As of now, Nintendo Switch emulators such as Eden, Citron, and such still do not support ARM Mali GPUs in Huawei/Honor mobile devices.
This incompatibility causes most emulated games to crash on run, which is not ideal for those who would like to run switch games on their Huawei devices.
I currently use a Huawei Pura 70 Ultra, a decently powerful flagship mobile device that runs 3D games on highest settings with ease, and most if not all emulated nintendo switch games (no matter game format) crash and exits the emulator on run. (Multiple platforms have beed tried)
I recommend the developers to come up with a solution or framework regarding this incompatibility issue, so that most of the people willing to emulate their games on a Huawei/Honor mobile device could do so without purchasing a new device such as Snapdragon devices for the sole purpose of game emulation.
As for the alternatives I have tried to resolve this issue, I have swapped devices (All Huawei/Honor devices to test the issue regarding Mali GPUs), from mobile phones to tablets, from 2019 released to 2025 released, and with a variety of Switch emulation softwares and utilized both XCI and NSP file formats, which should not affect anything in this scenario.
Thank you for reading, and I strongly suggest resolving this decade old, persistently occurring issue in Switch emulation.
