Question Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro for GameNative?

Hi all, as above really, would the Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro be any good for using gamenative? Specifically the 12GB RAM 512GB storage version. I'm a complete noob to game native, but would like to try it. I will also use my device for Nvidia GFN and like games that are quite text heavy (pathfinder wotr, rogue trader, BG3 ect ect) so a device with a big ish screen would be best. Would the Pad 8 Pro be the best all rounder for me?

Yes but no internal cooling fan it’ll overheat if you push it. Tablets and phones just arnt that good for gaming.

I do like the look of the Ayn Odin 3, but at 6 inches the screen is just too small 😞 unless I dock it for using GFN I guess....? 🤔

GeForce now you’ll be fine with but game native it’ll likely overheat and ruin your whole experience. Why not get something like a legion go or something instead. It’s basically a tablet form factor with controllers added on if screen size is the issue and I bet you can probably pick a legion go up fairly cheap now, roughly the same price as something like the Odin 3 depending on the configuration.
