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.

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.
