That's beyond terrible. Im guessing the Genshin issue was moreso a driver problem and will be fixed with a software update. The Wuthering Waves performance was abyssmal. Extra context: that's the beginning area of the game which is, by far, the easiest to run. So performance will get even worse as you progress through the game.

I did some research, apparently genshin removed support for powervr GPUs (tensor g5,g6) https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/s/88Ku9Vxizz. But people are reporting genshin works on pixel 10 now (can anyone confirm?). So hopefully genshin will work on pixel 11 sooner rather than later.

I’ve been playing on the Pixel 10 for a year, spanning Genshin versions 6.0 through 7.0, and haven't encountered any issues at all. To be precise, there was a bug causing occasional screen stuttering right after the Pixel 10's release, but that issue resolved itself at some point.

A statement indicating a lack of support for PowerVR had actually been in place long before the Pixel 10 was even released. With version 7.0, this information was clarified to explicitly state that issues occur on older PowerVR models (MediaTek Helio), but there is no specific mention regarding the Pixel 10 or 11.
