For $40 you really can't do better if you specifically want a miniature vertical form factor handheld. It hits basically every mark and it's supported by an excellent custom OS that makes it significantly better to use. I picked one up on a whim even though I had zero reason to own one and I immediately liked it. It's just neat.
@@Nexii801 Great device, but the MMP being a bit smaller hits a sweet spot on size for me and it doesn't have chonky bezels around the screen. It's a sleeker device in my opinion, even if the RG35xx Plus might be technically superior.
My main three devices are Miyoo Mini Plus, RG405v and SteamDeck. That said I play on Miyoo Mini 90% of the time. It's so good I had to get two backup units in case it breaks. I love it so much. And I don't think there will be a device like that any day soon or maybe at all
When it feels right, it flies right. And the Mini is perfect in the hand and does pretty good emulation for most of my favorites from gaming history - what's not to like? ...
the quality of miyoo mini is good, you barely see people having problems with it. unlike anbernic and powkiddy.. i got 3 device that died even i take care of them..
Hey Adam! It's been a long time!! There are a TON of devices out there. I have a general idea of what I want from a handheld now. Even still, I get overwhelmed by all of the options out there. If I were to do it again with what I know now it would start with budget: how much to you really want to spend on something you may use a few times or maybe even a few times a week? And then what games do you want to play? I care more about Game Boy and Game Boy Advance games than I do anything else so I can get away with something less expensive. But some people may want something more powerful that can play Game Cube or PS2. If you can figure those two things out, that can really help you narrow down what's right for you. And if you just want something that can just do everything, get a Steam Deck. 😜 I'm kind of kidding, but I'm not. The OLED Steam Deck and even the LCD model are awesome for just about everything including PC gaming and emulation. It all kinda boils down to preference.
So basically Vertical/Horizontal handhelds like the Miyoo Mini+, RG35XX, RG35XXH, (35XX and 40xx devices have the same thing the only difference is the screen on the 40XX is bigger) can play only up to ps1 games full speed and psp games are playable while stuff like(These are mostly less than 100 preferably like 65 bucks) The RG406V, RG405V, RG405M can play upto like PSP full speed and SOME gamecube (like 185USD) The Premium stuff like the AYN Odin 2, Retroid Pocket 4 pro can play upto gamecube and ps2, The RP4Pro can play upto Gamecube and PS2 Playable and most at a 2x resolution (200USD)while the AYN Odin 2 (300USD) can play gamecube and ps2 upscaled and some light switch games HONORABLE MENTION: RP2S The Retroid Pocket 2s can play upto PSP games FULL SPEED for 99 dollars plus shipping but the screen is small, for reviews on all of these devices go to Tech Dweeb's channel or Retro Game Corps
I really think we need another device in the Pixel space. It would be best if Miyoo made it, so we could have onion on it, but I really want it to be something with a slightly inset screen, and NO REAR MOUNTED TRIGGERS. MAKE IT FLAT. And please, for the love of God, why do we not have an RTC circuit? It is NOT that expensive, and a huge number of people would benefit from it.
People still talk about it becaise theyre into tiktok feeds and youtube shorts more than the actual hobby. And dont realize that the 35XX+ is superior in every single way.
The 35XX+ is superior in some ways but also inferior in two key ways. The buttons are still much better on the MMs. And muOS/knulli still aren't as good as OnionOS.
that feeling of "uhm I can't be bothered to do that thing I did as a child again" is good actually. don't numb it with achievements. find a new hobby, maybe one where you meet new people in person
The only reason i still talk about it is about how i sold it. I had an Anbernic RG35XX H and Retroid Pocket 3+, as well as a switch abd a steam deck, the miyoo was just collecting dust. It was the only one that didnt serve a unique purpose out of my devices, other than being the only vertical one.
Sorry bro to be honest, better get the RG35XX SP. For the reason of speed, power, clam and more CFW khulli x64bit has portmaster. Get it and compare it with mm+, make a review you will change your thoughts about this

I clicked on this because I thought this was a new LGR video. You look a lot like Clint haha.
You're not the first person to say that!

Miyoo mini is a banger when it comes to emulation...however a speaker upgrade is clutch!

Price + Onion Os...

Really well done video, thanks! Love the background music and your video essay was perfect!
Thanks for watching!!
I've always wanted to get a handheld emulator, but was so lost by how large the selection was.

I'm impatiently waiting on my mini plus to arrive. I have a 128gb micro sdcard that im going to install Onion OS on.
answering the question in your title : because is a good handheld, as well as the r36s if you want joysticks .
Wish it was just a little bigger.
I actually feel the same way. My hands are a little big for the MM+, but I like how portable it is.

Who hurt you?

Who hurt you that you need validation from games ?

Another great video!
My 10year old nephew absolutely loves his. Probably spends more time with it than his Switch or any other game system.
The only reason i still talk about it is about how i sold it. I had an Anbernic RG35XX H and Retroid Pocket 3+, as well as a switch abd a steam deck, the miyoo was just collecting dust. It was the only one that didnt serve a unique purpose out of my devices, other than being the only vertical one.
Because it's still the best emulation handheld under 50 bucks with the best cfw, dpad and buttons.

You don't need to apologize for having a preference.
