    I switch platform to Android and set edit->Graphics Emulation->OpenGL ES 2.0, the performance seems all right just like PC platform. But when I set edit->Graphics Emulation->No Emulation, the scene seems much more bright which is very different with PC build. And when I build a android release, it looks the same with "No Emulation" on device.
    I changed settings like "gles 3.0/2.0/auto", "rendering path->deffered","rendering path->legacy deffered", "rendering path->forward", doesn't work.
    Could anyone help?Thanks a lot!

    When I work on Android I open Unity with this: -force-opengl

    And then I also may have the Emulation>OpenGL 2 set as well.

    If you have shaders that only work for ES2 for example, then that's when using the emulation helps to see that.

    The emulation setting is for editor only.
