Would you buy a Switch android clone?

Some wierd responses there. Clearly android has 1000s of games and emulators would be able to run I guess up to dreamcast level at full speed so 10s of 1000s more. It wouldn't be a closed system it would actually run all android games and the VR side android systems, nibiru etc. Also isn't android actually the most popular gaming system in the world by actual time spent playing. I'm sure I read that somewhere.

Lets face it the portable performance of the Switch is right in android territory but docked performance of Switch is at the top end of android performance.

Agree with some of the other points but I think we will see Switch clones soon although not necessarily anything like the spec I came up with. Probably at a cheaper level and lower performance.

I think I'd be tempted if it was well done and I could pretty much run all my android games and decent speed for emulation. It's really how they implement the game controller and how it works with existing android games and emulators. I'd want games to ideally automatically configure to the controller with some older titles having a fast joypad configuration utility. I suspect such clones will be half-baked and not fine tune such details though.

It just does nothing for me. Even if Sony made an Xperia Switch and optimized their forward works games for the device, I still wouldn't by it. In all honesty I would be more interested if it Apple made an iPhone Switch clone.

I just do not like Android. Android TV on Sony Bravia's is garbage, Android on Fire TV is garbage, Android on Samsung and Sony Phones is garbage, I have never used an Android device I liked. iOS is not that much better, but at least it is stable and usually reliable.

At the end of the day I would still rather buy the Switch or Switch Phone, a Surface Phone or Book, or a PS4 based Tablet or Phone. I would either want Nintendo games, or a Microsoft or Sony OS.
