I'd be less interested in faster playback using GPU in favor of lower power for phones prior to decoder ASIC rollouts, which probably wont be until at least next year.
I think Rockchip's recently announced RK3588 SoC for 2020 has an AV1 decoder, but details were sparse in the announcement.
The thing which concerns me most is the lack of any announcement from Qualcomm in support of AV1, considering their huge market share in Android devices
