I would say that the S20 fe is probably one of the most ideal phones to turn into a retro gaming console due to it being well priced, having a great SOC, having a fully featured usb-c port and finally being the last gen S series phone to still support micro SD cards.

The Sony Xperia series also support SD cards and headphone jack.

[@nekrohatred9547]

I have the s20 fe. It runs really good and smooth. Youre gonna have to configure settings in certain emulators like dolphin to get smooth gameplay but most of the time - and especially for retro games - it runs amazingly well. With my 1tb sd card, i have tons of gba games to ps2. Id still like to build a handheld just because the battery runs out so fast on your phone when gaming.

[@lifehackertips]

⁠@@pcigrock5874I second the LG v60. Still has snapdragon 865 and all of them are 8gb ram and it’s half the price of the Samsung s20 FE in this video. V60 is actually better, wonder why he didn’t use it instead of the Samsung?

I can confirm all this. I have the 21 FE with the Gamesir x2 pro and that one can handle Wii and 3DS without a problem too and that in power saving mode! With this you have ~5 hours of battery life while gaming the harder to emulate systems. Best buy ever.

s9+ is a beast, I use it in a similar manner, but attached a much larger display.

[@G_Pheno]

For anyone miffed by the aspect ratio on Steam Remote play, you CAN play in "full screen" but requires a bit of work. You just need to create a custom resolution in your display settings to match your device. For example, I swap my display to 3200x1440 (because playing in landscape). Then if a game allows for it, I change display settings in-game to 21:9 aspect ratio. Makes for a wonderful experience when playing Monster Hunter Rise on the go :)

I was kind of tempted to get one of those handhelds but most of the time, it makes no sense versus using your phone or buying a phone and dedicating it to gaming like youve done in this video.

For my new phone in 2022 I went back to a 4 year old limited edition Copper Samsung Note 9 512Gb (refurbished) mint condition phone. It went from an original sale price of 1400USD to 293USD.Then I paired it with the heavily discounted Razer Junglecat (from 100USD to 35USD).This controller comes with 3 phone bumpers, one of which is specifically for the Note 9. It plays Diablo Immortal flawlessly with all the buttons already mapped. The L2 controller button also acts as a dedicated camera shutter button with the joycon making for a great camera grip. I can't say enough good things about this older setup. Still has the 2k screen whereas the newer next model went down to a 1080 panel. Still got the S-pen and Dex. Speakers are better than the previous Note 8. Still rocks the Micro SD card and a high quality headphone jack for solid audio recording with any line in microphone (I use it for making videos at work). It's an SD 845, but still plays my entire PS1, N64, and PSP collections. As well as 70% of my GameCube collection. I tried googling a review of these two products together and couldn't find any. It's weird because they were literally made for each other.

@ETA PRIME I really love this content, and I'm very impressed :O. I was waiting for your next review on ktr1 handheld but after this video I have to think about it. Which one is best for emulating? Is there other phone you recomend for emulating? (I'm searching for anything running till ps2 and swtch that can be used to play on a monitor). Thanks in advance!

can you run linux on galaxy s20 on dex? if it was possible, this would make a great backup device for work/web developpement

[@brigda3898]

You could, via an emulator or a VNC server through Termux. Also for Snapdragon devices there is a project called the "Renegade Project" aimed at bringing Windows/Linux and other distros on Qualcomm Snapdragon phones using a custom UEFI firmware. Also if you just want to do web development on Dex, there are some Android apps that can do that.

@@brigda3898 i can then use a vnc client on dex right? Interesting

Let's say that money is not a deciding factor, and instead I want to get an s20 ultra. What difference will that make in performance, especially in regard to Gamecube and PS2 emulation?

during the viewing of the specs 3:39 it shows a wallpaper on the Galaxy Phone. What is the name of the app or wallpaper so I can get it?
