High-end Android phones are now powerful enough to emulate the PC version of Cyberpunk 2077 — YouTuber gets 2020’s hottest PC game running at playable frame rates on Red Magic 11 Pro

This was made possible by the Red Magic 11 Pro, a powerful Android smartphone with an internal liquid cooling system and active cooling fan, paired with GameSir's GameHub platform.
