  • Powerful processor lets you play PS2 and many GameCube games
  • Smooth hall‑effect joysticks and analog triggers
  • Large 5000 mAh battery for up to seven hours of classic gaming

❌ Cons

  • Thick body makes it a chunky pocket carry

  • Battery drains faster when pushing GameCube/PS2
  • Screen is IPS not OLED so blacks aren’t as deep
