==Review=[[Android emulators|Android]]===At least 1 GHz single-core with OpenGL 2.0 would be the minimum requirement to have any decent performance. A new emulatordual or quad-core processor is even more recommended.It may run on a 600 MHz core too, but don't even bother doing so as it has been making tremendous progresswould most likely run at slideshow frame rates on all but the simplest of games. Compatibility Some titles namely ''Colin McRae Rally 2005 Plus'' and ''DiRT 2'' require a stronger processor, and at least one, i.e. ''Test Drive Unlimited' ', is lower than punishing even on the highest-end models. ===[[JPCSPIOS emulators|iOS]]===PPSSPP works on jailbroken iPhones and iPads with Cydia installed, but it is significantly fasterrunning iOS 6 up to 10.x. Note that the JIT does not currently function on 64-bit iOS builds<ref name="PPSSPP FAQ">http://www.ppsspp.org/faq. html</ref> It is only recommended possible to use JPCSP if install PPSSPP (or any iOS app for that matter) on a non-jailbroken device through Cydia Impactor, however. ===BlackBerry 10===All BlackBerry 10 devices will have adequate speed in all games. Only very high-end games like Tekken 6 or Berserk will not be playable. ===Symbian===Second-generation devices (Nokia 603, 700, 701, 808) are the game does not work minimum requirement for decent performance in PPSSPP3D games. However, first-generation devices (Nokia N8, C7, E7, E7, X7, ..) will be able to play all the 2D and Mini-games.
