    • RP5, my new bestie
Color: Black
Great device! Excellent battery life. There is a bit of setup required to get it going, as far as emulators are concerned but I have been able to play everything up to PS2, GameCube, even some Switch titles (LEGALLY OF COURSE).... Runs Xbox Remote play with grace and a good internet connection. Steam games play wonderfully via Moonlight, and if you're brave and patient enough Gamehub works great too. Build quality is excellent, device feels solid and substantial. OLED screen is amazing and brings life to older games and newer alike. Buttons feel great, good quality push to them. Sticks are hall effect and feel good and not cheap or stubby. Plays android games of course via Google Play Store. One thing to be aware of, I have larger hands and they can get a little cramped with the device after awhile. I would suggest getting the case addon that extends handles out much like a controller, well worth the money. ... show more

    • Small cute and affordable handheld
Color: Black
Very cute product, and is incredibly powerful for the price range. Playing something such as Mario 64 may last the battery as long as 15-20+ hours, I believe. The screen is incredibly vibrant too. It prompts you through a super simple startup guide that installs apps like Citra, Retroarch, Dolphin, the like. Stuff you're used to with these kinds of handhelds lol. Thank GOSH it's another product that also has Google Play services disabled by default. It is already incredibly powerful but RAM hogs such as those services are good to keep to a minimum :) I just flipped it on when I needed to install some of my paid games like Terraria and Minecraft lol. Which those run great by the way! From the Android native games I tested- Terraria, Fortnite, and Minecraft- they ran great. You'll have no problem with Java MC through Pojav either. Anyway, retro games are of course going to play great and even up to a certain "small" company's console that released in March of 2017 runs well on it too.. But you will have to pick and choose certain settings and not everything will work. TOTK for example is not going to be a very smooth experience. Something like Wonder though will run.. Wonderously.. 😏 Unfortunately for me, the product was too small for my hand size ergonomically, but take this as a potential plus as it's definitely marketed this way! It's about the same width standing up tall as my iPhone 15 Pro, plus an added inch and a half or two for the controls. It fits in the pocket which is a super bonus. So if you're into relatively the Vita form factor and can see your hands working on the joystick positioning on the bottom, I say GO FOR IT. It's going to be hard to beat this quality and size at this price range. ... show more

    • Absolute best retro game console
Color: Black
I did a lot of research before hand and got this for a Xmas present for my teen. This is by far the most affordable and best quality retro game console. It’s actually consistently on top five list and considered a mid price but functions like a very top end system. It fits perfectly in my son’s large man sized hands comfortably. It sets up easily and is very sleek. It plays all his favorite games and he’s so happy! A big win for this mama! ... show more

    • Amazing device, one small (imo) drawback
Color: Black
I bought it a few weeks ago and honestly only have one complaint which ill adress at the end. For starters this thing is damn amazing at everything it does, and it does a lot, its so powerful you can play older pc games as well as older console and modern android games with some modern pc game ports, my favorites of that last category in specific are alien isolation and subnautica, both can and will run at 60fps smoothly when set to do so. The battery lasts for days on end when in lower gaming situations, and on high it will last an entire day damn near, i love this device. i dropped it accidentally and it bounced, it was outside and it fell out of my bag when traveling, absolutely took it like a champ, no cracked screen and it landed on it directly, not even a scratch, only a small scuff on the triggers and the palm rests, thats all. Amazing device super easy to use and customize i just wish it didnt restart itself every 30 seconds when the screen is just sitting off, sometimes ill have it sitting at a spot in a game that i wanted to save and it will restart without my consent, it doesnt do it often when games are active or background processes are running, its as if the device is restarting to make sure its still operational, unsure what that issue is caused from however that is honestly my only complaint, the rest is nothing but love and joy for this device, its amazing ... show more

    • Absolutely amazing, powerful, super portable handheld android emulation machine
Color: Gc
Awesome android emulation console. Only comes with 128gb of storage, so a large micro sd card is recommended since the games you'll more than likely want to load onto this thing are quite big and the size can add up fast. The OLED screen is absolutely gorgeous and the device feels amazing in the hands. Retroid makes a grip for this handheld that makes it a little bigger, but supposedly improves the ergonomics by a ton. If I could improve one thing, it would be for the left stick to be above the d-pad instead of below it. It's a relatively small thing, but would make this device so much more comfortable for playing more modern games. Anyway, this thing is pretty powerful and can play games from any retro console up to the 6th gen, some games from a more modern console, Windows games through Winlator, and native android games. This thing is the perfect size for portability and you really just can't beat that screen. Totally recommended, but probably not for total beginners like one of the other reviewers who expected games to come preloaded. ... show more
