Or RR3 has to look like sht cuz it needs to support samsung galaxy 1 and iphone 4? Fun fact #1 - iPhone is not an OS. Nor Windows Vista is hardware. Fun fact #2 - games can still look awesome on Vista but you need some serious GPU power for that, just like they can look great on any supported OS with proper GPU muscle behind. Thus I'm not saying a single word about OSes but specific hardware - iPhone(s).

Yes, if your model is freemium then yes - you want to cover as many devices as possible, not just top tier of PHONES, because in that scenario you're earning your revenue by pure mass volume.

You do realize that the sole GTX 1080 is almost twice as big as the whole iPhone 8 Plus, right? And it has 8 GB of GDDR5 for gaming while the iPhone 8 Plus has only 3 GB of RAM for everything. So it's much bigger, heavier, has great cooling, its idle power consumption (7W) is higher than full-load consumption on any iPhone), it's casually averaging more than 170W when under load, but you still expect to have that same output from one weakling in comparison? Realism at its finest.

Now add 16-32 GB RAM around that GTX, strong Intel or AMD CPU, strong power supply, proper cooling, fast SSD(s), 144 Hz monitor(s) or VR...

Yeah, I would also like to have this kind of experience right here on my phone, without overheating or battery draining. It won't happen anytime soon tho (if ever), deal with it.

But then there's another thing to complain, probably. It's not coming from Vesaro: My wife would not be amused if she came home to that one day.
