As someone who is deep in the emulation space, it is NOT the same. There’s a lot of negatives to using your phone as an emulator. It’s heavy, there are OS limitations with Android and iOS. Linux-based handhelds can give a more console-like experience.
@@Logan-qi4nxExplain to me why android emulation is bad. I am able to play console generations 1-6 flawlessly and some 7th generation games (360, ps3, wii). Obviously you can't play ps4, ps5, xbox one, series x, or switch games smoothly yet.

Not to say the market is so flooded with lower ends at ~50$ that they're not worth mentioning with a name directly, especially the Miyoo mini which is so widespread that about everyone heard of them - the one mentioned in the video seems pretty much like a 50$ product sold for 100.
The internet is so rampant these days with people throwing up all these disclaimers and warnings trying to skirt rules and avoid legal issues, and yet 99.999% of them are absolutely MEANINGLESS and downright false lies.

When I was a kid I only had those crap pop station games and a gameboy color, getting the full library of gameboy, n64, ps1/2 , etc for the same cost would have blown my mind.
@@kuebbyI definitely preferred my GBA (GBA games) over my GBC. I don't really recall what it cost, but I don't think I it was that expensive per console. I even bought GBA for one of my family.

I'm sure all the games & consoles cost more, but that's why my RoMs are legit, now.

Depends, depending on the price range you get better emulation handhelds. And I'll be honest: Spending like 100-300$ for an emulation handheld (with the more expensive ones allowing for PS2 emulation) it's a no-brainer to just get a dedicated emulator instead of taxing the phone with constant charging.
@@DocRekd-fi2zk a vita can't emulate ps3 unless you modify it so heavily that you definietly don't get it for ~200€, and at that point it isn't a vita anymore either way but an entirely custom handheld with different hardware in a vita shell. And for flagship phone etc. No. It doesn't matter what phone you got, and especially on a 1k flagship phone its just stupid from the get go to kill your battery life for emulation. On lower end phones the same, even if they come close or are good enough for your needs theres no point in having to transfer all your data over again to another low end phone once the battery dies down instead of just getting a specialized handheld that's either cheaper if your needs are low (maybe up to PSP) or about the same price either way and offers better cooling because you know... they were made for running on that load unlike a phone.
If you want a device like that that is actually good, check the PowKiddy X55, PowKiddy RGB30 or Trimui Smart Pro, both of the PowKiddy are using the same SoC, the Trimui is really similar, all three have actual good screen (all 720p, one of them 5.5", one 5" and one 1:1 aspect ratio), they all have good buttons (RGB30 could be better, but they're still okay) and they have a lot more support. Oh, they're also all cheaper, I think they're all around $60-70.
No one gonna talk about how far into that Lion King game? That level early on that you have to jump over the branches on a running animal is brutal, esp as a kid.
The dual home buttons may actually be a deliberate choice. EmulationStation defaults to pressing both start and select together to exit the game and return to the ‘home screen’
I got one but I sent it back. These are only $48-$60 on aliexpress. This company has some amazing ideas and they are making these for an amazing price. You cannot get a rk3566 device (which is the bare minimum for N64, PSP, Dreamcast, and Saturn to run well. The controller design was AMAZING, why are other manufacturers not making a controller style retro handheld with the 50 thousands different designs they have out. But they cannot get the entire device done right, the controls on the M25 were horrible. I have an M19 which is their rg35XX clone, the d-pad on that and buttons were great but the shoulder buttons were placed in the most ridiculous place as to make it unusable, and it didn't have a function button!!! Linus, the RK3566 is a POWERFIUL chip for the $50 range it sells in. I paid $48 for mine, and $42 for the M19! most 3566 devices sell in the 70 dollar plus range. But ya those controls make what could have been great budget handhelds unusable. I'm hoping they do better with their next device. I mean clearly they have access to decent dpads and sticks like the ones they used on the M19, so why the heck not just use those in the M25, come on Sjgam, we told you we liked the dpad and buttons on the M19 and then instead of using them on your next device you put the literal cheapest crap you could find in it???
if the sticks or d-pad is bad its not worth 90, not even 40 or 30 for me, it doesnt even matter how good it emulates. you want to have fun with a handheld and not be constantly reminded of its bad controlls while playing.
This might be really niche, but what about the modability of this thing? If the system itself is okay, maybe one could solder some new thumbsticks and switches for the buttons in there to make it "pretty good" with not too much effort?
I would actually love a premium-ish handheld in the same form factor as the PlayStation Portal but running either Android or something like EmuELEC. While maybe not the most portable, the ergonomics would be fantastic and I would love proper sized analogue sticks and triggers. A nice IPS or even better, an OLED panel would just compliment it.
Their no copyright disclaimer thingy reminds me of old internet where you just put on copyrighted music or whatever and slammed a "No copyright infringement intended" in the description.
I don't think you mean mura, I think you meant screen door effect. Mura is similar to SDE but it's an effect exclusive to self emissive displays. It's an effect causes by each pixel or sub pixel not being the same brightness making the appearance of SDE. Its really only seen in VR due to how big the sub pixels are to your field of view.
Anything other than static heavy games are really unplayable though, Sonic with high latency is not fun at all, compare that to a GBA SP AGS-101, which is packed with quality build for handheld in mind games, with bare-metal 0ms latency, much better controls, which was available in 2002, I'd take the GBA long before this thing.
That could be both a controller, streaming device and stand alone gaming system if sony decided to make one. The touch screen can be used as a touch pad. For touch pad presses, just tap the screen. Perfect size, unlike portal.
Kinhank has a 12tb drive full of games..... you think 30,000 is bad, the kinhank drives got every switch game released, ps3, Xbox one, pc, etc. Not just old stuff like this 😂😂😂😂
That Lion King game is by far one of the hardiest games I have ever played I played it when I was younger and again when I was older and still haven't been able to beat the Giraffe stage which I believe is like the second stage...
Uhhhh, after doing the malware/virus video on those consoles/pcs with preloaded games i would've loved for it to be a default segment in videos including such devices.
the issue with these devices is there is only a handful of main company's that make these types of consoles . anbernic,data frog. miyoo etc 99 percent of the ones for sale on facebook ads or tiktok etc are just some trunk slammer who purchased a container of them from one of the main companies slapped there own logo on the box filled the sd with games some dont even change the games from what the OEM puts in there and then sells them for 50% markup over the price you an get them from directly from the OEM. the common one is the rg36s can be had for 60 aussie dollars on aliexpress with free shipping. then you will see the same device sold by people like SJGAM for 160 dollars with paid shipping lol
Looks like Linus was playing the Master System version of The Lion King. More than likely he played the Genesis/Mega Drive or SNES version of the game growing up.
naaah, $90 for that thing is pretty bad. almost anything from ambernic around that same price will be way better. heck even the $60 anbernic handheld i bought about 6 months ago has way better build quality

