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.

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".

Nice video! I've just recently upgraded from my OnePlus 6 8gb 128gb to a OnePlus 8 pro 12gb ram 256gb, I'm going to install a custom rom on my old OnePlus 6 and use it primarily for emulation with an Nvidia shield controller thanks for your video 👍
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
You've just given me the idea to turn my cracked note 8 into a mini console! I could strap it into my dex pad, run that gaming launcher and a bunch of roms and connect my sn30 pro + and bam I've got a tiny console more powerful than a raspberry pi
I was hoping to hear more about input lag - from the 2 bluetooth controllers I've tried that has been the main issue and what caused me to stop using them
I'll do it in a larger controller video. With BT 5.0, your latency is going to be well under 100ms. Still higher than wired, but not the end of the world.
i have a lot of emulators (console and handheld) on my pc for both nintendo and ps, but i want to stream it to my other device like my android tv or my phone, just like steam link, is there a way to do it. Ps i dont want mirroring my screen
For the SN30 Pro(+), if you have access to a 3D printer or want to use a printing service there's an adapter that inverts the clip so that the phone hovers over the controller instead of in front and at an angle. It fixes the center of gravity. www.thingiverse.com/thing:3460395
No. PS2 Emulation on Phones is still a ways away. I imagine in the next 2 years, between the eventual CPU improvements and any software development, we may start to see more playable PS2 games on phones.
Check out the ipega 9025 its probably my favourite especially aesthetically because I really dont like how any of these look and the 9025 makes your phone look more like a legit handheld
If anyone is still listening, the best phones for price to performance in the used market are LG G8, G8x and V60. The G8 and G8X have the SD855, and can be found for about $100-150 depending on your tolerance of condition and if you don’t care to get a bad ESN phone (blocked from cellular services) and the V60 can be found for about $180-$260ish.
A couple of bullet points to make. A PS4 controller will work with bluetooth. So will a PS3. So if you have one close by, you need not spend another 40 to 50$ USD to get one of the Controllers he has, unless you want it to clip on, and you can by clips to allow a PS4 Controller to hook on as well. The dolphin emulator won't work with 32 bit devices. You are SOL if you want to play Wii and Gamecube, unless you find another emulator for these machines. A Galaxy S7 will play everything with general ease, though it is a 32 bit device. Make sure ANY cell you use for gaming has room to breathe. I used PSPPP earlier with god of war, it heated up quickly, in which case it will shutdown to avoid damage. Dig is the best frontend I have used, and the Xbox arcade theme is pretty good for it. I even found a Tandy computer emulator, and about cried like an infant because of it. Any Tandy users out there? Personally, there is a sale on A50 and A51 Galaxy phones at Walmart now. I saw the A50 for less than one hundred smackaroos, and the A51 was 125$USD. That was at my local Walmart(in store price only), and of course prices fluctuate from place to place. Do yourself a favor, these YT users are not on a budget. Buy what you can afford, do your homework first. I paid 160$USD for broken S10(which has a 2.8 snapdragon 855 processor), and fixed it with a kit I already had. If you soldiered through all of this, I do hope you find what you are looking for. We all have one thing in common, we game. Game on.

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.

is the Redmi note 5 stronger than the Samsung Note 8? I am asking because you're experience using PPSSPP looks much better than mine.. Specially on god of war - have you played with the setting? Frame Skipping or something?
Chinese handhelds are better because zero control latency and 4:3 aspect ratio screens. Carrying around a phone and a controller is a pain in the ass and not pocketable. Plus most controllers charge from a micro USB while most phones now use Type C so you have to carry two cables. If you want to play Dreamcast or PSP, sure use a phone but the Chinese handhelds are great for classic 2D games.
I bought the gamesir that you have and I get it today. Hopefully I like it but if not I can just return it. Can you get the gamesir to work with ps3? I know they say it's not meant to work with ps3 and is meant for pc and android but similar controllers work with ps3 so I was curious.
This phone can almost handle every emulator it got god of war to run then you know it's good cause that's one of the higher graphic games to run 🤔🤔🧐🧐 I'm impressed

The G8 and G8X have the SD855, and can be found for about $100-150 depending on your tolerance of condition and if you don’t care to get a bad ESN phone (blocked from cellular services) and the V60 can be found for about $180-$260ish.

