Taken with my Nikon Coolpix S51 (in pink).

Anbernic RGP35XXSP on the left sporting MuOS. Fits just fine in my original GBA case!

On the right is my Miyoo Mini+ in a 3D printed hard case (from Etsy) running OnionOS.

The Anbernic is quickly becoming my go-to due to the RTC, which makes Pokemon games easier to enjoy. And being able to just flip the lid shut to sleep and power off after ten minutes is very nice. But I still vastly prefer the UI of OnionOS on the MM+.

What's everyone else carrying these days?

I picked up the small one, the miyoo mini. It's a pretty great little handheld with particularly good community support. The buttons, D-pad, and screen are excellent, and it can support up to ps1 games.

The only downside I've found with it is that my fingers can cramp up slightly if playing fast-paced games that require intense trigger or d-pad use. For short sessions it's fine, but I wish it was able to fill the hand more for certain games. There is an attachment for it that gives it a more normal controller shape, though I've held off on it.

Overall a great little device, especially for the price.
