Does this brings anything new to the table? Apart from the UI, i think ULaunchElf is still the better option for launching homebrew apps.

It is supposed to be the rival to it. But we shall see. It was talked about years ago. It just popped up again. So we shall see. You're supposed to introduce a couple new features.

It has a Quick Launcher for PS2SX.
PS2SX is a GUI for PS2PSXe and a (simple) game installer.
PS2PSXe is an emulator designed to support PS1 backups, and play them on your PS2 via USB, Network, or Internal HDD.

PS2 or PS1 (Or both)?
There's nothing to install when it comes to PS2 isos. As for PS1, if it's like POPSTARTER you convert the .bin files to .vcd, if it does that within this app it's pretty neat, though i'd think the speed would be atrocious, unless the .bin files are stored on the internal hdd instead of usb (and even then it's slower compared to on pc)..

Is it any improvement over POPSTARTER? Or is it just some new fork that builds over it?

The overall performance is worst, but it launches some games POPStarter does not.
So, it is better to have both.

Quite a lot, thanks to the integrations. Also, a completely new apps format is available for users.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
