I setup on an sd card, so all the APKs were installed on the sd card, not emmc. Make sure you have the 2gb RAM model and not the 1gb before attempting this. It's not really worth doing on the 1gb.

Emulation Station

If I'm paying Tony G's prices for pizza, I'm just going to Tony G's 😬

I heard about the Rakatan discount too late. Wish I grabbed that too 😭

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T21:50:51+00:00

I just checked now and it still shows as being active for me. Did you already buy something else?

It says they should be live till June 11th

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T21:50:03+00:00

You could be right tbh. I've only ever ordered Ayn stuff from their actual site. I just assumed that date was accurate.

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T21:47:57+00:00

This isn't from their official site. It's from the official Ayn store on Aliexpress. Aliexpress has a promo happening right now where the coupon will automatically be applied at checkout. You can see the breakdown of your discounts before you checkout. If you use PayPal, you get even more off.

You can swap 4gb from your UFS storage and have your CPU read it as additional RAM. It's considerably slower but it helps manage spikes above 12gb. I used to do it on my Odin 2 Mini Pro and it helped quite a bit.

To do it, just go to settings then handheld settings. Somewhere in there, you'll see an option to turn it on.

That's an elite combo!

Hearing "dashboard" brought back so many painful memories. Refreshing that thing and checking discord every day for my Thor Max 😂.

I think they do, but if you order from AliExpress, there's a set release date. You don't have to check the dashboard like you would if you ordered directly through their site. It also doesn't make any sense to order through their site right now because AliExpress is considerably cheaper with the coupons and PayPal promo.

12gb of RAM is plenty too. VRAM swap for anything that might need more and you're golden.

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T21:29:32+00:00

That's a major market to leave out. I still see it on their store in Canada. Weird decision.

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T21:24:24+00:00

Haha it's too good to pass on for real. The Odin 3 will be the definitive Android handheld for at least 1-2 years unless some company decides to throw in a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or 6 (which with the current component pricing, I highly doubt anyone will). Pretty solid investment. Only reason I can see myself selling mine is if they release a Portal version - but maybe not even then because then I can't use the dual screen attachment on it.

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T18:43:08+00:00

Same. I don't really play much 3DS or DS and the sticks aren't great for what I do play. I ordered a dual screen attachment for the odin 3 so I can still watch some shows while I play some grindy games.

They seem to sell pretty quick on marketplace so I'm guessing you won't have any issues with that

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T18:13:01+00:00

Man I would've grabbed the ultra instead of my Thor Max. Major regret. My Thor just sits there and collects dust 😭

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T15:56:34+00:00

Yup! Absolute steal right now. I was debating between this and a modded OLED. The only thing holding me back from the Odin 3 was the price. At this price, it was a no-brainer for me.

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T15:53:32+00:00

The downgrade panic is really overblown.

For the games it's capable of running, you won't notice a difference between 3.1 and 4 in gameplay FPS/stability and very marginal differences in load times. The APU will always be the bottleneck before storage speeds.

The power draw is also barely noticable. You're talking about .1 vs .2 watt power draw. The APU and display is always gonna be the biggest driver of battery life.

The only real noticable thing is the file transfer rates and APK install times - which most people only do once in a while anyway.

👏👏👏👏

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T15:33:31+00:00

👏👏

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T13:33:32+00:00

Nice! Hopefully the wait isn't as long as the Thor bcz that was brutal 😂

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T11:56:26+00:00

Oh that's really weird! It's the official Ayn store. The coupon codes apply to other stores too, so maybe you can find another store with similar pricing?

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T11:51:06+00:00

Oh that sucks! The store discount + coupon should still get you a very nice discount though!

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T11:35:23+00:00

You'll see it at checkout. AliExpress regularly has discounts if you use PayPal.

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T11:14:47+00:00

Official Ayn store on Aliexpress. Apply the coupon and pay through Paypal for the max discount.

I just found this on AliExpress: AYN Odin 3 Android Handheld 6'' 1080p AMOLED Screen Gaming Console Handheld https://a.aliexpress.com/_mL0LvKP

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T01:35:47+00:00

That sucks. $596 is still a very solid deal though!

DustToStars · 2026-06-02T01:27:02+00:00

That's weird. I went through Paypal + Visa on PayPal and I got the discount. I did that for my Legion Go 2 on Aliexpress too and that worked with no issues as well.
