You Need This Handheld! - Trimui Smart Pro (N64, PSP, NDS) 

Full disclosure, I’m seeing this device can be found much cheaper on websites like AliExpress. I was sent my unit by the company selling this on Amazon so my only option was to provide the Amazon link but by all means if you can find it cheaper, go for it friends. If you still want to support the channel you can by liking, commenting, and subscribing, sharing this video, and feel free to check out any of the other links in the description. Thanks friends

A few notes on this from someone that owns 2 of these, if I may. The sd cards with games typically are added in by resalers/distributors. The reason I say this is: 1) especially early on these came without one, and 2) watching lots of reviews of it I see differing rom sets and experiences. The CPU likes to run at a lower clock speed, so typically it's good to set the function (FN) switch to boost it. This allows you to have a lower, more power efficient, mode for playing easier games, but can easily bump it up for more demanding games. I think someone was talking about being able to overclock it even. It does, of course, tend to get very warm in high performance mode. I don't know why drastic didn't swap for you, stock firmware (I'm on 1.04) will when you press L1 or L2 (sorry, don't remember exactly which right now). I typically set mine to single screen when I can and only swap when I have to (I know, I'm a heathen). The stock firmware keeps getting better and better, including adding Bluetooth functionality. TBH it feels like they had awesome hardware they wanted to get out to the world, but the software wasn't ready at the time. Pointers for updating firmware: 1) get the firmware from the Trimui Github, not their website, and 2) you can have the SD card formatted exfat, but when you update the firmware make sure to have a SD card formatted FAT32! For some reason it matters when updating only. I hope that saves someone from the frustration I had. Also there is an active and growing community behind this device that are working on things like TomatoOS that adds a layer of configurations on top of the stock firmware, and individual enhancements like Portmaster. Look, it's not a perfect device, but there is no such thing (out of the box at least?), but it is a great device that just keeps getting better and better.

I love my Trimui Smart Pro. Feels great in the hand and screen looks beautiful. So far GBA is my most played system on it and I always go back and grab it over my switch or any other handheld lately.

Plus it's only $60 with games and free shipping on allie express. Beautiful screen too!!!

I have the rg556, but trimui smart pro is the console that we bring when we go out, its my sons favourite, probably because of the size.

$99 on amazon? This device cost and is from aliexpress for $50 (bio)

I love that you left that accidental drop of the consoles 😆 Great stuff as always Portly!

I bought it from AliExpress for around $50. One week later, it fell from my pocket and, despite a light fall, both the right and left buttons stopped working... Know it's pretty fragile

I love this amazing console. I am not an expert, but it is so easy to add your favorites games. I replaced a lot of the heavy psp roms for the games I truly like (mostly jrpgs). GBA games look spectacular. And PS1 games too. I think this Trimui Smart Pro is a little miracle.

I love how it handles sega Saturn and dresmcast. Psp is very good now too and dev support is alive, very good chipset

The TrimUI is my go-to for arcade emulation, both MAME and FBNeo. Everything from CPS 1-3 to the Neo Geo library runs smoothly, and even more obscure titles from publishers like ICS run great. (Martial Masters is my prime example of a good ICS game.). So for arcade-oriented gaming, I recommend the TrimUI Smart Pro.

flashed it to 104. my buttons are good, mine came with no defunct. Just added a glass screen protector and a wrist lanyard. Added a bunch of good games like Final Fantasy 7, Metal Gears, Legacy of kain, Grandia etc etc. Cant wait for 1.0.5

Looks good! Thanks!!

Bought one! Cant wait!

I find the clicky dpad actually very good for Street Fighter 2 hadokens and shoryukens similar to the Retroid Pocket 3 Plus Vita style dpad.

good review, I like the idea of out of the box working. sucks that it has all the bloat, but I think if someone were to remove the bloat and just upload their own roms, this system would be good for that. Suggestion. Make a video on how to clear the old stuff out and add better custom ones?

The analog movement for Mario64 is more of an issue of N64 emulation not being able to replicate the n64 analog stick movement, nothing to do with the quality of sticks. I remember looking into this when playing DK64 on the wii u. It's cause emulation need something to convert digital movement into analog or something along those lines.

Superb device. I'm using it for a while and it rocks!

Good quality review 👍 wish I got one before it rose in price.

Every youtuber doesn't like the same things, but recommended it only because they were sent it for free

I hope the community comes out with a custom OS that will add a video player app into it. Watching anime on this our be Amazing

Great review. I think the form factor is cool, but since it’s less pocketable, I prefer the 35xx H for most retro gaming on the go and an Odin2/retroid p4 pro for this form factor with added gamecube/ps2/wii emulation. Anyway, never thought I’d own so many portable gaming consoles. 😅 #somanygreatoptions

its amazing video thanks!

I wouldn't put NDS in the video description if it is not going to run that good. Otherwise everything was a very good video and the sleep function I think is the most solid selling point

Awesome video; On a side note, has anyone ever told you resemble Jack Black.

