Hi everyone, another note from a friend: if you remove the foam gasket from the original speaker and place it on top of the gasket from your new speaker, that will give the speaker extra padding and will often improve sound even more. Also, here is a link to another speaker (ZT-105) that works well with the device, if you'd like to do a sound test of your own! s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Ddhaw4f
Good stuff man, I have all the upgrades mentioned in this video, I would also highly recommend putting a Popsocket on the battery compartment door, slightly off-center, depending on your hand size, it really was a game changer in terms of comfort; You can easily access the shoulder buttons and it feels waaay less cramped. The Miyoo Mini has been honestly everything I had hoped it would be, and more with how well development has gone on OnionOS and the community at large.
The speaker test for Sonic CD had me pumped, I remember when I first heard that and I still jam out, the stock speakers are quite nice. I still think that is the best theme for a sonic game, I mean it gave us what we wanted from Sonic just being fast!
I really appreciate this video because I was going to "upgrade" mine with new buttons as well, but watching this helped me realize it's kind of a waste of money, especially since I only paid $40 for my Mini. Thanks anyways, Russ.
yeah 100% and most of these mods look sh*t and poorly executed 🤣 should be titled how to ruin a great device and wait even longer after you receive one from etsy to get the "mods" hey look at my ps1 Gameboy 😂😂😂😂😆
The 3d printed grip case that also fits the better back buttons is fantastic for those of us who have a bit of trouble with the size of the device cramping hands. As a bonus, it also protects the screen in travel mode without being as unpocketable as the stock case.
Nice mods. I also think that a wrist strap is essential for this device no matter how you put it, I can't count the amount of times that it might have fall from my hands if I didn't have it on. And we all know how prone to break this screen is so I'd say it's a pretty nice mod to have.
Awesome mods, Russ! I don't have a Miyoo Mini, but is great to see how simple mods can make all the difference in enhancing a retro device! The Miyoo Mini seems like an amazing retro gaming device, though! It looks like a great gift for any retro gamer!
This is my exact mini now with all the same mods! Thought Russ stole mine for a minute. I love it, as it reminds me of my old White PS1 Portable which was my first console ever as a kid.
I just finished installing the Xperia speaker in mine-seems nicer, but more play will tell. One thing that was critical for me was that I had to peel the padded "screen door" soft mesh cover off of the stock speaker and stick it to the replacement before installing, because the Xperia I got was a bit smaller without it and it would sit too deeply in the case-it wouldn't make solid electrical contact without that padding.
Seems to me if you’re in Europe the Sony speaker is very worth it. The front buttons are probably not worth it as it’s an aesthetic change rather than improvement. The shoulder buttons look like a really good improvement. Unfortunately to the UK it was £15 shipping, making it a costly upgrade, but at least I can say they will be better than the default ones for sure.
The maker of the shoulder buttons released the 3D file for printing. It can be done for much cheaper on a domestic printer or in a local 3D printer store.
Where did you buy it from? I’m from NL. Also wondering if the same exact thing done in the video can be done for the Miyoo Mini Plus? I assume the internals are similar if not the same, right?
I recently upgraded my speaker using the Sony Xperia Mini driver and I’m kicking myself for waiting so long to upgrade it. The speaker I ordered was from California so I was a bit concerned it wasn’t a Sony OEM driver. Those concerns vanished once I tested a few games with the new driver. The new driver has far better range and depth. Even my wife, who has zero interest in such things said “Wow, that’s a big difference!” when comparing a stock Mini to an upgraded one. I ordered 2 ea for $20 shipped and will likely order enough to upgrade all my Minis. I’ve been buying Minis for nearly 2 years now and I can’t recommend this upgrade enough, above all others. It’s a *significant improvement* in one’s gaming experience.
I have both the button and trigger upgrade. The trigger upgrade to me is a no brainer and MUST buy. Makes the mini easier to hold and makes the triggers waaaaaayyy easier to press / use.
