Ultra-low-end business laptops from 2015 with a mobile Intel Core i3, 4 GB of RAM, and integrated graphics still have a dramatically better gaming experience than the Pixel 7 Pro. Why?

By the way, this is even with the help of emulators. Without emulators, gaming would outright be impossible for most people

Actually, the answer for small screens is specially for porn games. A lot of people cannot comfortably enjoy them on a laptop or desktop IBM PC, so they need a device they can take with them into their bed so they can comfortably play these.

Unfortunately, the developers did not listen, so people like me risk hurting their neck and back to play these in bed by using a laptop.

Not to mention, my Pixel 7 Pro has a much better display than my laptop.
