    I tried emulating PC games on a Pixel phone, and I have mixed thoughts

    One of the more notable emulation stories in the last couple of years has been the rise of apps that let you play PC games on your Android phone or tablet. No, we aren’t talking about streaming, either, but actually running these games via emulation/translation.

    Winlator and GameHub are the two leading apps in this regard. The latter recently received an update that improves performance on devices with Mali GPUs. This came about via a partnership with MediaTek, but developer GameSir told us that this should also benefit Google Pixel phones. So, with that in mind, I thought I’d try playing some PC games on my Pixel via GameHub.
