This gives me tremendous hope for more x86 game emulation on Android devices, because Valve have been throwing resources behind the development of FEX for emulation on ARM for the Frame.
I am absolutely convinced that my existing phone and retro gaming handheld have enough horsepower for 3D games from 6 years ago once this compatibility layers are built out a bit.
Games from 2019 are certainly playable on relatively modern flagship phones. About the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is where it seems to me where Gamehub and Winlator start being viable for PS4 era AAA PC games. 8 Elite, 8 Elite Gen 5, Dimensity 9x00 and chips are held back by graphics drivers. Exynos with the AMD GPUs seem held back by thermals. Pixels Tensors, thermals and graphics drivers. All held back by immaturity of box64 and FEX and overall integration of those and other open source tools into a single streamlined application

6 years ago might be a bit ambitious, unless you are thinking of certain games that were more AA or Indie.
But yeah, having this in the ecosystem will be great in the long term, no question.
