PlayStation 2, damn near anything. Would be surprised if it couldn't run PS3 or X360, if the emulators ever surface. But the RM8 Pro??? Man I'm so jealous of that UDC technology. It looks so clean. And the new boxy look honestly reminds me of my Sony Xperia XA2 ultra, biggest phone I ever had. Not quite as tall as the RM6 Pro, creating a wider more cinematic experience, but it was definitely the biggest in terms of overall size. This thing might finally top that. I would love if they had some kind of trade-in program, upgrade my RM6 Pro to an RM8 Pro. 2 years later, and it's the best care I've ever taken of a device lol only one time you gouge and tiny scratch this thing has come after all of the falls and damage it is had to it. Still looks damn near new! So a very solid and sturdy phone. I should have broken it at least five times over, but I will tout this phone for the rest of my life. Thank you Taki, for showing off this amazing device. More people need to know about this company and their phones, they are perform anything on the market. 🙏📲🎮🕹️💜💯 Edit: by the way, that Diablo mode is absolutely crazy. I can push 3Ghz on this device under Diablo mode. That is absolutely insane! 🙏🎮🕹️📲💜💯
Man imagine playing ffxii in 2013 using this handheld with bluetooth joystick on the bed damn, i played ffxii on pc and its amazing one of the best jprg games all of times, snapdragon 8 gen 2 definetly my favorite tech from early 2023 that's crazy powerfull the diablo mode are amazing for emulation
Awesome video Taki! Appreciate you investigating the diablo setting. I'd like to see more in-depth videos on this and other manufacturer's phones desktop modes. I've read that Samsung's Dex mode takes a performance hit when running emulators, and I'd for example like to know if this is the case with nubia's, Motorola's, etc. desktop implementations as well.
Desktop mode on this only has performance issues with Skyline, but that's only when you push the FPS over 60. I didn't see any other negative impact during my testing and capture.
What is even the point of such powerful device without an SD card slot! PS2 and Wii games are huge and Skyline emulator is improving fast, internal storage is not enough.
Most Android devices can read external memory via otg adapter, so you can add say a 2tb flash card or hdd, maybe even an SSD. But yeah it's quite an ugly workaround compared to just having a built-in external memory card slot
I'm not buying because is doesn't, I'll wait for the Sony Xperia V gaming edition. I have a steam deck so the need for this is near 0. Huge miss, how stupid can they be?
Wow this thing is pretty awesome! Though wont be upgrading for a few years since i got the s21Ultra just last year. Maybe by then the red magic 10 will be out xD
It is very reliable! Been using it for about a year, already and no bug on my side, best experience for the price. If they didn't change it, it is just not water resistant
@OverClockeD_GR This is an important thing to mention. I checked the last 4 models (8+g1,8g1,888+/888) and they seem to have done the last round of security patches in Q4. The strange thing is that not all of my phones got the OTA update that is listed. They put the firmware files on their website for offline updating. Just want to say that software support is a valid concern.
@@reactking7093 No lol the 8 gen 2 is like 40% faster at any given power than the 8+gen 1. If the G3X is based on Samsung and not TSMC fabrication the increase is looking more like 70%. So either the Razor Edge is going to have way worse battery life or way worse performance in any given situation.
@@reactking7093 performance per watt=/=peak performance. And in terms of ppw, the 8 gen 1 was a step back from the 888, which was a step back from the 865
There are many, MANY things I don’t understand in this world, but one of the most mind bending is how these tiny little devices can basically outperform my laptop (which is an Alienware m15, I think it was around $2000) and do it costing less! The boards, and chips are significantly smaller, and how do these things stay quiet, and cool enough when I can’t even hear the music in games over the fan noise?!?! We truly are living in a simulation or a dream, because nothing adds up!
@@sv6k0a39 I’ve heard of it, and that it somehow magically can run off very little power, but if it can do this while, from a dummies perspective, pretty much keeping up the big boys, why is it not the industry standard with all companies copying it just enough to make it their own? You don’t have to waste your time trying to explain it to me, because even if you could break everything down to something a 3 year old could understand, I’d be just as confused as I am now, while drooling in a corner. I’m still convinced that whenever you delete anything from your hard drive, a little door opens on the back of your computer, and spits out dust particles… I just can’t ever catch it in time😬
Would be almost perfect if it had front facing speakers whilst still having that screen to body ratio bezeless design and an SD card slot with an IR blaster with unlocked FM radio.
using a high quality wireless headphone is 10x better! as for ir blaster... only redmi K series stil offer this feature and for the fm radio? just buy a bluetooth fm accessory lol
