One plus pad 3 is a surprisingly good gaming tablet

Everybody who have bought their one plus pad 3 by now are probably enjoying the heck out of this tablet. I don't even need to tell you the details as there's tons of good videos about this tablet out there but among all of them NOBODY brought about it's gaming side aside from the fact that it has 8 elite. Let me tell ya brother i have been playing and emulating pc games on this badboy and this thing SLAPS I don't even use my pc a lot now because of this. Also if you're playing an online pvp game like CODM/MLBB/ETC And you're extremely not used to massive tablets YOU CAN JUST "SPLIT VIEW" it and you can play like you're playing on an oversized PHONE!!!

There's no heating issues and if it is getting heated up due to you emulating a demanding game just put a fan directly on it's back and IT WILL COOL OFF EASY!!

Games like CODM and Mlbb on Ultra settings run smooth, no heating issues, no lag. Sound is absolutely beautiful btw too.

Display is gorgeous and the battery life ooooooo the BATTERY LIFEEE! This bad boy is so good i can play from 6AM at 100% and put it down at 2pm at 20% ON STRAIGHT GAMING!!!! That's like UNHEARD OF!

SO YEAH! TLDR:

IF YOU'RE A GAMER AND ARE HAVING HESITATIONS ON GETTING THIS BECAUSE YOU PLAY A LOT, JUST GET IT BROTHER, IT'S GOOD!

Is Nova Launcher safe anymore?

I've been still using it since I paid for Premium awhile back but I've been hearing with them under New Ownership that they have been tracking people and plan to put AI into the Launcher and track people more that way. Is this true? If yeah I'll probably switch to LawnChair Launcher I was using that for awhile and it worked great on my Google Pixel Phone's and I think it's Open Source.

Is there a way to run x86 software on android?

Obviously it won't be native, but I don't know what kind of emulation options there are.

I am considering getting a used flagship android and hacking it for admin privileges or swapping the os to linux so I can then emulate windows to run some MMOs and games that are PC exclusive.

Obviously new stuff would not be performant enough but I'm thinking old stuff like DDO, SWTOR, Mabinogi, Tiberian Sun, etc.

Running Minecraft without the emulation step would be a nice bonus.

But the critical step here is if I can emulate x86 on an arm device.

So, is it possible? If so, any advice on making it work? I have a limited budget and a desire to avoid the new windows scam.