Phew! That Sony Xperia X5 speaker sounds noticeably better, especially when listening over headphones. It’s not surprising, as Sony takes sound quality on their Xperia smartphones pretty seriously. Considering that Miyoo Mini V2 can’t be found for under a hundred bucks, it’s not exceedingly expensive compared to the cost of the Miyoo Mini (not Plus) models. As usual, great video Russ! I never feel like you’re wasting my time, even on longer videos. Nice work! 👍
Modding the speaker slots (opening them up more) helps a lot with the upgraded speakers. The stock configuration blocks them too much and causes reverb in the case which leads to distortion. I appreciate the smoothness of those buttons. Hate paying for the 3d printed look.
@@jasonshiers5771 perfect! Wanted to have that nostalgia with me for any times I get the itch, but I don’t use a computer enough to justify purchasing one, and I have iPhone so emulators are a bit of a pain. I’m so excited to play this now!
Now to actually get my mitts on one! The official Miyoo store on Aliexpress advised that their next batch would drop Dec 20 at 4pm Beijing time, and I sadly missed out. Chatted with them a bit later and they said that the 300-unit batch sold out in two minutes.
I just did amazon, i got tired of the weird times they would post to buy it on AliExpress lol, yeah it was a few bucks more but got it pretty much the next day ...
Yup! Called a spade a spade! While those buttons look really awesome, I appreciate that you called them pricey. I want them for my Odin but I could not pull the trigger. I'm cheap so $24 is a lot for me to spend on 4 pcs. of buttons, though I think for some time during the initial sale it was going for $13 or my mind's playing tricks on me.
Thank you for this, I found one of those Sony Xperia speakers on ebay for $5.35 after shipping and tax. Been needing a new speaker anyways, my Miyoo Mini v2's speaker stopped functioning correctly at some point, just plays a droning buzz noise even if I turn the volume all the way down. Here's hoping replacing the speaker fixes it, and gets me an upgrade in the process!
I'm using SakuraRetro buttons, those sightly transparents and they look really good. The feeling is a bit raw, clearly more texture that the original Miyoo Mini but they fit actually better than the stock buttons, so it's better overall.
Just fyi anytime you do sound tests you should try very hard to normalize the signals to the same RMS levels before comparing them. You can even put a highpass filter on there to get the relative volume levels and then take it off, so you can accurately hear the difference in bass levels at the same "volume" level. Humans are biased to think louder sounds sound "better" unless they are distorting.
Based on this video I ordered the Sony Xperia Z5 compact E5803 speaker and replaced my Redmi speaker with it. I'm dissapointed with the sound and swapped my Redmi speaker back in, it sounds much better IMO.
At the rate of improvement of these devices I've officially given up on obtaining one. I tried for the last two weeks, work night shift ( eastern US), so I'm always awake. Much like an improved PC graphics card in 2020 it's not gonna happen. I'll get the next gen or the one after that.
Ive dont all this and more. I love the miyoo so much. You should check out the cases that fit as a grip as well..even without using them as a grip they are some of the slimmest and most protective 3d prints ive ever had
I sent a message to BoxyPixel about the possibility of getting an all aluminum shell for these! Please more people hit him up about this so he knows people would buy it. The market for Miyoo Mini is insane right now, especially for accessories and I for one would LOVE an all-aluminum Miyoo Mini!!!
I own Buttons by SakuraRetroMods, a new Speaker and some vinyl wraps to make a matching battery but for the life of me, i cant find a shop that sells a Miyoo Mini (Trans Black) and ships it to Germany under 140.-€ 🤬 Awesome video nonetheless, russ! Enjoy your holidays!
After a few month, finally i can have a miyoo mini. one think i really want to know, can miyoo mini run the java games? have you ever try or experimenting on miyoo mini before to run java emulator? if you do, please make the tutorial. thank you so much. Always waiting for your content. keep retro brother...
