After playing 3DS roms on the unofficial Citra MMJ fork and finding that games would lag. I was really excited to test the official Citra emulator for android.

Citra MMJ was unplayable unless you had a snapdragon 865 or higher.

With the official Citra 3DS android emulator, the minimum specs required was the Snapdragon 835, 64-bit Android 8 (oreo) and OpenGL ES 3.2.

Question: So does the official Citra 3DS emulator for android work for non snapdragon devices?
Answer: Simply no, I tried on a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 with the Exynos chipset.
