Does it work with Exynos chips? Will the Galaxy S5 run it full speed?

I'm thinking about buying the Galaxy S5 when it comes out. Will it be able to run Dolphin at full speed? It will have an Exynos chipset.

There isn't a device available right now that can run Dolphin at full speed for like, any of the popular games.

Dolphin can't run Dolphin at fullspeed right now because the ARM64 JIT is still under heavy development.

Is there any word on how far it has progressed? Any timeline published?

To be honest, if you just want to play dolphin, buy a desktop with a good CPU. On ARM, I'm happy if the game boots at all.

I thought we were past the booting phase and onto the rampant crashing phase. That seems to be the most pressing issue with the armv8 JIT. That and it's relatively limited instruction support and frequent interpreter fallbacks

Depends on the game. The games Sonic did test all of the day just works fine. But others often doesn't boot at all.