Thanks for proving to me that the speaker upgrades are too different to definitively decide one is better than the other. Overall the stock speaker seems good enough for what this device is and any upgrades are gaining and sacrificing some things over others. Ill just leave my Miyoo stock. Great video!
I would LOVE to see you or someone else take a wireless charger coil and put it in a miyoo mini/+ or RG35XX, I think that would be just a huge quality of life addition to either of the devices and it wouldnt even cost $10. I would love to see if it would be possible!
I would have really liked to have seen the #15 speaker tested (different aliexpress listing, previous comment removed for posting it) instead of this needlessly expensive sony one since it's the second most popular choice & miles better than the #8. The #15 is under $4, first I'm hearing of this Sony one but it can't be worth the extra cost.
Is the #15 much better than the #8? I did the #8 upgrade and it is definitely better than stock. I ordered a few more #8 for my other minis. But now I'm curious about #15.
@user-jh6uz7pe4v much better, like Russ I also felt like the 8 was only a very slight improvement, I was disappointed. The 15 sounds fuller, bassier, clearer, it also gets louder & stays clear. The part itself is 49 cents, the rest is shipping, so you can get a few for 5 bucks. Tried to post the link but it still won't let me, you should be able to find it in some of the speaker threads on reddit tho.
Just to confirm, the speaker you are using in this video says EAS1S201A or EAS1S210B on top? It seems there are atleast 2 different versions of this speaker out there.
I'm having a really hard time getting a Retro gray Miyoo-mini. I get notifications when they supposedly are in stock, but I've yet to see a purchase prompt. I'm EST and 9 GMT is 4AM here (The notifications keep happening at around 1:20-1:50 AM EST). Staying up that late for 2 weeks has had a toll on me. Do you have any tips for getting one of these bad boys?
@@FeelYourMind ok if you send them a message they will respond and tell you the date and time. the drop times have been at 3AM EST. it takes about 3 min past to update. add it to your cart them buy it, if you "buy it now" it will get snaked from you wile your putting your PayPal info in.
I thought I had to solder or something for the speaker. If it's just a swap after opening it, I could manage. Might be worth considering if I think the sound is subpar for the Miyoo Mini Plus that I ordered, but I'll wait until I have it and have played it a while before deciding if the speaker needs replacing or not. What would be really nice is seeing a product like this with an OLED screen as the cherry on top. I think people would be willing to pay a small premium if there's a good and responsive OLED screen. And these devices don't get bright enough in the first place for burn-in to be an issue (assuming they don't use a trash quality screen).
@@ekiny Well... I'm still waiting for my order. I ordered a black one from Keepretro and supposedly they all ship before April 30th... but with 2 delays already I don't have much faith. I'll contact them if the 30th passes and mine still isn't shipped though. It's pretty stupid though. Since when I ordered they were still up for a few more days by the time they got sold out. So about a month delay, if not more despite more shipments coming in is just pretty stupid. Those who ordered the purple one have it even rougher, their estimated date is May 10th... but what's more ridiculous is that some of them were actually offered a black one that could be shipped the same day (meaning they're giving them priority over the people who actually ordered a black one). I don't think I'll ever be ordering anything from them again after this.
@@ekiny Small update now, I finally got a notice that it was sent this morning. Still it could take 1-2 weeks before it actually arrives. I don't think I'll end up replacing something, other than the SD card though but it depends on how satisfied I am with the sound.
You have to buy from the official Miyoo aliexpress store. They haven't been putting up a lot of stock in the last month. Prior to that it seems there was a lot more stock.
yesssssss playstation buttons!!!! It's one of the first thing i look into, im picky and don't really like x y b a. Now to find the mini at a decent price lol =3=
I got really lucky and found a Mini on a local markeplace, but a few weeks later i decided to give it to my partner (she's not a gamer but i think that playing videogames can really help her with anxieity and all things related) as a gift, but now i'm seeing all these amazing custom parts and i'm getting a itch to get a second one lol. Damn, chinese companies, stop making me want to buy stuff.