The Pokemon games don't work on this device. You can use the device to save game play only until you are forced to save game play in the game(Emerald-Battle Tent Slateport Site), then it gives an error that it can't save and it is game over. Also, you can't play Donkeykong 64 as jumping from ropes isn't possible. Starfox 64 is pretty difficult to play.

I was thinking about purchasing TSP. I was curious about the performance of the analog controller. Your analysis helped me make a decision. Thank you

I was going to wait until the odin 3 mini or retroid pocket 6 to pull the trigger on a nearly perfect ps2/gamecube handheld but damn for the money (50 bucks on aliexpress) you really cant beat the value. This would be an awesome little device to mess around with until then.

You forgot to mention you can set the function button for cpu performance mode. It can make many psp/dc games perform a little better at a slight cost of power. I kept it on all the time.

Great review! Would this work well for remote stream gaming using moonlight? The form factor seems like a good match.

I am not picking it up for 2 reasons. 1. It sounds like you are a lot less positive/excited about this one, compared to the something something H. Also the nintendo ds issues is a big one for me. 2. I already bought the something something H, after watching your video about that one, and the one which looks like the included nintendo switch controller. (Possibly with your link? Not sure, had to change regions as I am from the EU. So the price increased to almost 120 euro, and not sure if affiliate link worked with that transfer). Anyhow, excited to try out the H and see how that functions.

Buy the 256gb trimui smart pro. It’s AMAZING

I like that it emulates psp

Thank you sir

35xx h stock os much better than any current customs cfw’s available right now

Thanks a lot for this nice vido. So iam in europe and the price on Amazon (i cannot take your link for regional reasons) is 160 Euros, quite expenisve. On Aliexpress around 60 Euros. I never bought something on Aliexpress, so iam quite unsure about a purchase. Anyway: can you recommend the Trimui for playing Pokemon and this classic games? Does it feel good on the Trimui? thanks a lot :)

Does the games include classic Nintendo DS games?

hey man, got this and been playing GoW, but for some reason mine doesnt run as smooth as yours did in the video. When i activated the fps display, i realised it was averaging 10-15 frames haha, any idea whats wrong? PS, yes all these while ive switched on the Fn toggle mode which was set to performance boost haha, thanks!

Have you had any issues with the handheld loading a game but then none if the buttons work? I can't turn it off or turn down the volume.

Can it play pokemon Black/white or Black2/White2

what if the go to was a hacked switch?

Are there Sony 1 games? Is there a Sony 1 "Goal Storm" game? I would be glad if you answer!..

It’s alright…

I must be missing something because i just ordered it and got it out of the and turned it on, and there are nowhere near 10,000 games... or even a couple hundred at that... And i saw a guy playing games like Goldeneye and Perfect Dark... and was stoked. Cannot find them anywhere

I like it!

Does it include Nintendo DS games?

whats better this one of the anbernick RG35XX PLUS? i got the anbernick for the price but never heard about this console. is It good or better?

I need some help I got it n was trying to change configuration the psp buttons but miss clicked and now none of my buttons besides the directional pad works idk what to do

For the older Pokemon games like Red, Blue does anyone know if you can adjust the settings to give it colors as if you were playing these games on the Gameboy color?

Can u play via hdmi and connect Bluetooth controllers?

But portmaster support is in beta… at least it can run sonic mania…

Those aren't emulators!!! Those are retro handheld consoles that "play" emulators.

Does it run Patapon without input lag? Does it run Killzone: Liberation at stable 30?

You would want them to put a z1 extreme chip in the trimui , then the price will be $900 usd

Does have donkey Kong 64 ? Or Pokémon stadium

I have one and it is 64 GB of storage and there is no Mario games on there at all

Someone gave me one as a gift and after playing several games, when I turned it back on all the games had disappeared, it's as if the memory had been erased. Do you know how to fix it? By the way, the device was new.

So there's no overlay for NDS games? :(

NDS sometime they game cannot play😢😢..version 1.0.4..model number TG5040😢

Does this have Zelda Minish Cap in English?

What about the battery life

Did it support movies

Does anyone know if it works with retro achievements

Can it play ps1 games if not, what’s the best one to do that

If I bought this device the first thing I would do is delete every single Pokemon game.

Looks like a Vita kinda with the sticks

Does this play Sega Saturn?

Do I? I have the delta app on my iPhone lolol no money spent

can it run PS2 games? and the PSP games, can it run 3d games like GTA Vice City etc.

No I don’t.

Hello, does it have android system? Can we play android games on it like genshin?

the problem is that u can't save the game in these emulator

Hello please what is the game at 09:16 ? thank you

Can you cheat on Nintendo DS? Can you install cheats on any thanks?

can someone tell me if this can run a few ps2 games? :( im so ready to buy thissss

Amiga emulator work on it?

Is that persona lol

And what's the problem with putting custom Firmware on any device? Takes literally few minutes. Pointless argument
