Yuzu also has an android build although I believe it runs only on snapdragon devices.

On desktop at least it has an early access programme via patreon (but available here https://pineappleea.github.io/ )

Skyline runs on Android but I've never managed to get it to work on any device. It's no longer in development

If you have anything less than a flag ship from the last year or so, don't expect to be playing Zelda on your phone anytime soon though. Even then I heard people saying their phones were getting very hot.

Source: researching this about 3 months ago to see if I could play BotW on my S21 FE. I can't.

Yes, for Yuzu you need a Snapdragon SoC otherwise the games crash instantly. If you have a Mali GPU you have to wait until they add support for it. Skyline supports Mali but performance is reduced. Btw Skyline ceased development, some of the devs forked it and will continue development on Strato (https://strato-emu.com). If you guys use Android handhelds I recommend using Beacon Game Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.radikal.ga...)
