FPS count is from 25 FPS to 30 all the time. 

None off the games got from 30FPS or more. 
One of the smoothest game to play is this one.

I get a full 30fps on the airstrip on my OnePlus 3 (same Snapdragon 820 processor as your Galaxy S7). Either your CPU clock override is limiting your performance or Samsung needs to update their GPU drivers.

Edit: looking into this more, I found out the skip EFB access from CPU and ignore format changes options are inverted in the Android UI.

Interesting, I get from 25 to 30 if I'm not recording the screen.

Its nice to hear about that kind of glitch on the UI. Testing now with other settings.

All the videos I've seen Dolphin running on S820 + ES 3.2 aren't so impressive, it's like it doesn't utilize ES 3.2 which is unlikely, but it's hard to explain why S820 + ES 3.2 looks worse than A57 + ES 3.2.

Wind Waker on SD808 + ES 3.2 no overclock: https://youtu.be/3sVwxiHpZUg

Note 7 (SD820): https://youtu.be/uGQFObV88ug

P.S. There's a weird thing happening on SD820 devices and on Exynos 8890 (you could notice this on Note 7 video), it's minimising trick. For some reason when you minimize Dolphin you get a short performance boost for a few seconds, it's pushing bigger cores to a maximum on 820/8890. Probably some sort of DVFS or power management kernel settings, or how the system sees Dolphin. This could be a reason why on SD820 you get Dolphin slower than on S808/810

I guess it'll be pretty much identical to other SD820 devices. I was hoping Google's SoC config would have lower cores set to 1.8GHz which should be default on SD821

I notice too, I am testing different things to see a difference in speed. All I can say now is that the galaxy S7 is slowing down emulations just like the Note 7( same hardware). Maybe root and Kernel Audiutor for setting the cores to maximum?

Would be interesting to see of the results when dvfs is disabled, you would need root and there's a simple instruction on xda explaining how to change permissions in /sys folder for dvfs responsible files. But it's not just Samsung, you get same effect from minimizing on other SD820 devices, I personally noticed this on HTC10 and G5
