    Thanks for the detailed review, seems great for the price! These could also be great as interfaces for ESP32 or arduino IOT projects, I'll definitely try to grab a few ! One of them for sure will be put into a 3d printed T.V. shell and made into a retro console

    Allwinner A133 - Quad-core 64-bit Cortex-A53. That should be able to run circles around PS1 games. It should be able to play some PSP games even, with the right emulator.

    I think it could do PS1 emulation a lot better if you keep the resolution at 320x240

    can you test it with a third part controller that cost below 20 dollars. That's a really good device for a little kid that's around 4 years old that wants to play 2-D games like Mario or Sonic.

      It depends on how you want to do it. "Works with Google"? Yes. Custom scripts? Eh, I doubt it. Would make for a nice Google Home/Google Assistant display, if that's all you did with it.
      I think anything beyond that and it's punching well above its weight class.

      honestly just get the walmart onn branded tablets, they're surprisingly good, i think etaprime and some other people have videos showing them playing some pretty demanding mobile games and emulators (also they're supported better by services that have DRM like netflix)

    Thanks for sharing! This thing is pretty low octane if it can't handle Playstation One games, but it seems just good enough for 16-bit arcade games. Having said that, I think my Fire tablet from 2019 (which cost me just ten dollars after a rebate!) is better suited for emulation. It's just a shame about that annoying operating system...

    • @clausjahnel5379
      @clausjahnel5379 Месяц назад

      I used a few fire 10s - I think 2019 and 2021 - and they were quite nice, especially the 21 variant did well up to and including N64, PSP and DC. Last year I got the fire 11 max, which does the step and emulates PS2 rather well... most games will run at an 1,5x to 2x upscale, lots of heavier titles will do at least native resolution. Just played RE4 @ 1,25x upscale, it worked flawlessly, and things actually look very nice on that 11" screen.
      IMO that's not to bad for a device you can buy for 150 bucks, and that widely feared and despised OS does not harm the things I do with the tablet (watching YT, surfing the web and emulating some classics) in the slightest. The worst thimg that could happen is that you need to sideload an app, when the Amazon appstore doesn't offer it.

    I wonder if anyone was good enough at soldering if they would maybe be able to upgrade the speaker. I think something like that would be pretty cool to see. However, I would probably want a second one just in case one gets ruined.

    Great vid BDT, quick question. the Controller, did you try Re syncing it while in the Game itself? i had a BT Controller, that wouldn't do anything aside pair with a phone, until i booted the emulator, then re-synced it.
    As for the PSX emulation, 2d games would run better. Or try DuckStation
    Annnnddd... no, i Won't buy one of these.. i have a Modded PSVita and a Trimui Handheld But hey for 25 for cheap Emulation, not bad TBH.
    Keep up the great videos!

    The A133P is in the Trimui Smart Pro and BRICK, decent cpus a bit older now, usually capable up to ps1 and some N64 like most handhelds. Is this just the A133? Try some standalone emulators for N64 instead of lemuroid. Even Retroarch might get better performance. Get it from their website not the version on the playstore.
