They really should have used the 4.5 inch 3:2 screen found in the Pocket ACE.

Wouod have been a much better size and would potentially have allowed them to bring the sticks closer together for better ergonomics / everything feeling a lot less cramped.

I'm one of the very few who backed this (albeit the lowest spec + perk + I live in EU).

Tl;dr it meets the very specific niche I've been holding out for: a small, premium, 3:2, d-pad-on-top device with a screen width comparable to PSP and good ergonomics. 99% shouldn't buy it.

It's just way too rough around the edges in some of the most annoying ways. Like I also hate how opaque the uninstallation process is (no visibility in what's removed, lots of residual directories).

Just me?

I've used #EmuDeck for years, but I've had so many issues now (esp with the Win version) that I'm seriously considering just managing it all independently;

I've had to reset my installation on 3 separate occasions now, either due to failures installing emulators, weird SRM errors or buggy updates..

I'd be surprised if it turns out to be as powerful as the Odin 2 (which has a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor). The Retroid Pocket 5 has a Snapdragon 865, I think.

No more info in their Discord server (where the video above was taken from).

Very excited for this, but I still can't get my head around that control scheme...

The placement of face buttons and sticks is most similar to the Wii U gamepad, but in this form-factor it's a complete unknown.

Will it be at all comfortable for d-pad focused games (GBA, SNES, etc.)? No idea. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Almost certainly comparable to the Retroid Pocket 5.

It's just my preference - no hate. :)

I think the PSP/Vita layout is perfect for a handheld device, and I was looking forward to a clamshell device with recessed sticks and that configuration that improved on the first Flip.
