BEST Bang For Buck Handheld? | Retroid Pocket 4 Pro Vs TrimUi Smart Pro!

Ойындар

I actually have a soft spot for the TrimUI Pro but is it seriously a contender next to the Retroid Pocket 4? In some ways yes and others no - still here is what it can do in comparison!
Welcome to this new handheld tech channel for 2024 - It's a place where I can just enjoy the nerdier aspects of my passion for gaming. If you enjoy it consider sticking around!

    Great review. I have the RP3 plus and the Trimui with a 4 pro on the way. Surprisingly, I still like the Trimui including the slightly clunky software. It plays PSP quite well too. It feels great to use and actually has a fairly good screen and speakers. If the Retroids didn't exist I'd be happy with the Trimui - the sticks seem fine to me too.

    ​@@MarkiTechYt Have you tried calibrating them? There's a option for that in "settings". Plus, I've heard that either a firmware or sd card update addressed issues (don't remember which) with the joysticks, if maybe you're using an older version?

    I've had my Trimui for a few weeks now, and absolutely love it. The analog sticks work just fine for me, and I never really need the triggers, so it doesn't bother me that they suck. I don't have much use for Dreamcast, but the PSP games I play work just fine. My only real gripe with this device is that it doesn't play GameCube,...but then I bought it before I realized that I'd rather have GameCube than N64, NDS, or Dreamcast. Hopefully in a few years Trimui will make one that does,...and I can wait, 'cause the Retroid is so damn butt ugly! 😁

    Go for a retroid pocket 4 or + if u need gamecube emulation. My dimensity 810 oneplus n300 phone i got for 50 usd. plays gamecube flawlessly, and I bought a 20 dollar controller to attach to it.

    So far, with just a few days with Trim UI and I like it for the price! My issue is kust that the firmware update has been a real trick to get loaded on here! Im not used to creating a bootable drive so, thats my main issue. And then its all about unzipping the update, moving the games back over from the original card, idk. I think maybe ive seen an easier way if doing it but.

    На превью у вас 50$ vs 150$ Где вы такие цены нашли? Особенно на retroid "Немного доплатить..." Немного?! 60-70$ против 170-200$ это в ТРИ раза больше. Тогда steam deck лучше купить, всего то нужно 500$ доплатить😂 А если серьёзно, то TRIMUI SMART PRO, учитывая её цену, уделывает всех конкурентов в этом ценовом диапазоне, не смотря на все её недостатки.
