Which phone specs actually matter for mobile gaming?

Shopping for a new phone mainly for Genshin and CoD Mobile. Spec sheets throw chip names, refresh rate, RAM and cooling at you. Which ones decide whether games run smooth after 30 minutes, and which are marketing?

Chip first, cooling second, everything else after. A newer midrange chip beats an old flagship. The thing people miss is sustained performance - plenty of phones hit great fps for ten minutes and then throttle, so look for reviews that test long sessions, not just a benchmark score. High refresh only matters if your games support 90 or 120. RAM past 8GB doesn't do much for games.
