Pros
- Fills a niche market of mini handhelds.
- Metal casing feels premium. Comes with a cool battery life indicator on the right side.
- Comes with 5 color options.
- Able to emulate up to PlayStation 1. Most games will run well without performance issues.
- Good D-pad – low false diagonals and great for fighting games.
- Decent mono speaker.
- Supports the MinUI custom firmware if you want a better experience than stock firmware.
Cons
- IPS screen has limited viewing angle. Visible light bleed at max brightness.
- Screen has limited brightness range – not bright enough to play outdoors, not dim enough to play in the dark.
- Buttons are loud, too loud.
- As with other mini handhelds, do not expect comfort to be one of this device’s strength.
- Pricey compared to competition.
