        No one's saying it is a bad game, so dont get triggered, but code wise, it has issues.

        As for proper games to test the gpu with, maybe try something from Riot or Tencent?

          MindTheGap, 12 May 2024Name one goodly optimized game which is heavier and harder ... moreHonkai star rail is much heavier than genshin despite not being as open world. There’s a good chance of heavier games being out there but they’re probably popular in China and nowhere else.

          We also got some AAA titles that run perfectly at presets graphics for mobile but makes flagships struggle at max setting config like alien isolation

            If an OEM makes exactly same phone made in 2019 but with latest 8g3, Bill of Materials would be $135 more expensive just be ause of SoC.
            This is why phones come with many cost cuts ( lame rear 8MP cameras, weak cooling system) , lower quality screen, worse speakers

            By the way, next year many chinese phones will be going back to plastic frames because of costs of 8g4 and 7+g4

I'm talking about the graphics, not what it upscales to. Because as far as I'm aware not even the 8g3 is able to run genshin at native 1080p 60fps without throttling after 20ish minutes

                        regs, 12 May 2024And how long this impressive performance take until it thro... moreHmmm, lemme see. Oh wait, after many hours it still doesn't throttle, because this is Snapdragon, not the A17 Pro chip.

                            My 888 runs like an oven when playing for 30+ minutes(45-50 fps at ~50C,max graphics ofc)

                                There is nothing, except benchmark numbers, to be had right now. There is no game or app out there that is widely used that the snapdragon 8 gen 2 and gen 3 doesn't already run perfectly. At this point it's just, how much higher can I get benchmark numbers instead of it equaling any real change to the user. Maybe, maybe a small difference like being able to open your camera in 8k .5 seconds faster... That's about it as far as I can tell
