I'm thinking about getting this thing. Not for retro emulation; just for Android games. My phone is ancient (Galaxy S9 Plus), and I've been wanting a gaming phone for a couple of years now, but I never bit the bullet and got one because paying (at least) several hundred dollars for a used ROG phone just to play Android gacha JRPGs seemed dumb.
And now here's a handheld that looks like it has all the specs that a modern, top of the line phone with a 2,000 dollar price tag would have... and it's around the price of a Steam Deck.
Now I'm thinking of just getting this and an inexpensive phone with a headphone jack and an SD card slot, like the Oneplus Nord N30; both combined would cost around the same price as a midrange phone, I could use the budget phone for listening to music and all the non-gaming related apps that I have on my S9+, and I would have a dedicated handheld for Android gaming so I wouldn't tear up my phone by leaving it running for hours, and doing auto battle stuff on it while I watch a movie or do other life stuff.
So, I thought that I would ask other denizens of the forums here. Does this plan make sense to anyone else, or is it the kind of thing that only sounds good in my head?
