If Emacs is all you need, you can run it today with Termux. Dex is of course nice for giving a bigger screen etc.

What this "Linux on Galaxy" thing will provide on top of Termux is X (or Wayland?) and probably a bigger selection of software.

I already tried Emacs in Termux but I was too slow and did crash while trying to do some things.

Nowadays I simply use JuiceSSH and mosh to connect to my main computer. I would like to have Emacs in my smartphone even while I don't have mobile signal though.
