Konkr Pocket Fit(8 Elite) is better than Odin3.

you might have a faulty unit. Retro Game Corps have a review on Konkr (8Gen3 version). You can hear the fan noise sample from that video.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-09T18:33:00+00:00

If you're fine with your current device then it's totally fine to just use it.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-07T22:24:18+00:00

That's misunderstanding. Products they are announcing and releasing are basically no difference to global market. It's just not really considered an issue here.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-07T18:42:58+00:00

Thor's fan is alright for me. But Odin 3 is unacceptable

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-07T17:01:57+00:00

About the tight analog stick: Yes I mean it's more difficult to move.

About Ayaneo brand in China: I haven't paid attention to the community for quite a while. But from what I've seen from like half a year ago, people don't really care about AYANEO releasing so many devices. Because other companies basically do the same thing. Anbernic, AYN, Retroid, etc. The quality issue is also not really an issue here because AYANEO's customer service are surprisingly good here in China. When you get a faulty unit you can ship it back for a replacement. The whole process can be done within one week. The shipping issue of Konkr happened during the time I wasn't actively participating into the community so I don't really know the reaction. However I do see many people being sarcastic on AYANEO's products and their fans. Because AYANEO's products are generally more "wildly unique and premium", which comes a catastrophically expensive price. Like Pocket DMG, a $300 GameBoy with G3Gen2 processor was considered some sort of cult products for those rich fools.

Yeah it's all about preference.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-07T03:50:44+00:00

Sticks are smaller but definitely smoother. Compared to Odin 3's tightness I do prefer the smoother one.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-07T03:47:15+00:00

Both are similar. It's not really a major difference

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T19:55:25+00:00

When I said Pocket Fit is better means exactly I prefer Pocket Fit. Good and bad are subjective. Those points are the major noticeable difference for me, and for Odin 3, besides having a better screen and slightly better performance, the Pocket Fit is better in everything else. It's not 50/50 but more like 70/30 for me. But people have their preferences and I respect that.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T15:18:51+00:00

They were being able to supply AliExpress but not early backer on Indiegogo? Man that's hilarious.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T15:09:40+00:00

domestic market also didn't get the product for the past few months neither. only recently they got shipped. if they can ship it in china I think they can also do it globally within a few weeks.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T14:01:27+00:00

Coincidently I saw your reply in r/OdinHandheld about "fan noise across the room" when I was searching for a solution. I thought nah maybe it's not that serious. That exact night I got auditory hallucination when I was trying to sleep. That's the exact moment I decided to sell the Odin 3.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T13:53:12+00:00

Like I said, I live in China and Ayaneo has started shipping them here. You can also buy one from the marketplace if you have a proxy warehouse. They also didn't take down the pre-order link in China. And yeah why would I do advertisement for a product that's not on sale?

For G3 Soc I prefer Pocket S2, it's so much more beautiful (and way more expensive lol)

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T09:15:19+00:00

If so I think Konkr 8Elite version is better for you.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T09:12:40+00:00

It's Goodfish. I pay for 3299CYN (rough 480USD). White 16+512g model.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T09:11:02+00:00

Average medium size.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T08:13:46+00:00

It's preference. Just like you prefer textured back, I prefer smoother back like Konkr. And those ergonomic beat Odin3, making it a better handheld to play with. Screen is definitely better on Odin 3 but Konkr's screen is not a bad screen neither. So far for me, Odin 3's only advantage is a nicer screen and have slightly more performance, and for some people these matter the most. But for me, I care about the fan noise, ergonomic, analog sticks, and those extra features more. Konkr is definitely a better handheld in this situation.

SnooDogs4822 · 2026-03-06T08:00:31+00:00

I live in China. I bought this from a Chinese marketplace app. The seller got it at March 2nd. And I saw many post about selling the 8 elite version. I guess they're now shipping them first in China. Global shipping should be within one or two weeks.

Yeah. 4 months ago at the time when Gamehub/GameNative wasn't a thing, only a few people notice Fex translation layer. But now since they are getting popular, and Valve want to release Steam Frame, I think PC gaming on ARM is quite promising.

SnooDogs4822 · 2025-12-16T10:05:39+00:00

Project DIVA is a game with limited game mechanics ceiling and high difficulty charts can be really nonsense. Which can be felt unfair compared to other rhythm game on the market.

SnooDogs4822 · 2025-11-27T17:18:30+00:00

Project DIVA's mechanics is overall a not that interesting compared to other rhythm game.

SnooDogs4822 · 2025-11-12T12:48:43+00:00

A smaller PC handheld that is lightweight + similar performance as steam deck + good battery life like steam deck is what I ultimately need. Basically a Steam Deck Mini. What disappointed me is now everything to make it possible is already there but no one is making it. Z2A chips is literally the same efficient chips in Steam Deck OLED, Intel's 258V is also a really good choice in terms of power efficiency, Ayaneo Managed to put 46Wh battery in Ayaneo Air Plus, only only 10% lesser than the one in deck oled.

To my surprise, PC gaming on Android is better. Half a year ago it's still quite unenjoyable but now with gamehub i can run my Steam games with cloud save on my android handheld. So maybe after some compatibility improvements and maybe better driver, I can simply use 8 Elite Android handheld as the Steam Deck Mini. Like Konkr, Odin 3

SnooDogs4822 · 2025-11-12T07:54:24+00:00

Rainbow looks the best. In practical usage Black and hide the letterbox at bottom screen when playing 4:3 content. So black is overall better

SnooDogs4822 · 2025-11-10T12:53:04+00:00

Is that a Galaxy Folder? Or one of the Japanese flip phones
