It would drain battery tout suite, but dav1d 0.5.1 is more than fast enough to decode 1080p60 on any iPhone or iPad from the last 2-3 years, perhaps even 4K (though 4K60 seems doubtful).
Even the less impressive Cortex big cores on Snapdragon could handle 1080p60.
Obviously lacking ASIC decoder support is not ideal, but at least it is some support rather than nothing.
Heres hoping future improvements to the GPU code in dav1d will make decoding even more efficient for pre-ASIC devices than the initial GSoC 2019 efforts.
