The Odin 2 Mini puts a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and a 5-inch 1080p screen in a body Retro Handhelds' reviewer compared to a PS Vita.
Retro Handhelds' reviewer ran GameCube and PS2 games at upscaled resolutions, while DroiX (a retailer) found GameCube not viable; we rate both as most games.
DroiX (a retailer) measured roughly 2 hours 45 minutes of battery under full load from the 5000mAh cell, longer with lighter use.
It has a fan, a micro-HDMI port and a touchscreen; AYN has discontinued it, so availability depends on remaining stock.
