I've been using my OnePlus 6t since launch and love it, but I am very interested in Linux phones now. I've been an early adopter before, but it's finally getting where I think I need it to be to try. I pretty much only do basic phone functions and emulation. Would a Pinephone Pro have the power to run something like a Wii or 3ds game? What about an older ported game like STALKER? Curious just how much it could do

    Ouch no openGL or Vulkan? That's rough. I expected the native Linux phone to have better hardware support :/

      It has OpenGL 3.1 IIRC. The Panfrost developers have said that Vulkan is not going to happen for Midgard GPUs, which is what the PinePhone Pro has. Later OpenGL versions still may be possible.