@@telostia no, the accessory adds bulk. The chips have the capability for the radio but are purposely locked down. Also they can still have front firing speakers by hiding them under the glass like Sony does with their TV panels and as we see with the front cameras and fingerprint unlock.
No SD card again.... On a gaming phone that will be used for emulation... I really wish someone would shake up the industry again and put a micro sd card slot on flagships. So tired of companies following Apple's bullshit.
@@GameTechTalk yes I agree. That's why I went with the gamesir x2 the x3 has the usc c on the right side 🤦 I've probably used it a few times since purchasing it
@@GameTechTalk i went with the x2 bluetooth so i didnt have to worry about that and i can use it with my iphone as well. it also lets me use a cooler with my z fold 3
So I just found out that this phone I bought also has Ray Tracing, a Waifu pre installed AND can play PS2 games better than my laptop, so next time I'm away from home for a long period of time I have something to do. Awesome!
13:44 you just have to click the "Gravity X" plugin at the left side of the gamespace. It's basically the same and you don't have to unplug-plug the gamepad
I have a question, do you use that phone as your everyday phone or just as gaming handheld and if you use it as gaming handheld, why not buy a steamdeck?
I'm impressed, especially from the Switch performance, but I have a Samsung GS21+ so I'll wait until the SD8 Gen3 to upgrade and buy the Redmagic 9 Pro.
How does this phone compare to say the S22 (or 23) Ultra. Do you really need the fan and the cooling and stuff. What if you just want to run PS1, PS2, and maybe GC games? I’m in the market for a new phone, and would like it to play Game Cube games, that would be cool, but honestly prefer the design of Samsung’s phone.
No microSD card is a deal breaker for me. I wanted to use it for emulation but those PS2 and GameCube games take a lot of space. So strange that such a nice gaming phone with all those features doesn't have micro SD...oh well I guess I will wait for Retroid 4+ or get Razer Edge.
@@johnboona4048 And it's not like this phone is rocking 16GB of ROM like the good old days and after everything has been updated you're stuck with like 6GB free. The basic 8 Pro starts at 256GB ROM. PS2 discs (DVDs) held 4GB. GameCube discs held 1.5GB, IIRC. Dreamcast GD-ROMs were 1GB. PSP UMDs held 900 MB on a normal disc and up to 1.8GB with the fancy dual layer ones. You can fit an insane amount of content on this phone without needing an SD card because our retro games weren't that big.
@Kanaba Nakamura music files, for me mine took 20 gigs alone, plus I downloaded video from Netflix, HBO max, and torrents at 4k. No SD slot, no sell from me.
I haven't been properly excited for an android chipset since the snapdragon s4 pro. These gen 2 chips look amazing and csnt wait to upgrade from my fold 3, which has the 888 and get quite hot, throttles hard snd has pretty poor battery life.
I was waiting for your video as it's the one with the most details :D based on what I saw, I think I'm going to buy this device, I have been really wanting to play Genshin but without worrying about throttling, so this is great
@@DanT-dh8lz switch games take up a huge amount of storage, so does Wii u games, having the option to swap out games according to console is a huge must
I would love to see this processor used in something like the Nintendo switch, just imagine the kind of games that would be possible if they were designed exclusively for this device
I think an RDNA 3 or 4 chip would be a lot faster. Though, we don't know yet if Nintendo is going to make another portable handheld console. They could go back to having 2 separate systems. Who knows.
Eventually they will, when its an average chip and about 5 years old, so since the 6800u came out a year ago and the SD 8 g2 a few month, we can estimate that a nintento handheld console with comparable power will come out in ...... 2032!
Hey Taki do u know when games like botw will be fixed on red magic 8+? I find it weird that it works on last gen but not this one lol. Any idea why? Anyway love ur vids
The Skyline devs don't have a phone with this processor yet, but there is some GPU driver bug for the Adreno 740 that they reported to Qualcomm. Assuming that gets fixed then the game will be as playable as it is on 8G1.
Nintendo Switch games from Nintendo itself & close to them are so beautiful, fun gameplay and awesome sound ! That's why Switch as per end of 2022 already sold 123 million units. Can't wait for a Switch 2 😍
Used a master ball to catch a Pidgey, classic. Great video and a surprising phone. I do wonder if the fans will turn on in your pocket and vacuum some lent for you though. Did you see any issues with that?
ALIEN ISOLATION ON MOBILE. Please please do test it. You can actually access its game files. Many pc settings are turned off for performance reasons but you can enable all of them back! Could you test 1440p Ultra pc settings on this new processor? You would make my day :)
Using my Motorola Edge 30 Ultra in Ready For desktop mode, on an external monitor, able to use wireless (or wired, via a little hub) keyboard and mouse, or with a wireless handheld controller. No problem. Probably the gaming performance is not at the same level, but I am already happy with this, so I suggest a little comparison 😉
Actually, there isn't a big difference (with the games/software that we currently have) between your 8+ Gen 1 and this 8 Gen 2. The 8+ Gen 1 was/is a great chip.
