chunky ass odin 2 for comparison

Implessive

>another expensive chink handheld released yearly for some reason
why do they do this

Retroid is actually the same company as Ayaneo, and AYN is actually the same company as Powkiddy. It's a common mistake.

The fact it was so thicc is specifically what made it more comfortable than the alternatives. In fact, willingly making it more chunky with a grip maximizes the comfyness.

They keep making slimmer and flatter handhelds, only to sell you a plastic grip on the side because smartphone ergonomics may look sleek in marketing material but aren't optimal at all for actual Vidya sessions.

rp5 + grip is all i really need desu

>>719295179
I have the odin 2 portal already. Why should I care?

Bye.

>>719295579
That's hard to believe, Retroid is very competent, just like AYN.
Ayaneo and powkiddy, on the other hand, are managed by a bunch of retards.

>>719295579
Ayaneo has no similarities. AYN and Retroid use all the same parts and their shit looks nigh on identical.

>>719295931
You don't.
Check back in 5-6 years or something, *maybe* there will be substantial emulator+hardware improvements by then to justifying caring.

Odin Portal has worse ergonomics than Odin 2 so I hope the 3 will be better. But just seeing that render I somehow doubt it.

>>719296590
You have to buy the grip as well just to make the Portal comparable to the Odin2, and even then it's still worse.

I fully expect an official big ass grip for the Odin3.

Why should I get Odin 3 over Thor or vice versa?

>>719296590
Yeah this is the only reason why I haven't upgraded from my O2 Pro yet. Buying an ugly ass grip defeats the purpose of a sleek and modern looking handheld, but unfortunately it looks like all the higher end chinkhelds are doing this now.

Thor is a 3DS. Odin is a Vita.

>I buy a handheld and then put grips on it
No way. I just stream everything anyways
no bigger than the Switch in my hands but feels much better
I'm sure there are better options but IDC

>>719296786
if you don't like the clamshell form, Odin series aren't going to have hinge issues

>>719296786
Hardware, they're pretty similar. The Odin series has a better battery than Thor. Thor has the dual screen functionality with the bottom screen capping at 60fps.

Can I stream from my PC with these chinkhelds?

>>719297641
Yes

Do we know anything at all about Odin 3's hardware?

Alright the preview was misleading, the ergonomics look fine.

is it gonna be smaller and be like retroid pocket 5 but no grip necessary?

>>719298159
Odin 3's hardware hasn't been revealed yet

What's the purpose of higher end android emulator devices when you could just get a phone instead at that price point?

>>719298583
Active cooling?

>>719298583
Phones are in general passively cooled. Even a raspberry pi 5 can outperform a flagship under sustained long-term load due to this.

>>719298583
phones have passive cooling and it's bogged down with other bloatware

I got the Odin 2 Mini and have been having a blast with it.
Absolutely no reason to ever upgrade from it from what I can tell. Currently playing through Luigi's Mansion still.

>>719298583
>at that price point
You usually can't, it's top tier hardware for a mid/low-end phone price

Add to that
>better aspect ratio for vidya, phone screens are taller than you'll ever need for any console game
>integrated controller with extra programmable buttons for emulation
>cooling, which means no throttling
>bigger battery that lasts for hours or days depending on the console you're emulating
and so on

it's a dedicated device designed around one purpose, simple as

I'll buy this around 11.11 if Ayn does a similar sale

Odin 2 is still great, it plays everything I need it to.
Unless there's been a massive bump on the processor or whatever for the 3.

This is literally just the Odin 2 Portal
