Pierce2623 I really doubt translating ARM apps to x86 chips works as the opposite. People have never really worked on it because nobody cares about running ARM apps on x86. I don’t think the infinitely more mature x86 to ARM translation layers can just be flipped around to go the opposite direction without significant work. Intel probably should have steered clear of this. ARM chips will destroy it in any benchmarking of Android apps on these “not Chromebooks”. Reply

Name one x86 app that runs better on Apple silicon through translation than it does on equally modern and expensive x86 chips. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Now don’t bring me something running an ARM native version because thats not what you claimed. Reply