@@farisomeragic8900 I only use it wired. Don't know how (and never tried to) use the desktop mode wirelessly. What's wireless are the peripherals such as the keyboard, mouse, controller, earbuds.
Yea. I must've misheard ETA Primes video yesterday. I was pretty much sold on the device. The price is pretty good and the performance is amazing. But with no SD card support, how the hell are we supposed to load up games!? That ruins everything for me and now makes this a hard pass. I'm disappointed.
@@SRC267 doesn't matter, file organization is so easier with a sd card, also being able to swap games on the fly. So many options missed. How could they think this was a good idea 💡?
im sorry if this is a dumb question, but since you said some games run better on the previous cpu generation, could the emulators get updates to improve their performance ?
Skyline is always getting updates every week or two. Next big thing coming is texman in 2 parts which will solve most of the texture issues in games and also Billy is working on a lot of performance optimization, so don't worry since by around the next 4-6 months most games will be playable in this processor including botw without texture issues
I hope bright memory, call of duty war zone mobile, rainbow 6 mobile, the division mobile and the other games that support ray tracing get ray tracing support and android. I really hope the pimax portal becomes successful and makes it available as a purchase with the 4k 144 hz mini led display, 5g support
@@duck6966 it appears to emulate GameCube better than the steam deck. I’ve seen it struggle with things it shouldn’t. Ps2 seems to run better on android as well
@@robmalcolm8042 And the Deck can PS3, XBOX 360 and more, also the steam deck is cheaped out on CPU, so the strength is on gpu to play PC games While costing not even half
@@duck6966 yeah the deck is a good investment especially for emulation. I’m thinking of getting that instead of a new android since I keep hearing different stories about androids running emulation other than gaming androids. How s23 ultra from what I’ve seen doesn’t emulate that well either I’m like ehh I guess the deck will solve most issues
13:15 my ROG 6 when connected to xbox controller, you can literally map every android game to the controller via armoury crate without needing of an app like Mantis Pro or third party software. but the key mapping only works for xbox controller, didnt worked for my GameSir X2 pro.
@Taki Try the PlayDate handheld next... it had a very compact design with a smol crank... yes a crank and the intro for the console is so damn good... there's also a SFK software to create your own games and content for the console... so try and get your hands on if you wanna try one... ❤️
Because it doesn't have expandable storage am I able to have some games on a hard drive and plug it into the dock I would use? Thanks for the videos! This and the GPD Win4 has me so excited for the next few years! I cannot wait to see what we get next! I'm thinking of getting the redmagic 8 pro as it's more portable and can play the games I want :) thanks for the video
I can't get the right joystick to work right, it jerks a little bit that's all. I tried to download the gamesir app, but it says to enable developer options, even though it is already unlocked. Do you know a way to fix this?
Hi, what's that audio adapter you're using with the Kishi v2? I have a v2 kishi and would definitely love to have a similar set up that would incorporate a 3.5mm headphone port
I'm interested in this phone but I couldn't find anything about the years of support for Android future version also security updates. Also NFC is supported for do payments?
May I ask what is the gear that you make the headphone jack out?(Maybe you already mentioned somewhere else). Also, what is the controller? I can tell it's not the kishi controller you mentioned in the video description. Thanks.
I've had a couple of Red Magic phones. They were both buggy. There's the obvious stuff like Engrish in the dialogs and menus but sometimes turning them on would have them hang on a black screen indefinitely (terrifying the first time it happened!) and I'd have to reboot them once or twice to get them to start up. As such, I wouldn't get another Red Magic regardless of specifications and would wait for someone more reputable to release a device with this chipset.
So what should we get now days, this thing is so portable, but the battery wouldn’t be running so long like those other handhelds at bigger games, you got red magic , ayn neo pro, steam deck and more. Thoughts ?
This would have the longest battery life. It does what I showed with 5W of total power. You'd be looking at 4-5 hours of battery life going full tilt. The problem is this doesn't have access to as many emulators as those other ones.
Great work as always :) Can you recommend a guide for Skyline? I have a Galaxy Tab S8 with SD 8G1 (non plus) and I can't get BOTW to start even though I've imported product and title keys and tried some custom GPU drivers. I used an nsp rom without game updates. I've tried combining the base game and update NSPs into one file but that simply crashes the emulator. Not sure what the deal is.
Do other games boot (Sonic Mania)? If so, it's probably the exact GPU driver you are using. That being said, BOTW won't probably be stable for several more months with Skyline.

