Technically, the AYANEO Pocket S boasts a Qualcomm #Snapdragon G3X Gen 2 processor, with options for 12GB or 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM and storage ranging from 128GB UFS 3.1 to 1TB UFS 4.0. It features a 6” IPS touchscreen with resolutions up to 2560x1440, and includes Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.3, Hall effect analogues, macro buttons, and a 6000mAh battery, all within a compact 8.42 x 3.3 x 0.55 in a #handheld frame weighing 350g.
[UPDATE} Screen mapping is supported in the Pocket S. To enable it you must first load the game and the option will be on the overlay software. Apologies for missing this, it was not apparent at the time of us testing it. I have added a note in the review as well.

@droiX_Store what RAM models are the Odin2 and the Pocket S that are shown in the video? Does the Ram make much of a difference?

@DroiX_Store 22 дня назад

I would have to check when back in the office on Tuesday which amount of RAM was on the Odin 2. If I remember right the Pocket S was the 16GB RAM version. Extra RAM is always good, though Android is pretty good for RAM management. 12GB vs 16GB for example may make a small difference for loading games but I don't think you would notice much.

great music sir!!!!

thanks! check out www.udio.com/ where we made them

Now that we have the Odin2 mini coming out we might all have to go back and revisit our videos. The mini LED will make or break it

Yeah we will do a comparison when we get our hands on it.

@CelsoJuniorGamer 26 дней назад

The GPU from Pocket S have stability issue, you can check it with 3dmark extreme life stress test. Odin 2 is more stable then it.

Another great vid but man that music @6:30 was just too much. I know you can't please everyone but its 3AM here lol!!!

@DroiX_Store Месяц назад

Thanks for the feedback. Everyone has different tastes which is why we change the style of music for each song. Personally I like most music apart from country and classical :) You have first choice for one of the songs style in our next video which will be the GPD WIN MAX 2 2024. (We have one before that but it is already finished editing). Let me know and I will get busy with Udio.com!

@DroiX_Store Месяц назад

And if anyone would like to suggest the style of music for the second song, add your suggestions here!

@mikeymaiku Месяц назад

@@DroiX_Store i took it as "maybe turn the music down by a little when inserting into video in post"

@DroiX_Store Месяц назад

Yeah it could be that :) I will level out the music a bit lower next time. Thanks. The offers still stands for the music choices though!

@@DroiX_Storei responded but now my comment is gone. Maybe it didnt like the link to the song. But any Leo’s “the wolf” is a great song. Also i hope my comment came over as lighthearted as intended.

@RobyMicrobi 24 дня назад

At 9:08 , that is insane input delay on the d-pad! Not sure if that has to do with the handheld, or the emulator settings, but it's painful to watch...

@DroiX_Store 24 дня назад

It might be the game or the emulator, I never noticed it to be honest. I am often viewing on the camera monitor while playing, as the angle of the handheld isn't always easy to see, so I am used to playing with small delays.

@mushtaqshah9390 Месяц назад

For the 1080 p version what do think the screen on time will be ? Also , are there any gpu drivers available for this chopset ? Yuzu is discontinued but how does does the performance of yuzu on this comapred woth the odin 2 ? Thank you

@DroiX_Store Месяц назад

The 1080P may have better battery life as its working less than than 1440P drawing more graphics. Hard to say for sure though until we have the actual device. We mention in the video that the performance for the games that had small lags on the Odin 2 were smoother on the Pocket S. But for higher demanding games you wont see a massive improvement.

@colegillgrass3373 17 дней назад

Its a difficult question to answer without tedting both back to back, tho i can say its probably less than youd expect. Early testing is showing that the panel is actually really efficient

@christianguevara6459 27 дней назад

Is it worth getting Odin 2 if you already a switch or vita ?

@DroiX_Store 27 дней назад

Depends what you want to do on it. If you have a vita then yes. If you have a Switch then it depends on which Android games and emulators you want to play.

@alexxxxxxxx Месяц назад

It does have an on screen button mapper. You need to be in-game to access it. All the other RU-vidrs have been using it and showing it.

@DroiX_Store Месяц назад

I will check again when back in the office on Monday. I am sure I checked while during a game but I might have missed it. Thanks for letting me know. I will make a short separate video showing it and add a note to the video if its working.

Odin 2 is still king...unless someone can make a better and cheaper or the same price system. Sh1tty thumbsticks like this one has no chance.

@mohdfirdaus7536 or you know, just dont go for a top of the line phone, the controller itself cost half the price of these devices, and the price jump even from the plus to the ultra is more than these device costs.
