A new video from Russ just dropped today.
In it, he discusses his current favorite handhelds. They don’t have to be made in 2023, but he is focusing more on the newer handhelds.
As usual, this won’t include everything in the video. If you’re interested at all, please watch the video and give Russ a like and subscribe!
Russ splits up the handhelds by price and gives a few recommendations for each.
“Budget” (around $50):
RG35xx and Miyoo Mini Plus
Best Under $100:
PowKiddy x55
“The Sweet Spot” (around $150, he mentions this is what he recommends you buy unless you have a certain use case):
RP3+, RG405m
If you don’t mind spending a little more:
Metal RP3+, Pocket Flip
Best around $200:
Odin Lite (his only recommendation in the $200-$400 price range, though he says the Odin Base/Pro are roughly equivalent)
Best over $400:
Steam Deck, ROG Ally with honorable mentions of GPD Win4 and AYN Loki Max.
I personally was a little disappointed that we don’t have anything to replace the T618 devices for power and performance even after all this time.
Side Note: I mentioned to Russ a while ago on both YouTube and The Old Place that he might want to post on a federated platform. Nothing yet. He might not even move over. So, I (and others already have) will continue to post his videos here if that is ok.
What do you think about his picks?