At this point I'm not interested in getting another android device at this price point, but I highly recommend it to anyone considering it.
Absolutely love mine, it's come a long way since the time it dropped. And for the price point, you can get one for around $300 now, which for being an almost 3-year-old device is still going to outperform phones for at least another year or two. And hopefully this outlasts my 3-year cycle! 🙏📲🎮🕹️💜💯

If it takes you that long to even "wait patiently" for a freaking sub $100 phone, then I suggest you to find a way to increase your income instead of cheapening out your life like that. There is a difference between people who save money and people who hurt themselves to save money
It's called frugality and low time preference. It's infact a very healthy habit, and an antidote to the consoomerist era we find ourselves with. I'm buying this very phone for $300, just by pretending it never existed for a year. @crazycats08
Nobody reviewing this phone is reviewing the diablo setting.... INCREDIBLE so thanks. Great video
The incredible part is all of the older models had this thing and I never knew about it. Maxed clocks (when you have good enough cooling) are awesome for emulation. This and Odin/Odin Lite are the only devices that I've seen with true locked max clocks.
@@TakiUdon i dont think most people knew about it because ive never heard of it until your video. Great video mate

Do you want to play Farlight 84 with me
Bro, I have the RM6 Pro and it's literally the best phone I've ever had. 165 Hertz display is no joke, I usually keep it on 120 Hz. But the performance is astounding, I paid for the extra 16 GB RAM version, and I'm so glad I did. Most phones require at least 12 GB of RAM to be comfortable, as 8 GB isn't enough. Android system takes a surprisingly 6 GB to run, so anything under that is just dog poo. But 16 GB?? That's more than both my windows and Mac machine. And there's absolutely nothing I can throw that it won't run. It's even a couple generations behind, but rocking a Snapdragon 8 gen 1 was the best idea I could have waited for. Was going to get the 5S, but thank God I waited. Got it when it dropped around my birthday, so it was a nice gift to myself. I can run Wii, GameCube, PlayStation 2, damn near anything. Would be surprised if it couldn't run PS3 or X360, if the emulators ever surface. But the RM8 Pro??? Man I'm so jealous of that UDC technology. It looks so clean. And the new boxy look honestly reminds me of my Sony Xperia XA2 ultra, biggest phone I ever had. Not quite as tall as the RM6 Pro, creating a wider more cinematic experience, but it was definitely the biggest in terms of overall size. This thing might finally top that. I would love if they had some kind of trade-in program, upgrade my RM6 Pro to an RM8 Pro. 2 years later, and it's the best care I've ever taken of a device lol only one time you gouge and tiny scratch this thing has come after all of the falls and damage it is had to it. Still looks damn near new! So a very solid and sturdy phone. I should have broken it at least five times over, but I will tout this phone for the rest of my life. Thank you Taki, for showing off this amazing device. More people need to know about this company and their phones, they are perform anything on the market. 🙏📲🎮🕹️💜💯
Edit: by the way, that Diablo mode is absolutely crazy. I can push 3Ghz on this device under Diablo mode. That is absolutely insane! 🙏🎮🕹️📲💜💯

