No store has a current price for this handheld right now.
A metal-shell version of the TrimUI Brick: same Allwinner A133P chip, 3.2-inch 1024x768 4:3 screen and Linux software in an aluminum body.
Retro Handhelds weighed it at 196 g, about 40 g more than the plastic Brick, and found the extra weight barely noticeable in play.
Suited to pocketable play up to PS1; Retro Handhelds found GameCube and PS2 out of reach for this chip.
There are no analog sticks and no video out, so it is a d-pad device for handheld play only.

Questions
What can the TrimUI Brick Hammer emulate?
Retro Handhelds found it handles PS1 and older systems well. We rate PS1 as full speed, and GameCube and PS2 as unplayable.
How is it different from the original TrimUI Brick?
It swaps the plastic shell for metal and adds about 40 g. Retro Handhelds also found the side buttons more responsive; the chip and screen are the same.
Does it have video out?
No. The Brick Hammer has no video output, so it is for handheld play only.
Which software can it run?
It ships with TrimUI's Linux firmware. Retro Handhelds suggests alternatives such as MinUI, Knulli, muOS or NextUI.
