Amazing device, one small (imo) drawback
I bought it a few weeks ago and honestly only have one complaint which ill adress at the end. For starters this thing is damn amazing at everything it does, and it does a lot, its so powerful you can play older pc games as well as older console and modern android games with some modern pc game ports, my favorites of that last category in specific are alien isolation and subnautica, both can and will run at 60fps smoothly when set to do so. The battery lasts for days on end when in lower gaming situations, and on high it will last an entire day damn near, i love this device. i dropped it accidentally and it bounced, it was outside and it fell out of my bag when traveling, absolutely took it like a champ, no cracked screen and it landed on it directly, not even a scratch, only a small scuff on the triggers and the palm rests, thats all. Amazing device super easy to use and customize i just wish it didnt restart itself every 30 seconds when the screen is just sitting off, sometimes ill have it sitting at a spot in a game that i wanted to save and it will restart without my consent, it doesnt do it often when games are active or background processes are running, its as if the device is restarting to make sure its still operational, unsure what that issue is caused from however that is honestly my only complaint, the rest is nothing but love and joy for this device, its amazing

Lots and lots of switch games!
Amazing! Playing lots of switch games that emulate perfectly. I’m into rogue lite/like and retro arcade games so there’s lots of switch games that play. It’s all hit and miss but I’m shocked and excited by how many do. It seemed like some reviewers were completely discounting switch emulation with this machine. I’m not sure what games they were trying but I’m satisfied with the selection that do run! In my experience over 70% of roms run well! It’s not quite as good as the steam deck in putting a game to sleep and then waking it up but I it’s close. Android has come a very long way in that department (I’ve been an Apple user for years now). The black colored one is awesome at hiding the black side bars of non 16×9 games. It plays all the Android games, plus every console up to the switch. It plays most PS2 and GameCube games and lots of the Switch games, and then pretty much everything else. Call me happy! I’m not gonna lie, setting it up completely takes time, but if you’re like me that’s part of the handheld emulation game. I actually enjoy taking the time in getting it set up perfectly. So if you’re looking for something all setup and ready to go look elsewhere. This won’t be the handheld for you. If your looking for something with these specs that needs setup from scratch and can provide your own roms you can’t find a better handheld for the money!

Beautiful device, I do recommend it. It just wasn’t for me.
By all rights this thing should have a five star rating from me. Because it’s a great little device, relatively comfortable to hold because it’s so lightweight. It has a beautiful screen. It does everything it says it should. But it just wasn’t generation for me.It does what it says perfectly, emulate games, I can play most android games everything I tried play fine, I even played around for a little bit with game native and was able to play some lower end steam games. That’s right PC games on it.However, I think there’s too many other options. like my iPhone can emulate a lot of games and I already have it and I do have a Gamesir controller for it so it works just fine.I also have an Asus ally x which can emulate and play most of my PC library without a problem ( with some visual sacrifices)I understand this is more capable of an emulator than an iPhone is and I’m probably switching back to android next go round so I’ll have the same basic capabilities as a device like this.So I do actually recommend the retroid pocket 5, it just wasn’t for me, I ended up returning it after about a week.Just make sure you know why you’re getting it.

This thing is a beast, it can handle more than I thought it could. You can emulate pretty much everything up to Switch. You can even play PC games on it if you know what you’re doing. The potential is really amazing if you take the time to tinker with it. But even if you don’t tinker much you can easily set it up to play lots of old games. Also great for native Android games. The screen is incredible, so vivid and bright. Ergonomics could be better but it’s still fine, you can buy or 3D print a grip if needed. Body feels very premium. Just such a great little device, worth every penny.
