S25 Ultra 12gb Ram

Bannerlator Emulator

In game settings 720p TSR 50% and everything else low

Emulator settings 1280x720 , Proton 11arm , Fex2609 , Performance Preset , Dxvk 2.4.1 pre reg

This performance is achieved using custom engine.ini file which I tuned using Chatgpt and Gemini

Here the engine.ini file which I can't provide link fr some reason reddit removing post because of that so Im writing down everything here just copy and create "Engine.ini" and paste all the lines there and then in C drive paste this file in Sandfall>Config>windows and make it read only

Device s25 ultra 12gb ram 8 elite

Oneui8.5 software version

Gamebooster+

Game displayed is Metro 2033 redux

No framegen

https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnAndroid/s/Ue074Lxgdp

The screenshots are from Silent Hill 2 remake and Silent Hill F, and both games were played on Ludashi 2.9 around April 2026, so there's no frame generation or fake frames – it's all raw FPS!

Device used Samsung S25Ultra 12gb ram Snapdragon 8 elite for Galaxy

Gamebooster performance mode used(max clock speed)

I was able to get 2-2.5x more performance than default game using this method!

Some common configs I used were at that time

1280x720p (FSR Balance) Proton 10.0.99BE I guess

Dxvk 2.4.1 my favorite ofc gplasyncarm one

Latest fex available at that time performance preset and latest available turnip for a8xx at that time

I even uploaded a video of SH2 remake gameplay so if you are looking for video proof here it is

https://youtu.be/aZbwph5z3X8

Btw all these I made using ChatGPT , I just asked chatgpt hey gimme Engine for this game optimse it for snapdragon 8 elite cpu and 12 ram 😂🫪 it did the magic

I shared two short clips in the comments, you might need to scroll down a bit. They show the impact of gamebooster+, one clip is mine(s25ultra) and the other is from my friend who has an S25 base.

I've been using these methods to get the most out of my Samsung S25 Ultra. I've played over 50 PC games with multiple emulators, and this method always worked. There's been some bad image about Samsung's gaming performance because people aren't using it the way they're supposed to. I've explained everything in the three slides above. Of course, if you use a cooler, you'll be unstoppable. I use a cooler, too!

Btw my s25ultra is on oneui8.5 Some settings might not work if your phone's on OneUI 8 or older, since I tested everything on OneUI 8.5 and confirmed it with friends who also have Samsung phones with OneUI 8.5.

I upload some gameplay on YouTube maybe that helps to understand the performance

https://youtube.com/@aizenemu

I posted about game performance about two months ago, maybe that'll help you understand what kind of performance I was getting. https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnAndroid/s/vUndpucw5m

S25Ultra gamebooster performance mode(which push max clocks mean higher draw is expected which doesn't matter since I will use bypass charging anyways) *Im not using cooler and bypass charging while taking this screenshot I was just testing how game runs and took a quick screenshot

So, I got this telescopic gamepad with a built-in cooler last month, and it's awesome! The cooler works great, but the problem was I couldn't use bypass charging because there's no pass-through option. I was looking for a way to fix this, so I started searching for a right-angle cable, and luckily I found one! It's perfect for my phone while it's docked in the gamepad. Now I've got the ultimate combo of cooling, comfort, and bypass charging, so I don't have to worry about high power draw while gaming! 🫡🫡

By the way, if you're wondering what gamepad it is, it's called the Outlaw Nava, also sold as the Coolshark jk02, and the cable is from Portronics (not a promotion, just sharing!).

My power draw was crazy since I was maxing out the clock speed, but I'll use bypass charging and a cooler for longer sessions anyway.

I used Winnative Pre Release emulator, Proton 11arm dxvk2.4.1 vk3d 3.0.1 Performance + TSO 1560x720p.

Game runs really🙌🏼

Just brought it today Persona bundle 3 and 5 both at $27 steam

Device - S25Ultra Emulator - Winnative

Emulator: Winnative 0.3.0

Driver: Winnative 1.0.4p

Resolution: 720p

*Don't worry about the temp and power consumption, I was just checking how the game runs. I didn't remove my phone case, so it was obvious it would heat up this much. Plus, I used Performance mode in gamebooster, which maxes out the GPU and CPU clock speeds, so high power consumption is expected.

I've been using this emulator since day one of its early release, and I know it's gotten a lot of flak from a certain team (I won't name names, or I'll be targeted directly, haha!). But hey, at least the devs here actually listen to feedback. I really love the UI, especially how organized all the settings are – it makes it super easy to use. The performance is really good too; I honestly can't remember the last time I used Winlator Ludashi, which used to be my go-to. Now, this emulator is all I use. I really hope it has a bright future, and it definitely deserves more love and feedback from the community. That's just my personal take, though.

Being an Insider I have a news upcoming 0.3.0 update will be big since its bringing lots of QOL updates and features
