Pros

Bright screen with thin bezels.
Can be used straight out of the box. Perfect for people who are not interested in setting up the device themselves.
The Rockchip RK3326 chip supports PS1 emulation flawlessly.
Speaker is surprisingly good and unexpected for devices of this price range. It delivers impressive sound.

Cons

Looks and feels like a budget device. Case flexes at certain points when pressure is applied.
D-pad and face buttons are placed too low at the bottom impacting ergonomics and comfort.
Start Select button placement makes it look like a smiling face.
Struggles with N64, Dreamcast and PSP.
