Review: Android 10 on the Nintendo Switch is just as messy and awesome as it sounds

15 February 2021
You need a fairly old, exploitable unit to get it to work, but it opens up a world of possibilities.

daredevil, 15 Feb 2021Yea sure buddy. 300$ graphics cards cant run dlss but a 25$... moreAmpere and Turing have DLSS. DLSS needs a good software implementation with hardware acceln. And as far I am concerned, if Nvidia fabs the X1 on a newer process, then they will be able to add DLSS without much of a power draw. The reason why 300 usd Gpus don't have DLSS is because DLSS is only in RTX cards and the rtcores are expensive

      why do I see just a 4 year old tablet with joypads rather than a console? nintendo was the pioneer of gaming consoles in 90s. now they gave the market to sony and microsoft away. they remind me nokia's last golden years.

              Anonymous, 15 Feb 2021But will this get you banned?Good question. No it will not get you banned. Running modified versions of the native OS without a DNS blocker like 90DNS might. In this case, you are just taking back control over your hardware and booting an alternative OS.

                    Release Fuchsia OS already


                    Android is holding back performance of high end chips as Android developers are continuing to use crappy OpenGL instead of Vulkan only approach of Fuchsia OS

                      Tegra X1 from 2015... this thing is useless in today's smartphone world. Now if a 2021 phone can run the switch OS and load their games...

                          Hmmm... maybe I should just stick with the Moto Gamepad on Moto Z2 Force for the time being.

                                    I would love a new geek section where Gsmarena can TEST gcam performance vs stock camera, modded ROMS which actually are better than stock ROM for certain popular devices.
