AYN Odin 2 MAX Review | My FAVORITE Retro Handheld!

This is my review of the AYN Odin 2 MAX - this model is absolutely overkill and unnecessary. But I love it for what it is and I really look forward to seeing what the Odin 3 will be like in the future. They almost made a perfect handheld for me - enjoy!

Hey, I have the Odin 2 Pro in purple. It's my absolute favorite handheld when it comes to Android! But you might want to check your AetherSX2 settings again! The Odin 2 packs every PS2 game and 80% of them with 3x resolution😊 Since Yuzu is getting better and better, we could see perfect Switch emulation on the Odin 2 this year, as the Snapdragon Gen2 has more than enough power to run it !👍

[@sotosmatthew3046]

​​​@EatMe420what other android handheld has the sd8gen2 for 300 $ right now ? Some of you guys are clowning or you just clueless

[@RGB-Gamer]

@EatMe420 What device has this processor for 300 Dollars?? Say it please🤣😂

[@williamegan6756]

@EatMe420LOL. are you smoking something? For its price-to- features ratio, nothing else comes close. Or let me guess… are you one of those clueless AYANEO fanboys?

[@NinjaSushi2]

​@EatMe420if this does the same thing the other ones do but cheaper, why would you use the other ones?

[@RGB-Gamer]

He has a ROG Phone or Red Magic Phone and thinks this is it😅😂🤣

[@Honethite]

I just love the clean design of the Odin 2, looks very premium (hence the price, get what you pay for here), easily my favourite handheld design.

[@Mr.NiceGuy1986]

it will also run most switch games and will also emulate pc games through an emulator. I was running Oblivion on high settings at 30fps through Mobox emulator.

[@pwnagemuffinz]

Btw you can turn off the overlay controls on all your emulators if you just open the options and change the opacity

[@williamegan6756]

Thanks - agree with all your points! The Odin 2 is simply the best retro handheld right now, when every aspect is factored in - features, price, ergonomics, ease of use, etc. AYN did an awesome job.

[@MrRunItUp]

Yes they did!

[@peterd7009]

I have that exact model. It is awesome !!!

[@emptyedits.]

I was really looking at getting a retroid pocket 4 pro because i really liked how it looked and it's specs but after finding out what the odin 2 could do i was immediately hooked. i really wish it had the playstation analog format to make it easier to play 2d games with the d pad but the specs of the odin 2 are amazing along with its battery life and screen size. The retroid pocket is relatively small which was a downside i hated to hear.

[@mariusznowak725]

Great handheld, I was planning to buy this, but I decided to buy Ayaneo 2(used) instead, specifically because I paid the same price like Odin 2 Max.Ayaneo 2 give me the same possibilities as Odin 2 and much more !!! Easy and right choice!

[@jahmali1812]

Does all ayn devices run epic game store ?

[@phunnbaba]

Follow up with the dock would be nice. I've heard syncing multiple controllers to android devices can be a bear.

[@beautyneytiri]

there's no play store on it ?

[@N57Icarus]

Hey, do you still have your Razer Blade 14 or have you already replaced it with a current model? I would be interested

[@TechSummitTV]

I actually still own that Razer Blade 14. Haven't upgraded.

[@N57Icarus]

@@TechSummitTV very nice. Do you still use it as your main computer?

[@seekerrild4629]

Didn't turn off overlay? SMH my head. What a savage. Also, Switch, 3ds, and PS2 are the reasons to get this handheld in particular instead of something like the upcoming Retroid 4, IMO.

[@rsorry]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Dee_Lopez]

Please do video of the dock, there are barely any videos on the new dock and to see if it is actually worth it

[@PreciousFew6110]

I have the super dock with 1tb of memory installed. functions well.

[@ThePsychoghost]

The Odin 2 is the best experience on Android hands down... Sure retroid may be cheaper but for what you get it's perfect

[@gregorybolivar5712]

You can hide the onscreen buttons for every emulator apps... from your settings...🤓

[@gordonshumway9354]

I won't necessarily disagree but for me, I love the RG405V in grey for the retro vibes. Retro games on a retro themed hand held. Yes please

[@NinjaSushi2]

It's too small for me. I want it wider to fit my hands.

[@ShadyShin95]

I'm so bummed that I'm barely hearing about this, my dumb ass bought the logitech g cloud 😢😢

[@luca-draws]

Good vid but if u're reviewing this thing saying " I didn't try switch games because just get a switch" is kinda dumb. People buy this to AVOID buying a switch ( and 3ds). So yeah, wish u actually tried those

[@scartissuefilms]

He'd just say the same thing: those games don't work great on the system and you're better off playing on the original hardware.

[@luca-draws]

@@scartissuefilms that's a sweeping generalisation. Sonic mania and monster hunter have completely different requirements.

[@Pridetoons]

Odin 2 > Retroid Pocket 4

[@OxysLokiMoros]

200 dollar more.

[@williamegan6756]

@@OxysLokiMorosActually, only $100 more - get your facts right!

[@steelzepplin2012]

yup its just $100 more and worth it in every way, RP4 is nice but its still not enough of an upgrade without having to tinker to get each different game to run good enough. Odin 2 just eats through games to the point to where its the emulator not the raw power if any issues do arise, i threw a 1tb sdcard in mine and its just emulation heaven on the go.@@OxysLokiMoros

[@Tetsuo5885]

Odin 2 forever!

[@DNAMobileGaming]

The price vs performance doesn't compare $299 for a device that works for nearly everything over a device that won't handle everything still for $100 less. Not saying the RP4 Pro won't be good for most emulation but from experience after owning this for over 2 months nothing else Android wise has compared 🎉🎉🎉

[@JacobSaip-ev3em]

My Odin 2 Maxx can't even play DBZ Kakarot for switch.

[@BeamerTime354]

I have the Odin 2 max and it has been running all my emulators. Switch has been hit and miss but the emulator is early and will improve over time. By the way….your review of this device sucks. On screen controls…..no advice on settings for emulation…..you have no clue what to do when it comes to emulation!!

[@yacine4763]

The worst review ever
