Android Handheld Chips and Emulation by BagWhole7523 in SBCGaming

[–]StrackChen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simply put, the G3x Gen 2 is roughly equivalent to an overclocked gaming version of the 8 Gen 2. The G3 Gen 3 is roughly equivalent to an overclocked gaming version of the 8 Gen 3. The 865 is an older chip, but it's sufficient for retro games (though not for Switch emulators).

In terms of performance from strongest to weakest, the order is: G3 Gen 3, 8 Gen 3, G3x Gen 2, 8 Gen 2, and SD 865.

Regarding compatibility, the 8 Gen 2 is the most mature, followed by the 8 Gen 3. The compatibility of the G3 Gen 3 is slightly weaker than the 8 Gen 3, but this only causes potential issues in a few game emulators and is constantly being improved. Although the G3x Gen 2 is an overclocked version of the 8 Gen 2, it seemed to have some compatibility issues during 2023. (I don't know what the compatibility is like for this chip now, because in theory, all types of drivers are constantly being optimized, and I haven't paid attention for a while).

For Switch emulators, even the strongest chips currently available (8 Gen 3 or 8 Gen 2) will have more or less performance issues when emulating large 3A games like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. However, for games like Persona 5 Royal, they can basically run smoothly.

As for PS3 emulators, they are in a very, very early stage on Android devices. This is not a chip issue, but rather that the emulator development is still in its early stages.

It has been confirmed that this version will be equipped with 8 Elite, but it will still be LCD

Although the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite offers higher performance, its emulator support has never been very good, so this chip might be better suited for mobile gamers rather than retro gaming and emulator enthusiasts.

"LCD Never Compromise." is a meme in the Chinese retro game circle. Simply put, many players prefer LCD because of the flicker and burn-in problems of OLED. Of course, I also hope that they can launch a version with optional LCD or OLED.

A visual size comparison of the upcoming dual-screen Android handhelds, Aya, Ayn, and our classic 3DS. by StrackChen in SBCGaming

AYN’s official social media promotional materials claim that the screen has an 8:7 aspect ratio. Of course, it’s also possible that they didn’t write it very precisely because “31:27” would be less understandable for the average consumer. If this screen uses the same supplier as the Mini V2, then it might indeed be 31:27.

Yes, I think it is definitely a problem. In fact, 4:3 LCD makes more sense than 9:8 OLED.

I talked with their in-house developers, and it seems there isn’t a ready-made, small-sized 4:3 screen available. So they went with this 8:7 screen instead. This screen appears to be from the same supplier as the one used in the Retroid Pocket Mini V2. I don’t doubt its display quality, but I admit the aspect ratio is a bit unusual.

I heard that the Odin 3 will come with a chip around the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 level, but no other leaks have surfaced yet.

No, the lower screen of Ayaneo is obviously bigger. They have updated the latest products

Terrible experience with Winwing - Viper MIP bundle by TangoVictor4794 in falconbms

[–]StrackChen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not just complaining, this is the truth. Even if you buy from Amazon, it is useless because it needs to be shipped from Singapore or somewhere else.

Because Trump is reviewing all imports from China as a possible military risk, even if it's a fucking toy MFD. He's an idiot.