Awesome video Taki! Appreciate you investigating the diablo setting. I'd like to see more in-depth videos on this and other manufacturer's phones desktop modes. I've read that Samsung's Dex mode takes a performance hit when running emulators, and I'd for example like to know if this is the case with nubia's, Motorola's, etc. desktop implementations as well.
Desktop mode on this only has performance issues with Skyline, but that's only when you push the FPS over 60. I didn't see any other negative impact during my testing and capture.
I need to get this phone. Coffee time and binging this vid. Tks tks!
What is even the point of such powerful device without an SD card slot! PS2 and Wii games are huge and Skyline emulator is improving fast, internal storage is not enough.
Without SD card this is not worth it. I'm so sick of these companies making near perfect device's and then ruin them without SD card.
Most Android devices can read external memory via otg adapter, so you can add say a 2tb flash card or hdd, maybe even an SSD. But yeah it's quite an ugly workaround compared to just having a built-in external memory card slot
@@BlackNo2 that is not an option for something i have in my pocket, on a TV or laptop it's an good idea, but not on a phone

Is it reliable as an actual phone though, I've heard of plenty of bugs and poor user experience with red magic phones
It is very reliable! Been using it for about a year, already and no bug on my side, best experience for the price.

@@AkatsukiLink and how many security patches you got?
@OverClockeD_GR
This is an important thing to mention. I checked the last 4 models (8+g1,8g1,888+/888) and they seem to have done the last round of security patches in Q4. The strange thing is that not all of my phones got the OTA update that is listed. They put the firmware files on their website for offline updating. Just want to say that software support is a valid concern.

The razor edge has all of that minus the gen 2. But it should only be a little weaker than the red magic.
Imagine an Odin 2 Pro with this chipset
@@reactking7093 No lol the 8 gen 2 is like 40% faster at any given power than the 8+gen 1. If the G3X is based on Samsung and not TSMC fabrication the increase is looking more like 70%. So either the Razor Edge is going to have way worse battery life or way worse performance in any given situation.

