Bought a Retroid Pocket Mini - eviltoast

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/22613952

I just wanted a pocketable device, so I decided to pick Mini over 5.

Originally, I wanted to order the white color but ended up choosing the black one because it makes the bezels and pillar boxes blend into the case. It also looks like a small SteamDeck 😅

When I’m not programming, I’m playing GTA III on it and earning RetroAchievements 😃

With SteamDeck

    Looks really cool. Where does the mini sit performance wise? Haven’t looked at this one yet. Also happy cake day 🍰

      It have SD865. It’s a flagship CPU from 2019. This may sound not much, but comparing to other retro-handhelds it’s very powerful. Not as powerful as Odin 2, but it outperforms everything else. It’s also the most powerful handheld that supports GNU/Linux.

      Aw, thanks 😅
