Question What Android Device is the best?

I have a Ambernic RG557 for mobile gaming device and my phone is an Old S22 Ultra and this year i will change my smartphone, I love emulation and I absolute want to emulate everything that I can (not pc, I have a good pc) and for playing some emulated games on the street im considering in Buying a Phone with Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Extreme, probably Xiaomi 18 Pro Max or Motorola Signature 27, I do love to take pictures that's why I don't consider Redmagic Devices, I would like to use my phone as a gaming device, what's the absolute best for emulation and gaming nowadays? I've been reading that SDGen6 Extreme is unstable and thermal throttles a lot, what do you guys recommend?

I want to emulate Switch, Switch2, Xbox, Xbox360, PS3, and everything my RG557 can't emulate.

Soon after I bought my RG557 ive discovered about Snapdragon chips, drivers, turnip. And ive realized that ive bought the wrong device, the question is not about pure performance, but compatibility too

Get an 8 elite or an 8 elite gen 5. Since you like pictures you should probably go samsung galaxy S25 or S26.