I really want one of these. I ordered it like two weeks ago on AliExpress, and it still hasn’t showed up. I ordered the speaker and a set of transparent blue buttons with the shoulder buttons on eBay and they’re showing up before the device. 😂

Felt the same way about the REDMI speaker. Got it, put it in, and thought, well, that was a waste of $2.
I really want a horizontal version of the Miyoo mini. I'd definitely get those playstation face buttons for that.

Why not add a copper flat heat sink to the motherboard chips to keep it cooler?
I hear that the #15 speaker from that AliExpress page is the best speaker upgrade.
Damn I heard it was #8
the rg353v better buttons are SO GOOD. I love them.
I'm using SakuraRetro buttons, those sightly transparents and they look really good. The feeling is a bit raw, clearly more texture that the original Miyoo Mini but they fit actually better than the stock buttons, so it's better overall.
I had done this to mine already, I love it!
I think there may be a way to solve the back buttons with 3d printing, having them higher up with a stem to push down on the original buttons

Redmi had distortions occasionally and Sony sounded way too tinny.

Yeah, I have the same question.
The redmi note speaker objectively sounds the best. The other two hurt my ears cos the high pitch sounds tinny and gross. The redmi sounds nice
Th mods prices are outrageous - intense manufacturing or not, 32$ for 4 buttons is insane

I am wondering if you can make a aya neo 2 full setup guide, it will be helpful.😊
deliciousness 😁👍
Great video. Im looking for a full CAD file for the complete shell for the MiYoo Mini Plus
Does the speaker upgrade also work on the Miyoo Mini Plus?
Miyoo Mini V2 is like $100+ everywhere now. I'm assuming it's because of the holidays?
You have to buy from the official Miyoo aliexpress store. They haven't been putting up a lot of stock in the last month. Prior to that it seems there was a lot more stock.
The scalpers have been selling at those prices for months now. The official store sells them for $70+ daily but the stock runs out quickly.
Could you do one of these upgrade videos for the rg35xx? Would love to see what I can try
Niiiice
I jave put some thermal pad whit a small piece of copper for better heat dissipation of processor
What pad's size did you use?
@@elimiranda5276 custom size. I have cut a piece and adapted to my needs, I don't measure it
@@kllaus21 I see, thanks for answering! Did you notice any heat difference with the copper?
It looks to me like you got the O button just a bit off alignment 😂
Welp, now I know what I'm doing today. My PSX Sakura buttons just showed up!
yesssssss playstation buttons!!!! It's one of the first thing i look into, im picky and don't really like x y b a. Now to find the mini at a decent price lol =3=
im about to cave and buy a miyoo mini from a reseller if i miss this next restock on christmas :(
I got really lucky and found a Mini on a local markeplace, but a few weeks later i decided to give it to my partner (she's not a gamer but i think that playing videogames can really help her with anxieity and all things related) as a gift, but now i'm seeing all these amazing custom parts and i'm getting a itch to get a second one lol. Damn, chinese companies, stop making me want to buy stuff.
Speakers:
Sony - Great
Stock - Good
Redmi - Bad
Where did you get the blue playing cards case at 12:44?
I really want one of these. I ordered it like two weeks ago on AliExpress, and it still hasn’t showed up. I ordered the speaker and a set of transparent blue buttons with the shoulder buttons on eBay and they’re showing up before the device. 😂
lol those speaker "upgrades". I definitely notice a difference. But they all sound equally trash. Just use headphones, folks.
You link to the Xperia earpiece speaker but would the Xperia loudspeaker be a better option? Would it fit?
Id like to get the shoulder buttons but the ones I've seen online are way too expensive for something I don't use that much.
The Sony speaker sounds much better, but by a tiny portion.
I’m curious about dpad mods because I find the base unit a bit off. Have you modded the dead at all?
Aw snap
Getting a miyoo mini plus. Are the speakers the same size as the regular mini? Definitely want too upgrade if so.
