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

GTA III

      It’s awesome! I wanted something with OLED screen (can’t play on LCD after using SteamDeck), pocketable, comfortable and powerful. It checks all the boxes for me.

      I only wish screen were a bit bigger. There is Retroid Pocket 5 with the same CPU and 5.5", but it’s not pocketable.

      Not OP, but I inquired on the PortMaster Discord and they said it’s not supported just yet. Should only be a matter of time before it is.

        Since it’s running Android, it might not even need Portmaster. You can run Windows games via Winlator. The chip in this thing isn’t bad, so it should be able to run most 2D games no problem
