Subject: Feedback & Request – Improving Emulated/PC Game Performance on iQOO 15 (16GB/512GB)

Hi iQOO Team and Community,

First of all, thank you for the amazing iQOO 15! The phone truly lives up to its “performance beast” reputation in native Android games (PUBG, CODM, Genshin Impact, Wuthering Waves, etc.) – the experience in Monster Mode + 120 FPS is outstanding.


However, I’ve noticed that when running demanding PC/console games through emulators (using the latest official GameHub and Play Store builds), the device experiences noticeable frame drops and thermal throttling sooner than expected, even with Monster Mode and 120 FPS mode enabled.


Examples observed:

- Batman: Arkham Knight – significant FPS drops after a few minutes

- Similar behavior in other heavy titles like GTA V, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, God of War (PS2/PS3 era emulation)


Since the iQOO 15 is powered by the most powerful Android SoC right now, I believe a few targeted optimizations could make it the absolute best device for both native and emulated gaming.


Respectful suggestions for future OriginOSupdates:

1. A slightly more sustained performance profile during emulator workloads when Monster/Esports Mode is active


2. Possible Vulkan/driver optimizations or whitelist support for popular emulators


3. An advanced option (maybe in Game Space) to allow users to prioritize performance over thermal limits during long gaming sessions (many power users are okay with slightly higher temperatures for stable frame rates)

These small tweaks would be hugely appreciated by the emulation community and would further strengthen iQOO’s position as the top choice for serious mobile gamers.


Note: I’ve already submitted this feedback through official customer support as well (they mentioned they’ll respond within 7 days), but wanted to share it here too so the team and community are aware.


Thank you once again for the incredible device and for always listening to user feedback!


Kindly like and comment for more visibility.



Best regards,
