Recent AOSP news had me in shambles.
But I like my stupid games like clash of clans and royale.
My entourage has a lot of gamers. When we want to play together but don’t have access to our computers, we can take out out phones and play a quick game of clash or some other stuff and I’d like to keep doing this.
I’m already a fanboy of Fedora & KDE which I’m running on both my personal and workplace machine. I’d like to also “clean” my phones.
Waydroid’s performance is pretty good.
I never tried any games through it my my guess is it would work, but…
- Still may not be native performance.
- Waydroid’s VM takes a minute or so to start u0 for the first time, and eats a lot of RAM while its running.
- Expect your battery to drain a good deal faster to play your Android game(s)
That said, I will re-emphasize that the performance of apps in Waydroid is pretty dang smooth once its running. I stopped using it on my phone since I no longer needed the one app I had it for.
You can try dualbooting a linux distro with an android. I expect it works, but you cannot be sure with phones.