I don't think you mean mura, I think you meant screen door effect. Mura is similar to SDE but it's an effect exclusive to self emissive displays. It's an effect causes by each pixel or sub pixel not being the same brightness making the appearance of SDE.
Its really only seen in VR due to how big the sub pixels are to your field of view.
They basically said "no copyright intended!" when posting music on RUclips.
7:06 what is linus recommending to install?
EmuELEC
when i was a kid in 2002 this would have been the dream product.
Anything other than static heavy games are really unplayable though, Sonic with high latency is not fun at all, compare that to a GBA SP AGS-101, which is packed with quality build for handheld in mind games, with bare-metal 0ms latency, much better controls, which was available in 2002, I'd take the GBA long before this thing.
4.3 and 480x272? They use PSP screens 😄
That could be both a controller, streaming device and stand alone gaming system if sony decided to make one. The touch screen can be used as a touch pad. For touch pad presses, just tap the screen. Perfect size, unlike portal.
Good to see the Real Slim Linus stand up.
Sony, please release a PSP/Vita "classic" with all the games you can license from these two platforms!
Kinhank has a 12tb drive full of games..... you think 30,000 is bad, the kinhank drives got every switch game released, ps3, Xbox one, pc, etc. Not just old stuff like this 😂😂😂😂
NGL, the image on the thumbnail looked a little gray to me and I thought you had some sort of "PS1 classic edition" of the portal.
Kid : Mom i want Playstation Portal
Mom : we got playstation portal in our house
The playstation portal in our house
RUclips gives Linus the side eye.
wish you compared it to an equivalent device from ambernic or similar company those have come a long way like the RG35XX+
"They accept no liability... - SJGAM M245" ????????????????? Looks like the SJGAM M25 to me..
That Lion King game is by far one of the hardiest games I have ever played I played it when I was younger and again when I was older and still haven't been able to beat the Giraffe stage which I believe is like the second stage...
They're off their 3d rocker.
So they made what the Portal should have been in the first place... Nice!
The design actually looks more solid than the PS Portal imo
If we’re gonna start doing videos on these, can we get some videos on the actually cool ones, like Anbernic and PowKiddy?
5:35 yeah, I recommend not doing that to any retro handheld
The joysticks are literally just Switch Joycon sticks 😩
I was expecting the ultimate retro emulator hardware.
It was winter in China when this was produced that's why the inches are less than advertised.
I was just watching a video about Lion King speedruns and you choose it as your first game!
Uhhhh, after doing the malware/virus video on those consoles/pcs with preloaded games i would've loved for it to be a default segment in videos including such devices.
the issue with these devices is there is only a handful of main company's that make these types of consoles . anbernic,data frog. miyoo etc 99 percent of the ones for sale on facebook ads or tiktok etc are just some trunk slammer who purchased a container of them from one of the main companies slapped there own logo on the box filled the sd with games some dont even change the games from what the OEM puts in there and then sells them for 50% markup over the price you an get them from directly from the OEM. the common one is the rg36s can be had for 60 aussie dollars on aliexpress with free shipping. then you will see the same device sold by people like SJGAM for 160 dollars with paid shipping lol
Hearing Mura outside of Merch Messages is a jump scare.
Looks like Linus was playing the Master System version of The Lion King. More than likely he played the Genesis/Mega Drive or SNES version of the game growing up.
Bro looks tired. gotta rest my man
LTT must be in the dark with the state of the emulator-device-youtube space. Very bold to show emulated Nintendo IP on screen.
He was real confident about knowing 4 inches by sight.
naaah, $90 for that thing is pretty bad. almost anything from ambernic around that same price will be way better. heck even the $60 anbernic handheld i bought about 6 months ago has way better build quality
Instead of reviewing a anbernic, that's a well known quality retro game console you guys went wild on Temu
I like the design not gonna lie!
Here we gooo 3rd video taken down
testing the water aye
It's already not available on Amazon. Link says it's unavailable. lol
