It just has an absolute ton of calculations to perform on hardware that is not made for it.

Then why did it run just fine on 10 year old phones? Its not like they added any groundbreaking new stuff.

It ran while simulating a distance of one chunk at a time. Computers could simulate much more because the game was written to let software define just how far from the user to render. Phones rendered hardly anything which let them at least play the game.

My S4 did comfortable 8 chunks rendering with the redstone mod.
