👉 Stubbs shares his final thoughts (for now) on the Odin 2 Portal Pro after in-depth testing the prototype model, and now again with this final retail review unit from AYN. He compares against the previous prototype, Retroid Pocket 5 / AYANEO Pocket EVO / Loki Zero, shares Android/streaming/emulation gameplay, and lets you know if its worth your hard-earned dollar bucks!

The Portal is a high-performance Android handheld, featuring a 7-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with 1080p resolution and 800 nits brightness. Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and Adreno 740 GPU, it offers configurations up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage with microSD support. The console supports Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.3, and Android 13. With an active cooling system and customizable performance settings, it excels in both native Android gaming and emulation, supporting platforms like PSP, GameCube, PS2, Switch, Vita and even x86 PC games via Winlator. Priced fairly competitively starting at $329, it balances performance, portability, and value in an enticing package.
