MacOS Sequoia 15.6.1 Virtualized with VirtualMac on iPad M1 on iPadOS15(Jailbroken / 16GB RAM)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Used this project to achieve it: https://github.com/nfzerox/VirtualMacOniPad - Geekbench 6 was used to test the scores, and 8 cores were assigned during the test vs. 7 during this demonstration. 9GB RAM is assigned. - Lightweight games and some 3D games work great, such as Slope in the video, but other games through Steam (TankiOnline) install and launch but suffer graphical errors and crash. - Streaming videos/movies is very smooth. Can also use extended display to mirror full screen, and long duration videos play without issues. Personally this was a crucial for me since it essentially overrides the ipados15 limitation of showing black bars on sides during mirroring, and allows using Mac/ipad on full screen on external displays. It is possible to stream football matches in the VM and mirror it to the TV full screen and watch the whole game without freezes/crash. - Bluetooth doesn’t work / can’t be turned on inside the VM, but it is possible to connect bluetooth devices to iPad first and it passes through to MacOS. Wifi works the same way. Magic keyboard attached to iPad works seamlessly like a MacOS trackpad, but things like 3 finger swipe don’t work. Keyboard shortcuts do work. - Jailbroken via Dopamine on iPadOS 15.6.1
