Pros

  • Excellent build quality.
  • Pocketable and meets the fine balance between size and portability.
  • Display has thin bezels and is perfect for 4:3 aspect ratio games. Devices with 4 inches 4:3 aspect ratio displays are rare in the market.
  • At lowest brightness, display is dim and suitable to play in darker rooms.
  • Higher screen to body ratio than competition.
  • The Unisoc T618 provides solid gaming performance to the device. You should be able to play quite a bit of PS2 and GameCube games, albeit at lower resolutions.

Cons

  • Lack of any TV out capability.
  • Display has a low maximum brightness – not suitable for outdoors.
