As much as I would love to agree with you there was a study that people change their phones every 2 to 3 years, I personally try to make mine last at least 3 or 4 but in reality most manufacturers support their phones with updates every 3 to 4 years, after that you are on your own with security. Sucks I know but it is what it is.

[@EpsilonChurchRVB]

I've had my iPhone 6S Plus almost as long as it's been released (approximately 5 years ago) now that's an old phone right there, but it's still kicking and being updated by Apple. Yeah soon enough, it might not get updated anymore, but 2 years isn't old enough, unless you somehow can't take care of your phones and need replacements every now and then. I'd understand if it's considered old for at least 4 or 5 years after you had it, but 2 years is definitely not old enough. I'd say that's a rich person's perspective if they consider a 2 year old phone to be "old".

The 636 was a mid range chip when it launched and even now no dedicated retro gaming console (even $200+ ones like the GPD XD+) gets even close to its performance. Recent flagships (855/865 chips) can even run the majority of PS2 games smoothly now. Even if you don't have top end chipsets, most people will get far better value for money just investing in a decent controller setup. The only real reason to go dedicated is for the nostalgia factor of owning a handheld console.

Thanks. Though, I really don't think a small screen (~5-7 inches) is very suitable for anything above 16-bit console emulation.

I tried for a long time to use my phone for emulation because of the power that these have, I tried every controller in this video, mounting the dualshock, the switch types, but it was a big nope. The emulation quality that you can achieve with them is not disputed. The immediacy by having all in one case with included controls, designed exclusively to be ready to play that the portable consoles give you will never be replaced by a phone, I even arrived to the point to skip android-based consoles too, for the simple fact of having another apps, web browsers and functionalities at hand that take you out of the gaming experience. Experience told me that my search will always be 100% dedicated consoles.

[@lonitro725]

Lightweight custom roms for Android are out there. You root your phone to flash them, use Pico GApps or don't use GApps at all, root after flash to remove simple bloatware (calculator, whatever you don't want) and unroot/deroot. Then install a launcher of your liking, or use DIG. The Moto G5s Plus is a good phone, and there's a very good and light Android custom ROM for it.

@M. Grande As in bluetooth controllers? I have the Ipega PG-9023 and PG-9083. The 9023 is wider with its grips so your hands defo feel wider apart cause of that too so a little odd..but feels ok. But I prefer the 9083 over the two. On the 9023 if I havent been using it for a while it loses its charge whereas the 9083 if I havent used for a while and turn it on it still has charge. Also has a few less function keys which I prefer being simpler whereas the 9023 has extra tiny function keys like turbo etc. These are suited for tablets and also fit my Mi Max 2 but for most phones you would need a controller suited for phones as using one of these might not actually fit as well for a phone, being to big and not being able to secure the phone tightly enough..

Which dolphin-mmj build do you use in the video exactly or rather which version offers best performence for a majority amount of games in your opinion?

[@TakiUdon]

The one linked on that GitHub page is very good for 99% of the time. There was one version that was removed because he didn't release the code. I think it was 10318 or something like that.

How đid you cònfig Citra to make it run so smooth? I have a Redmi 6 pro and can't even play a 2d game properly.

[@TakiUdon]

Adreno GPUs are the best for Citra. Mali is very bad.

[@kikyou759]

Yes even the note 10+ exynos struggles badly to play most 3ds games, I understand now why people were complaining about the SD vs exynos in the same phone but very different at the same time

yep this is pretty much my set up. Except using Moga Pro controller.

[@KyubiMaster100]

People don't understand that anything above Snapdragon 835 and with the bluetooth controller are still more expensive than the retro handhelds that are coming out. People will have to be lucky to get something under 100$. I personally have a US Samsung Galaxy Note 9 with the Wee 2T and that wasn't cheap.

Nice!! Which PC streaming app do you use?

[@TakiUdon]

I have an NVIDIA card, so I always use Moonlight+NVIDIA GeForce Experience since it works so well with no fuss. Steam Link does the same job, but sometimes it can be a hassle remapping buttons on the fly.

[@Maurilustrador]

@@TakiUdon so both of them not only works with PC games or in case of steam, only steam, but with other apps too like emulators? PS2 in your case. That's what I understood.

[@dtona_official9710]

Ive done the same years ago with Gba, Ds,Ps1&psp games on my old phone 😁

You should check put the razer phone 2 with the junglecat controlers, very close to a nintendo switch feel