There are many, MANY things I don’t understand in this world, but one of the most mind bending is how these tiny little devices can basically outperform my laptop (which is an Alienware m15, I think it was around $2000) and do it costing less!
The boards, and chips are significantly smaller, and how do these things stay quiet, and cool enough when I can’t even hear the music in games over the fan noise?!?!
We truly are living in a simulation or a dream, because nothing adds up!
ARM architecture.
@@sv6k0a39 I’ve heard of it, and that it somehow magically can run off very little power, but if it can do this while, from a dummies perspective, pretty much keeping up the big boys, why is it not the industry standard with all companies copying it just enough to make it their own?
You don’t have to waste your time trying to explain it to me, because even if you could break everything down to something a 3 year old could understand, I’d be just as confused as I am now, while drooling in a corner.
I’m still convinced that whenever you delete anything from your hard drive, a little door opens on the back of your computer, and spits out dust particles… I just can’t ever catch it in time😬
Would be almost perfect if it had front facing speakers whilst still having that screen to body ratio bezeless design and an SD card slot with an IR blaster with unlocked FM radio.

@@telostia no, the accessory adds bulk. The chips have the capability for the radio but are purposely locked down. Also they can still have front firing speakers by hiding them under the glass like Sony does with their TV panels and as we see with the front cameras and fingerprint unlock.

Wow that’s impressive, tech has come so far in the past 5 yrs.
How does this phone compare to say the S22 (or 23) Ultra. Do you really need the fan and the cooling and stuff. What if you just want to run PS1, PS2, and maybe GC games? I’m in the market for a new phone, and would like it to play Game Cube games, that would be cool, but honestly prefer the design of Samsung’s phone.
Same. I prefer the Samsung design and software
No microSD card is a deal breaker for me. I wanted to use it for emulation but those PS2 and GameCube games take a lot of space. So strange that such a nice gaming phone with all those features doesn't have micro SD...oh well I guess I will wait for Retroid 4+ or get Razer Edge.
Just download one game and finish it before downloading a new one...
I completely agree 💯. Without SD card this is useless
@@johnboona4048 And it's not like this phone is rocking 16GB of ROM like the good old days and after everything has been updated you're stuck with like 6GB free. The basic 8 Pro starts at 256GB ROM. PS2 discs (DVDs) held 4GB. GameCube discs held 1.5GB, IIRC. Dreamcast GD-ROMs were 1GB. PSP UMDs held 900 MB on a normal disc and up to 1.8GB with the fancy dual layer ones. You can fit an insane amount of content on this phone without needing an SD card because our retro games weren't that big.

Correct. Once Skyline gets more stable it will run great on the 8 Gen 2.
Skyline is always getting updates every week or two. Next big thing coming is texman in 2 parts which will solve most of the texture issues in games and also Billy is working on a lot of performance optimization, so don't worry since by around the next 4-6 months most games will be playable in this processor including botw without texture issues

Hi, what's that audio adapter you're using with the Kishi v2?
I have a v2 kishi and would definitely love to have a similar set up that would incorporate a 3.5mm headphone port

~4-5 hours.

May I ask what is the gear that you make the headphone jack out?(Maybe you already mentioned somewhere else). Also, what is the controller? I can tell it's not the kishi controller you mentioned in the video description. Thanks.

I've had a couple of Red Magic phones. They were both buggy. There's the obvious stuff like Engrish in the dialogs and menus but sometimes turning them on would have them hang on a black screen indefinitely (terrifying the first time it happened!) and I'd have to reboot them once or twice to get them to start up. As such, I wouldn't get another Red Magic regardless of specifications and would wait for someone more reputable to release a device with this chipset.
No sd card for a gaming phone is a nogo imo. I have an S23 Ultra but I assume it cannot pull of the same things without an overclock mode?

Can you recommend a guide for Skyline?
I have a Galaxy Tab S8 with SD 8G1 (non plus) and I can't get BOTW to start even though I've imported product and title keys and tried some custom GPU drivers. I used an nsp rom without game updates. I've tried combining the base game and update NSPs into one file but that simply crashes the emulator. Not sure what the deal is.
The emulator isn't fully developed and can't fully run BOTW amongst other games yet...
Do other games boot (Sonic Mania)? If so, it's probably the exact GPU driver you are using. That being said, BOTW won't probably be stable for several more months with Skyline.