Will this work with an iPhone
A couple of bullet points to make. A PS4 controller will work with bluetooth. So will a PS3. So if you have one close by, you need not spend another 40 to 50$ USD to get one of the Controllers he has, unless you want it to clip on, and you can by clips to allow a PS4 Controller to hook on as well. The dolphin emulator won't work with 32 bit devices. You are SOL if you want to play Wii and Gamecube, unless you find another emulator for these machines. A Galaxy S7 will play everything with general ease, though it is a 32 bit device. Make sure ANY cell you use for gaming has room to breathe. I used PSPPP earlier with god of war, it heated up quickly, in which case it will shutdown to avoid damage.
Dig is the best frontend I have used, and the Xbox arcade theme is pretty good for it. I even found a Tandy computer emulator, and about cried like an infant because of it. Any Tandy users out there?
Personally, there is a sale on A50 and A51 Galaxy phones at Walmart now. I saw the A50 for less than one hundred smackaroos, and the A51 was 125$USD. That was at my local Walmart(in store price only), and of course prices fluctuate from place to place. Do yourself a favor, these YT users are not on a budget. Buy what you can afford, do your homework first. I paid 160$USD for broken S10(which has a 2.8 snapdragon 855 processor), and fixed it with a kit I already had.
If you soldiered through all of this, I do hope you find what you are looking for. We all have one thing in common, we game. Game on.
My satiate controller broke after a week of use. Every time I extend the controller the whole left side of the controller doesn’t work.
Taki Udon I have a 8.1 TCL Android trace phone.can I get all Atari Sega Genesis Saturn N64 SNES Gameboy virtual boy GameCube Wii NDS NES PS1,2,and 3 Dreamcast psp arai jaguar Sega CD games on my android.and could I connect more than one Bluetooth controller to my Android phone
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.

is the Redmi note 5 stronger than the Samsung Note 8? I am asking because you're experience using PPSSPP looks much better than mine.. Specially on god of war - have you played with the setting? Frame Skipping or something?
Chinese handhelds are better because zero control latency and 4:3 aspect ratio screens. Carrying around a phone and a controller is a pain in the ass and not pocketable. Plus most controllers charge from a micro USB while most phones now use Type C so you have to carry two cables. If you want to play Dreamcast or PSP, sure use a phone but the Chinese handhelds are great for classic 2D games.
bruh, im still using my asus snap636 phone. It works like a charm even tho i need to control my emotion every time it ran out of memory
I bought the gamesir that you have and I get it today. Hopefully I like it but if not I can just return it. Can you get the gamesir to work with ps3? I know they say it's not meant to work with ps3 and is meant for pc and android but similar controllers work with ps3 so I was curious.
I have a Redmi note 7 with SD660 but still my geekbench never cross 1000 on multi core while your device have 636 and have over 4000 on multicore why?
I've downloaded the Dig Theme, but how do I install it?
This phone can almost handle every emulator it got god of war to run then you know it's good cause that's one of the higher graphic games to run 🤔🤔🧐🧐 I'm impressed
Well I use Redmi note 9s with Snapdragon 720G and the emulation performance is best. It can emulate wii games with studders. I would recommend Redmi note 7 or Redmi note 8 second end
Hi guys. New here. Just wondering i been playing ff7 till finish disc one then unable to change disc2 as my emulator unable to detect the save file? Just wondering if emu use in this video able to support change of disc?
I congratulate you on a fantastic video, you had so much to cover but you done a great job at weaving in and out of a messy mine field of mobile tech and peripherals.
Thank you so much!
Sorry dude, but of course you can use your main phone. What are you talking about?
So is the sn30 pro better to hold a phone with? Cause i have the regular sn30 and youre right you cannot hold the phone this way even if its just for one minute. I wondered why they even bothered making a bracket
I’ve had an iPhone 8+ for 3 years and it’s not “old” to me but I’ll probs buy a cracked android phone for cheap and replace the screen for gaming
My old phone is an iPhone 6, my current phone is a Samsung Galaxy s8, so maybe I'll do this later....much later.
My current phone is my handheld emulator.... Kinda like 2 in 1.... Still im getting bored only be able to play ps1 and psp games...
I'm using a Mi 9T with SD730 SoC and Super Smash Bros. is getting frame drops in Dolphin MMJ. Why?
Not worth it. Poor battery life, uncomfortable to assembly hold and use... I own high end phone and 8bitdo gamepad and still looking for a console to buy
His old phone is better than my actual phone. Living in a third world country is quite sad for buy tech/"nerd" stuff
Too bad I have a shoddy Moto C Plus that can barely run Terraria with low settings and gets "App is not responding" all the time.
I really want to do this with my Infinix Hot 10 cause it has 128GB of RAM andialways want a emu device
Your Geekbench score was waaay off. The newest top end phones don't even top 3000 multi-core score
Geekbench 4
@@TakiUdon Why
Súper Pro Tip. If you own a gaming Pc download steam link and you can play heavier emulators and even Pc games.
I wish someone would make a better ps2 emulator for android. Idk why nobody is working on one it's only the most popular console ever.
*_That's not an old phone. That's decent._*
